The Legend of Halloween Jack Movie Review
Alleged killer Jack Cain (William Wolfe Hogan) avoids prosecution due to a technicality. Now the families of the two children he is accused of killing seek out vigilante justice. A year after being killed by the group, Cain returns, looking like a wicked scarecrow meets the killer from Smiley, and he's out for revenge!
I really need to review Smiley some day
This 2018, which certainly found much inspiration from Dark Night of the Scarecrow, comes from Wales, UK--I may be off on this, but I have always pictured Wales being to the UK as, say, Arkansas or Kentucky is to the United States--I think this movie may back this theory, as the dialogue is as dreadful as listening to a conversation between a couple locals from either of those "fine" states. The movie starts off hot, with clips from legendary public domain films such as Nosferatu, White Zombie, The Cabinet of Caligari, Night of the Living Dead, and Carnival of Souls. Most unfortunately, seeing clips of other movies is the best thing about watching this one. The scares are none. The blood and gore are little, with most killings taking place off screen. If you catch this on Tubi, you will see the rating TV-14, but there's lots of profanity in this one, so parents beware--this would be a solid R rating in the United States. There's several attempts at humor throughout, but it all falls flat. Perhaps worst yet, this movie introduces the world to the worst Halloween party any movie has ever seen--it's about 6 dudes in the lamest Halloween costumes a couple quid could buy. There is a slight bit of a twist, and seeing the people who killed Jack try to cover their tracks was mildly interesting, but otherwise, there's nothing to see here.
On A Scale Of One To Ten: 3
