Creamed By The Corn
Husk was an enjoyable and original film.
Call it Night of The Living Scarecrows if you will.
There are some flashback scenes that explain why and how the events are taking place.
The explanation was no big revelation or anything groundbreaking but other than that it was fun and original.
If you like the idea of Zombie Scarecrows with nails hammered through their fingers as a weapon then you will like this.
Even though there wasn't non stop action I was still entertained,the acting was top notch and the story pulled me in.There were a few genuine scares as well,It had a very creepy somewhat old school feel to it.
There isn't any gore to speak of, but there is quite a bit of blood and slaughtering going on.That said, most of the gruesome details are left off camera and to your imagination.
I liked it and thought it better than I expected.
I wasn't fond of the abrupt ending but all in all a very good effort for this killer scarecrow flick.
CEREAL KILLER
5 college kids ( 4 males, 1 female) are on their way to the lake for a little R&R. They are traveling on some back road through corn country when suddenly a group of crows opt to sign a suicide pact and crash into the windshield of the vehicle. In a situation such as that, the only logical choice is to drive your vehicle off the road into a ditch.
When the driver comes to, the passenger who was riding shotgun is gone. There is no phone reception. They do see a sign on the ground with Gen. 4:11 on it. This is a reference to the cursed ground caused by the spilling of Abel's blood. The writers failed to capitalize on the scripture by producing an earth tremor after each death or by having a phonograph which plays old sermons and starts by itself.
The cornfield is not planted in rows for easy access, but rather in a haphazard arrangement so college kids, who have no sense of direction, can easily get lost walking in a straight line.
There are a few things...
It is OK to Disagree: I Did Not Like This Film
I have noticed that fans of this film cannot live with disagreement. They trash negative reviews of this movie. If it is such a good film, you should not worry about what others think. Also, it is ok to disagree.
I like watching horror films, but this one never really pulled me in. The major problem with the film has been expressed in other reviews. It does not do much at all in terms of plot development. Instead, within a few minutes, the main story has already exploded -- the slasher scarecrow is already stalking.
The production quality was pretty good. The film is very watchable from a visual perspective. The acting is ordinary. But the plot is basically nonexistent. To make matters worse, it starts the way so many other horror films begin. A group of young white kids are in a car, and the driver isn't really paying attention to the road. They soon have an accident. No one is injured, but they will now be stalked by something horrific. Even with that well worn...
