Hatchet 3 - awesome? (Decker Shado movie review)

Wiki Article

Hatchet 3 (2013) is the third film of horror of the Hatchet Series. It follows the story of Victor Crowley's ongoing adventures as well as his escapade across Louisiana's Honey Island Swamp. Kane Hodder plays Victor Crowley, Brian Quinn portrays Deputy Winslow, Rileah vanderbilt portrays Misty.



Its practical special effects are the film's greatest strength. Unlike many modern horror movies that heavily rely on CG effects, Hatchet 3 features mostly realistic makeup effects and sets, resulting in some truly terrifying moments throughout the film.

The cast gives a solid performance with Kane Hodder being the most terrifying villain. The dialogue feels like a 1980s slasher film. It is witty and funny (click clips) enough. There are some funny moments that stand out against all the heart-wrenching scenes.

Unfortunately, the film's budget was restricted to just $1 million. That means many locations featured in the film are repeated from previous films. A boat house is used twice, and the majority of it feels like a rerun of other films. It's almost like it's familiar to those who've watched Hatchet or Hatchet 2.

Overall, Hatchet 3 was an enjoyable show. I enjoyed the violent thrills it offered and the entertaining performances by the cast members.
