The film has terrible character's, awful dialogue, an inconsistent & predictable story, it has some cheesy one-liners like when the scarecrow kills someone with a shovel he ask's 'can you dig it? |
' & the so-called twist ending which is geared towards leaving things open for a sequel is just lame. |
The film moves along at a reasonable pace but it isn't that exciting & the kills are forgettable. |
You know I'm still trying to work out how someone can be stabbed & killed with a stick of corn... |
Director Itier doesn't do a particularly good job here, the kill scenes are poorly handled with no build up whatsoever which means there's never any tension as within two seconds of a character being introduced they are killed off. |
Also I'm not happy with the killer scarecrow dude doing all these back-flips & somersaults through the air in scenes which feel like they belong in The Matrix (1999) or some Japanese kung-fu flick! |
To give it some credit the actual scarecrow mask looks really good & he looks pretty cool but he is given little to do except spout bad one-liners & twirl around a bit. |
Don't you think that being tied to a wooden stake in the middle of a corn filed all day would have been boring? |
I know he's a killer scarecrow but I still say he would have been bored just hanging around on a wooden stick all day! |
There's no nudity & the gore isn't anything to write home about, there's a decapitation, someones face is burnt, someone is killed with a stick of corn, someone gets a shovel stuck in their throat, some sickles are stuck in people's heads, someone has their heart ripped out & someone has a metal thing stuck through the back of their head which comes out of their mouth. |
With a supposed budget of about $250,000 this was apparently shot in 8 days, well at least they didn't waste any time on unimportant things like story & character development. |
Technically this is pretty much point, shoot & hope for the best stuff. |
If you look at the guy on the floor who has just had his heart ripped out you can clearly see him still breathing... |
The acting sucks, the guy who played Lester's mum's bloke is wearing the most stupid looking wig & fake moustache ever because he played two roles in the film & the makers needed to disguise him but they just ended up making him look ridiculous & don't get me started on his accent... |
Scarecrow has a few fun moments & the actual scarecrow himself is a nice creation with good special make-up effects but as a whole the film is poorly made, badly acted, silly, too predictable & very cheesy. |
If you want to see a great killer scarecrow flick then check out Scarecrows (1988). |
Not to be confused with the Gene Hackman & Al Pacino film Scarecrow (1973) or the upcoming horror flick Scarecrow (2008) which is currently in production. |
Scarecrow proved popular enough on home video to spawn two more straight to video sequels, Scarecrow Slayer (2003) & Scarecrow Gone Wild (2004). |
This movie is so aggrivating. |
The main character looks like he's 35 and I've seen scrawny beanpoles with more balls than this guy. |
The plot twists are so predictable its not even worth watching for the humor factor. |
Also some of the worst dialogue I've heard in 3 years, "lets go find a small animal to torture." |
Ugh..... |
I can't even continue, don't watch this pile of garbage, it was made in 8 days. |
The one highlight is the drunk dude calling the main character a faggot for drawing pictures. |
2 out of 10, unwatchable |
Holy @#%& this movie was still warm and juicy from the pile it was made with. |
I tried to watch this pile of festering waste but found it easier to slash my wrists and slug back a shooter of Lysol floor cleaner than endure more than half of the crap that was on my screen. |
I rank this well below anything I have ever watched on film or TV, and thats saying something. |
I once witnessed a cow crap in a field. |
I watched the steaming pile for a hour and a half, who knows... |
it might have moved or something. |
Well that was time better spent than watching this tripe. |
The acting was non-existent, the plot was somewhere other than on this film. |
I think I saw a cut seen early on where the plot managed to escape and was riding off in the background on the back of a old pickup truck heading to Portland in hopes of becoming a Steven King shi77er. |
Please tell me director is getting medication he so desperately needs. |
It's pretty clear he needs heavy medication and I'd willing to front the money needed for his lobotomy reversal. |
Bah... |
I can't give this review the full punch it needs because nothing this painful can ever be done justice in typed word alone. |
