Hatchet 3 film analysis (by Decker Shado)

Wiki Article

Hatchet 3 is Hatchet's horror film from 2013. It chronicles Victor Crowley's continuing adventures and his rampage across Louisiana's Honey Island Swamp. Kane Hodder portrays Victor Crowley while Brian Quinn plays Deputy Winslow. Rileah Vanbilt plays Misty.



The strengths of the film lie in the practical effects. Hatchet 3 is a modern horror film that relies heavily on CG effects. Hatchet 3 focuses mainly on realistic makeup effects as well as sets. This results in terrifying scenes.

The cast gives a strong performance, with Kane Hodder standing out as an incredibly terrifying villain. It's like a slasher film from the 1980s, with the dialogue being somewhat funny and snarky. There are also some truly humorous moments that provide a comic contrast to the heartbreaking action.

Unfortunately, because the budget is extremely limited (reportedly $1 million) the majority of locations used in the film are reused locations from earlier films in the series. For instance, the same boathouse was featured twice within the movie. Many of these locations feel like they were reused from previous films from this series. Hatchet or Hatchet II may be able to recognize it as (click now to see video) familiar, and this can lead to the film feeling almost too familiar.

Overall, Hatchet 3 was an enjoyable show. I enjoyed the violent thrills it offered and the entertaining performances of the actors.
