I watch Hatchet 3 (2013)
Wiki Article
Hatchet 3 was the horror film of the Hatchet trilogy. It chronicles Victor Crowley's ongoing adventures in Louisiana's Honey Island Swamp, as in addition to his violent murderous rampage. Kane Hodder portrays Victor Crowley while Brian Quinn plays Deputy Winslow. Rileah Vanbilt plays Misty.
The film's greatest strength lies in its use of practical special effects. Hatchet 3 uses a majority of practical makeup effects and sets. This is a departure from many horror movies nowadays that heavily rely on CG effects. The film also has several truly terrifying moments.
Kane Hodder is a standout in the ensemble, and he's an intimidating villain. It's like a slasher film from the 1980s and the dialogue is somewhat tongue-in-cheek and campy. There are also certain moments of genuine comedy throughout, which provide a comical contrast to the heart-wrenching action.
However because of the small budget (reportedly only $1 million) many locations used are re-used from earlier films in the series. The same boat house was used two times within the movie and much of it feels like it's been recycled from other films in this franchise. Hatchet or Hatchet II may find it familiar, which can lead to the movie Hatchet 3 (2013) film feeling almost too familiar.
Overall, Hatchet 3 was a excellent series overall. There were plenty of gory thrills and several great performances by the actors.
