Hatchetman

Hmm! I just rented this film not too long ago.. Well, as the saying goes.. 'Never judge a book by its cover..' But it's more like 'Never judge a Video/DVD by its cover..'

Well, after seeing this. I thought to myself 'What the hell is this..?' I've seen Friday the 13th, Scream, Halloween, and a few other teen slasher movies. But this one to me, was simply going over the top..

So, you got some serial killer going around slaying strippers.. That's mostly the plot.. Yeah! It does kind of keeps you guessing 'til the end.. and yeah! These films has been done many times before.. That's the problem!

I think nowadays there are so many slasher films.. Each one has its own set of 'tones'.. It's very hard to see which ones that would 'keep your feet on the ground'.. But Hatchet Man kept my feet off the ground.

It was watchable.. Yes! But I wouldn't put my money where my mouth is..

I'm giving this one (on a whole..) a serious 1 out of 10..! 10 out of 10 for the actresses for stripping..!

Totally diabolical..!!

The brief movie description on the back of the DVD case caught my eye and I knew this was one to add to my 'B' movie collection. College coeds by day, strippers by night and a brutal serial killer on the loose.

You will be disappointed if you are looking for a unique thriller, this certainly falls into the 'B' category.

I new what I was getting though and was pleased to find that at least the main cast, Mia Zottoli in particular, was pleasant to the eyes. The plot, twists and all, didn't matter much. After all we are talking about college coeds by day and strippers by night.

This movie(or should I say travesty?) was in the bargain bin in a local movie store for two bucks. I figured, what the hell? It can't be so bad that I would regret dishing out two dollars for it. Unfortunately, I do regret it and I'm here to warn you not to see this piece of garbage. It was a very agonizing hour and a half experience.

The acting is seriously awful, I guess should expect it from a Showtime film but still, did they think they had quality actors when they were producing this? The story is nothing but a horrible cliché slasher only the killer was stupider than any movie I've ever seen. The music and everything else are also terrible. If you made the same mistake I made by purchasing this movie, do yourself a favor and throw it out.

To start my review, I have to say this is not a great movie, but it's so insane and way out of left field that it actually becomes a bit entertaining. Crazy, makes no sense, and it could be one of the worse films ever made, and yet, it's crazy B grade tropes, bad dubbing, and lack of actual plot(seriously how did this get a R rating and it wasn't a unrated release) but the humour, the lack of any coherent plot, give this a B grade and silly slasher, a so bad it's good feel, and I enjoyed, it's silliness!!!

First i am not the type of guy who will complain about some boobies, the movie is about a serial killer who kill stripper, so then why not showing boobies? (too bad we don't see the ones of Claudia tought) The killer is not very original with his Halloween mask and of course the hatchet, but still he is kinda of fun to watch.

We have to take this movie as a low budget z-series, thats why we don't see much of the killing and mostly victims after killings, but the blood is decent and all.

Well lets say i had a great time watching it, sure some plot things are badly done etc but if you take it as a low budget pop corn movie, taking on the example of Friday the 13 and Halloween, you could end up having a good time.
