My Husband and I spent the day getting our home ready for the arrival of a new kitten! As we're sitting here twiddling our thumbs until her arrival on this cold, rainy, Saturday night, I suggested watching: Hatchet.
I'm intrigued by the "Old School American Horror" tag line, so see you after the show (and after our kitten arrives)!!!
Update:
Well. Um. So, after the film I turned to my Husband and said, "I did not care for this film". And that pretty much sums up my overall thoughts. Just that. A slasher film in every classical sense - and I still don't understand what the tag lines means.
Perhaps my mind was so preoccupied with the kitten arrival - perhaps I just thought this film was, well, not great. Either way, I found it boring, ridiculous (not in a fun way), and unoriginal. I'm being a bit harsh - but I woke up this morning disliking it more than after I watched it last night. Overall I was not amused or entertained, but there were a small handful of moments where I chuckled and the kill scenes are impressively over-the-top.
I think this film would be best appreciated in a large, boisterous, drunk group. Not on a couple's movie night - waiting for a kitten.
I watched this film on Hulu or use the Find It! Watch It! links on Horror Habit's side bar to locate where else you can see this bloody, cheesy, film.
