Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

riggsman Where should I start. I bought this movie on VHS last halloween. I am a big fan of cheesy horror films and figured it would be entertaining. This seems like a poor quality student project. First, there is the actual visual quality. Some posts talk about tis being a 16mm film. I seem to doubt that. The quality looks like 3rd or 4th generation VHS. The colors are so faded that it at times seems almost black and white. The movie starts out bad and just doesn't get any better. It starts with a Jogger running through the woods, who stops in the middle of the woods to eat a candy bar. What kind of exercise fanatic stops to eat a candy bar? Anyway, she gets chased and killed with such great lines like "oh please don't kill me." Definately not an academy award winner. Then a credit sequence that has nothing to do with the movie. I don't want to ruin the movie for anyone that wants to waste an hour or so to watch it. It starts out bad a doesn't get any better. The poor casting consists of people that not only can't act but are totally wrong for the role. A 40 year old guy plays a high school student. terrible. some of the other high school students are also way to old to play the role. For some reason the film maker thought it would be cool to give the characters one letter names, J, Z, Mr E(trying to be clever. mystery) The dialogue is trite and meaningless. It doesn't make sense half the time. The lighting is something out of a low budget porn movie. If it is night a person would not be completely illuminated from the front. The acting is horrible and the directing and editing didn't seemed to have helped. The establishing shots shown over and over again are terrible and obviously nothing more than filler to get it to feature length. I would say that watching it is a must for film students. It was very inspirational in the fact that a movie made so poorly could get such a large distribution. I have shown it to someone before one of my films. It is so poorly done, it makes my films look like the were made by Spielberg. But I did buy it and I don't feel bad about it because even though it isn't good by any means it is an example of how indie films can get seen no matter how good or bad they are. The rating on the box was funny, It said 3 and a half stars. ( what it didn't say was that it was out of ten and not four.) Not as good as a Ed Wood Movie.

eiffel1988221443-2 stars: Meagen Lopez, Ruben Brown, Wendy Donigian, and Antonio Benedict.plot: Five high school students are forced by their princible to clean up the woods. But when it's halloween night and they live in a town called Sleepy Hollow, something very bad is destined to happen. A killer with a jack-o-lantern mask and a sword, who rides a horse beheads the students one by one. The remaining few must figure out who it is.reveiw: Even though this film is shot with a sucky camera, and a sucky ending, its pretty good. The killer looks cool with his kick arse mask! The first scene is pretty creepy, and the gore is good, although its kinda cheesy, but its low budget! Also, the heroin in this film is not the usual depressed girl who lost someone in the past and expects everyone to care.6/10.

natew34 Ok im not going to give this movie any real credit but im not totally gonna put it down. I was expecting a lot more from this movie with the awesome looking cover and writing on the front of the box that reads scream meets dawsons creek. The movie starts out good with a hand cutting out articles about missing people in sleepy hollow with some really creepy music in the back ground but thats about as good as it gets. The acting is not to good and the quality on vhs is horrible at most times in the film. Im hoping maybe that dvd will be better. I was surprised with the amount of blood in it. It did get a little better towards the end with a big battle between the stars and the horseman but when all is revealed it leaves you down with a disappointed feeling. All in all i have to say if you have nothing to do and want to see a movie and dont care if it has a real intelligent plot go a head and get this one but dont expect too much.

Room12 Whoa, this is one of the WORST movies I have EVER seen! The packaging for the film is better than the film itself. My girlfriend and I watched it this past weekend, and we only continued to watch it in the hopes that it would get better...it didn't...The picture quality is poor; it looks like it was shot on video and transferred to film. The lighting is not great, which makes it harder to read the actors' facial expressions. The acting itself was cheesy, but I guess it's acceptable for "yet another" teenage horror flick. The sound was a huge problem: sometimes you have to rewind the video because the sound is unclear and/or muffled.It holds no real merit of it's own; trying to ride on the coattails of "Sleepy Hollow." Don't bother with this one.
