The Legend of Halloween Jack

This is one of the worst horror movies ever. Don't waste your time. The best part of this movie is the clips shown from old horror movies. The budget for this movie must've been about $ 100.00.

Reminded me a lot of that film with other elements from Halloween, My Bloody Valentine and Nightmare on Elm Street thrown in. So hardly a thumbs up for originality but it did have a pretty good atmosphere and style. The best aspect of the movie is Jack himself. These slasher movies live or die on the killer and the scarecrow design of this one is very cool. At times you root for him because some of the characters are pretty annoying. 5/10

Overly long & drawn out dialogue scenes, cap gun sounding gun shots, horribly edited deaths, this movie is pretty bad. I gave it an extra star for the very cool costume the ghoul wears in the movie (would be EPIC come Halloween time). Unfortunately, we don't see much until the very end of the film. Too little too late. Even the film being set around Halloween couldn't save it. Don't waste your time!

Despite a very formulaic plot the film succeeds in being a watchable and at times enjoyable romp through the usual slasher tropes. Halloween Jack looks great and the kills are very effectively executed. There is the occasional unexpected twist that helps break the predictability (mostly involving the psychotic mayor) and the ending is quite satisfying. Main appeal will be to fans of old school slasher movies.

You see so many of these low budget horror dvds endlessly referencing the horror heyday of the eighties now, you could throw a rock in Walmart and hit a fanboy homage.but this is one of the better efforts some well constructed death scenes and a very memorable killer.it doesn't take itself too seriously so theres a fun feel to it.still lots of references to other horror films which is overused in movies but if your a fan of old slasher flicks you could do lot worse.
