Watching Hatchet 3 (2013) (Decker Shado video)

Wiki Article

Hatchet 3 is the 2013 horror film of the Hatchet series. It tells the story of Victor Crowley, his murderous rampage through Louisiana's Honey Island Swamp. Kane Hodder plays Victor Crowley and Brian Quinn is Deputy Winslow. Rileah Vanderbilt plays Misty.



The film's greatest strength is its use of practical special effects. Hatchet 3 uses a lot less CG effects than other horror films. This allows some truly frightening moments to be recorded throughout the film.

The cast is solid, with Kane Hodder proving to be an intimidating villain. The dialogue is hilarious and cheeky that it could be like a classic 1980s horror film. There are also certain moments of genuine comedy throughout, which (click information) provide a comical contrast to the heart-wrenching action.

The problem is that the budget is so limited (reportedly $1 million), most locations in the film are reused locations from previous films in series. For instance the exact boathouse location was featured twice in the film. A lot of the locations feel like they've been reused from other films in this franchise. Hatchet or Hatchet II may be able to recognize it as familiar, which can lead to the film feeling almost too familiar.

Overall, I enjoyed Hatchet 3 even though it was very similar to previous entries in this series--it offered plenty of gory thrills and some entertaining performances by the actors.