Let me just say that if your looking for a flick to pass some time and you see this Chilton on the rack, walk to your car, start the engine, then shove both of your fists straight into the fan until it you can't feel your bones vibrate anymore. |
Be sure to have your wallet in hand also because you were going to waste the cash anyway. |
You might as well have the privilege of wasting it yourself. |
By the way, I watched this after a "buddy" of mine sent his girlfriend over so I could see it. |
HE dint come over, SHE had too. |
Whats worse is that she had to watch this $%&@ thing TWICE! |
I heard their married now and he gets to visit his balls once a month. |
I hope it was because of this film. |
I saw this not too long ago, and I must say: This movie is terrible. |
I watch crappy movies for fun. |
Scarecreow is not fun. |
Scarecrow is stupid. |
You have an incredibly corny villain that enjoys screaming awful puns as he kills his victims(actually worse than the one contained in this sentence). |
He has his hard luck story that he uses to justify his killings. |
"Everyone picks on me. |
The only girl that thinks I'm not trailer-trash likes one of the guys that pick on me. |
I want to kill everybody. |
Wah." |
OK, I'm exaggerating. |
But the premise to this movie alone is enough to put it near the bottom of the list of crappy movies. |
Adding to what I just said, the kid's mom is promiscuous, he walks in on his mother and her current boyfriend getting it on, mom's boyfriend tells him to leave, kid refuses, insisting that he isn't going to leave his own house. |
Boyfriend chases kid into corn field. |
He kills kid right in front of mom, mom screams in terror, boyfriend is like, "OMG! |
I didn't mean to!" |
Then he tells mom not to say anything to the police about it. |
Kid was killed under a scarecrow, though. |
So, like any kid who gets murdered under a scarecrow, he comes back as a killer scarecrow with a vengeance. |
His victims "haven't been stalked like this before... |
" (Scarecrow's official tag line) To make matters worse, this movie was filmed in a whopping 8 days. |
That's right, 8 days. |
I was going to give this movie a 2, because in spite of itself, it has one or two redeeming moments. |
(They're spoilers, so I won't spoil it for you, if you actually want to see this crap.) I could have somewhat forgiven the bad acting, the horrible special effects, the abysmal script, and the bad camera work, but I simply have no respect for lack of effort on that level. |
This movie isn't nearly as good as I'm making it out to be. |
If you want to see an example of how not to make a movie, or if you enjoy watching bad movies, like I do, then watch this at your own risk. |
Everyone else should stay a safe distance away from this movie at all times. |
WOW is all i can say if your reading this is either watched it or are thinking about it. |
trust me watch it! |
i laughed so hard at so many parts of this movie the worst acting ever made is very funny! |
I cant believe they superimposed the school sign! |
I must have played that scene over and over again just to laugh more and more every time. |
If a movie like this can be made it gives us all hope in making our own movies. |
even the costume was bad. |
it looked like my 7 year old cousin could have done a better job on making it. |
heck i bet he could have written and acted better as well. |
all i know is that i have to watch the second part just so i can see if it was as bad as the first. |
its a cool idea about a killer scarecrow but a much better job could have been done. |
hopefully another killer scarecrow movie comes out, just not like this one. |
Perhaps one of the worst teenage slasher films I ever did see. |
I'll start with the bad points of t he movie, which pretty much covers the entire film. |
First of all, something no one can avoid: TERRIBLE ACTING. |
I swear they picked up some random kids off the street based on how they looked. |
Secondly, BAD/UNCONVINCING CHARACTER WORK/DEVELOPMENT. |
You hardly even know half the kids who are killed in here. |
All you figure is that they deserved it one way or another. |
The scarecrow's character was overdone, and a cheap rip-off of the other great fantasy killers such as Freddy or Pinhead. |
Next: BAD DIALOG: The Scarecrow was full of horrid one-liners that would make you laugh, only because it was so terrible. |
Lines like "Let's go find some small animals to torture!" |
really just leaves you with an eyebrow raised. |
Last but not least: Next off: BAD CASTING. |
How old was the guy who played Lester? |
Like 30? |
