Hatchet (2006)
I decided to give this one a try as the sequel was so much fun. Well it was what I expected, fun fast consumed entertainment. But I must say it didn't bring anything new to the concept after the sequel, so basically I quite over rated the sequel as the first part already had all the stuff that made it so good. Oh well sometimes you see movies in another order than which they were planned. The story is that a group of tourist go to a "haunted" swamp tour and end up getting killed by a man/monster called Victor Crowley. Actually the idea and the history of the story is quite clearly ripped from the Friday the 13th franchise. Plenty of tits and more than enough blood and gore with a tongue in cheek attitude is the recipe and it works quite well. All the horror geeks should go nuts about the casting as there's Kane Hodder, Tony Todd and Robert Englund all in one movie. Though two of them in small cameo roles, but anyways lots of familiar names. Other than that the cast was nothing special, a mix of somewhat ok actors and people cast just because of their looks. In the end it's fun brain numbing entertainment, so it did what it supposed to do. Even though I was a bit disappointed that the sequel turned out to be so much more worse after seeing this or as I saw this later this turned out to be a let down, you know what I mean. Those who like this kind of stuff can safely watch them both and have a good time that's for sure.
