Review of Hatchet (2006) by Dominique C — 02 Sep 2008
Barely watchable yet gory "film" I caught on STARZ On Demand. A surprisingly decent cast given how otherwise poor and original the film was. It's essentially a Friday the 13th ripoff with a bunch of tourists stuck in a Louisiana swamp while stalked by a disfigured, subhuman a la Jason Voorhees.
And wouldn't you know that in the closing credits THAT character is played by none other than Kane Hodder?!? Unnecessarily bloody, and the killer moves in bizarre, mechanical and almost laughable ways.
A mildly clever bit in the final shot of the film but even THAT is derivative of F13. Not good.
