Customer Review: OVERRATED BUT STILL GOOD
After making a daring escape from a military base, a group of robbers, Corbin, (Ted Vernon) Curry, (Michael David Sims) Roxanne, (Kristina Sanborn) Al, (David James Campbell) and Bert, (B.J. Turner) lose their money in a cornfield, and after dealing with a traitor in their ranks, the group comes upon a small, abandoned house on the grounds. Thinking it’s the perfect place to regroup, they hole up and decide on a plan of action. After trying to make an escape, they find the scarecrows in the field are alive and hinting them down one by one.
The Good News: This actually wasn’t as bad as I thought. One of the best things about this film is that it conjures up an effective and genuinely creepy atmosphere. The mystery surrounding the scarecrows is absolutely creepy, as they look just right and the aura created from them is remarkable. So much is derived from them and their look that they literally carry the film in the beginning. The biggest example of this is the first romp through the stalks. It’s a very long, drawn out sequence built around the faces and suspense from the scarecrows. A lot of it’s success is based on the scarecrows. It’s also pretty gory for what it is, and there’s some nice blood-splatter. The kills are nice and brutal as well, and feature a good dose of blood. There’s a hacksaw used to cut off a hand, a sickle repeatedly stabbed into the leg, and several stabbings. A gag with a bag up in a tree and the fact that every murder always features a graphic dissection doesn’t hurt it either. It’s simplistic story is also a big plus, keeping it upbeat along the way and putting all the focus where it should be.
The Bad News: There’s several things in here that didn’t really sit all that well. First, and most aggravating was that the majority of conversations were held over headsets, and often times made it seem like no one on-screen was actually speaking. It’s incredibly irritating and makes it completely disjointed. This makes it worse as it’s during the best part of the film. There’s also an uncut version around that is far gorier than what is given, which seems believable as what’s on display is kinda choppy at times and looks like it was edited. But outside of a few other very small nit-picks, this wasn’t all that bad. Not great, but not bad.
The Final Verdict: A little bit undeserving of it’s status as a cult classic, but it’s still a genuine creepy, features a memorable villain, and has some great moments spread throughout. There is some merit to it, though, so give it a chance. It’s fast enough that it won’t hurt much.
