Ten years after the slaughter at Honey Island Swamp. Andrew Young (Parry Shen) is the only survivor and author of a successful bestseller. He has also given several interviews and was accused of the massacre but considered not guilty in court. Victor Crowley (Kane Hodder) has disappeared, and his place has become a touristic attraction. When Andrew's agent, the drug-addicted Kathleen (Felissa Rose), tells him that he shall be interviewed at Honey Island Swamp, he does not accept. But when she tells him that she has negotiated a one-million-dollar payment, he agrees to go. He takes a private airplane with the host of a talk show Sabrina (Krystal Joy Brown), who is his ex-wife, and her crew formed by the audio technician Austin (Brian Quinn); his videographer girlfriend Casey (Tiffany Shepis); the gay makeup artist Jay (Tezz Yancey); and the production assistant Zach (Blake Woodruff). Out of the blue, one of the engines blows up and Jay and Zach immediately die. Meanwhile, the wannabe director of slash movies, Chloe (Katie Booth); her boyfriend Alex (Chase Williamson); and her friend Rose (Laura Ortiz), go to the Honey Island Swamp with the intention of making a trailer of a movie about Victor Crowley to convince investors to financially support her project She casts the local tour guide Dillon (Dave Sheridan) and they meet him at the swamp. Rose researches YouTube looking for the voodoo curse that brought Victor Crowley to life. Suddenly they hear the airplane crashing and Dillon and Rose run to help the possible survivors. Meanwhile, Victor Crowley is revived by the voodoo curse on the YouTube, and his crime spree begins.
"Victor Crowley" (2017) is the last breath of an exhausted franchise. At least, I hope. The plot should have finished in "Hatchet III", when Marybeth destroyed the notorious serial killer. Anyway, this fourth sequel is funny, with many hilarious lines and silly characters. The ultimate sacrifice of Dillon must be the ending of this franchise, but the cameo of Marybeth in the credits is a serious menace that Adam Green does not want to stop. The gory special effects and make-up are again the best offered by this movie. My vote is five.
Title (Brazil): "Terror no Pântano 4" ("Terror at the Swamp 4")
