Hatchet 3 film review

Wiki Article

Hatchet 3 is the Hatchet's horror film of 2013. It follows the murderous adventures of Victor Crowley across Louisiana's Honey Island Swamp. Kane Hodder stars as Victor Crowley, Brian Quinn plays Deputy Winslow and Rileah Vanderbilt plays Misty.



The film's main strength is the use of real-world special effects. Hatchet 3 uses a lot less CG effects than other horror films. This allows for some truly terrifying moments to be captured throughout the film.

Kane Hodder stands out as an intimidating villain. The cast gives a solid performance. It feels like a slasher film from the 1980s, with the dialogue being somewhat tongue-in-cheek and campy. Additionally, there are some really funny moments that provide a sense of some humor in the midst of the terrifying action.

Unfortunately, the film's budget was restricted to just $1 million. This means that a lot of locations in the movie (blog post) are repeated from previous films. A boat house is used twice, and the majority of the scenes feel like they're recycled from other films. Hatchet or Hatchet II may be able to recognize it as familiar, and this can lead to the movie feeling too familiar.

Overall, I was impressed by Hatchet 3 even though it felt very similar to prior entries in this series--it offered plenty of gory thrills and entertaining performances from its cast members.
