Hacksaw

Absolutely love Hacksaw! Director Anthony Leone shows the appreciation and love for the genre. Hacksaw has the grit and appeal of classic 70's and 80's horror flicks and the gore is top notch practical FX no CGI in this one whatsoever! Star of the film Amy Cay nailed it! She's in the running for one of the next scream queens for sure. Its a low budget, independently made small crew film that isn't trying to be something its not. Check it out right now!

Few minutes of pointless gore at the start just to get you interested in watching this 'movie'. And then it goes to 'found footage' of talking about nothing and walking around. Then another two minutes of gore in the end of this one hour flick. Thats about it, lazy effort.

Great movie. This movie gives me a old school slasher, grind house feel. If you want gore and blood, this is the film. This film does not hold anything back. I definitely want to see what this team can do with a budget. Great film guys. Can't wait for the next one!!! 2021

I love the gore in this film. The music kicked ass. The actors were okay. You can see allot of the technical errors in the edit, the lack of budget and also with the length of the film. But for what the film is trying to be, it works.

HACKSAW is a found footage film which tells the story of a couple who while on a road trip have the misfortune of encountering a mass killer/urban legend.

I am a hardcore horror fan, but even I must admit this movie is really, really bad:

-a confusing and pointless intro that mixes gore with opening credits

-a generic and razor-thin plot that has been done a million times, with nothing original except the useless filler to achieve a runtime of just over an hour

-characters who are BOTH totally unrealistic AND supremely annoying

-a dialogue that is absolutely atrocious. A fav example:

"It will"

"Not"

"It will"

"Not"

"Will"

"Not"

"Will"

"Not"

"Will"

"Not"

...

"Aaaah, Stop it"

-a hamfisted attempt at exposition by means of insertion shots of some lame ass show that has "try hard" written all over it

-heavies who laugh evilly and pointlessly like sesame street villains

-scenes filmed in darkness so we can't tell what is going on

-practical gore effects in such close ups that you can't tell what is what

-logical gaps like a shirt that is all torn and spilling intestines suddenly being neat and undamaged a few minutes later

-mortally wounded extras that just won't the f die

-a supernatural twist so dumb you would think a six-year old thought of it

-the usual horror tropes, except executed execrably

The only positive aspect is the naturalistic acting by the beautiful Cortney Palm, but her cameo in the beginning of the film has no relevance to the rest of the movie and is essentially wasted.

Avoid.
