Featured reviews
First of all, the plot summary is wrong. That is not what this movie is about. Second, it doesn't matter because this is the worst movie ever. I think the actors had microphones in their shoes because the dialogue was all muffled and their foot steps were extremely loud. Never see this movie.
This film is somewhat intestering example of grade Z filmmaker, from a guy who was responsible for something called "Carnival of Blood" before moving on to hard core porno. Some footloose hippie types move out to a western ranch to help a friend, but the headless horsemen starts knocking them off, then there is a surprise ending. There seems to be no script, but the actors do a surprisingly good job just sort of cobbing the scenes together. It's kind of fun if you are in the right mood, the place kind of looks like the Spann ranch, and they sure don't make them like this anymore. The "Something Weird" video comes with trailers and other stuff
I do enjoy these "seat-of-their-pants", "Hey gang! Let's make a movie" type of films. It's done for cheap, likely with little scripting and shot like someone is think they are making high art.
I really wish the print was better. I want this remastered!

Can't argue much with the previous reviewer, only to add if you like REALLY bad movies, you might get a few kicks out of this one. Featuring some unintelligible dialog, seriously cheesy visual "effects", and beyond confusing plot developments, this movie contains enough dated "hippie" music and catchphrases guaranteed to make you laugh. Plenty of technical goofs abound, like shooting at night (or is it day? hard to tell with all the colored filters), head scratching jump cuts, and awful voice overs. Throw in some drug use, thoroughly unexciting gun play, and curious "blood less" gore, and you've got a great way to snicker for an hour and change.
Mark Callahan inherits a cowboy ghost town from his uncle.He takes his fiancée Brenda and a group of hippie friends there,but it seems that a legendary Headless Horseman is prowling the area and scaring people to death..."Curse of the Headless Horseman" by Leonard Kirtman is even worse than his earlier horror schlock "Carnival of Blood".The story is boring,the acting is amateurish and there is almost no blood.Still "Curse of the Headless Horseman" offers some jaw-droppingly psychedelic moments for the lovers of low-budget trash.The faking of headless horseman is priceless.4 decapitated heads out of 10.A chore to sit through.
