Urban Legends:Bloody Mary Movie Review






Urban Legends:Bloody Mary is a 2005 sequel and the third film in the Urban Legend series and is directed by Mary Lambert. It stars Kate Mara and Tina Lifford.

The film begins in 1969 when three girls are drugged by three guys from the football team. They are kidnapped but one of them escapes. Her name is Mary Banner and the captain of the football team chases her before she can tell anyone. He hits her and he knocks her out. He thinks that she is dead, so he locks her in a trunk, not knowing that she was still alive. Years later, a girl called Sam(Mara) and her friends are talking about the same thing. They talk about the legend of Bloody Mary. For some reason, they decide to call up Bloody Mary herself. The next day, the three girls are missing.
The football guys in school seem to know something about it. Sam returns and it turns out that she and her friends were drugged. It was the football guys who did it as a prank because Sam had written an article criticising them.


After this happens, Sam starts to see a bloody woman. Is it Bloody Mary? The members of the football team begin to disappear and turn up dead. Sam realises that there is someone with a vendetta against the football team. The captain of the team. Buck, thinks that Sam and her friends are to blame. Sam and her friends find out about Mary Banner and what happened to her all of those years ago. Sam and her brother, David, investigate the case and they look up the other two girls from that night in 1969. There is only one survivor. A woman called Grace(Lifford) is the only one left.
At first, she doesn't want to talk to them about it. She changes her mind when she finds out what is happening and she tells them that it is Mary who is killing people. She has come back from the grave to exact her revenge. Mary is taking the children of the guys who drugged her and her friends. Buck tells them that his dad was one of the guys who drugged the girls back then. Buck gets killed when Mary appears.


Sam has a vision and she sees that Mary wasn't dead. She was locked in the box and she suffocated.
Grace tells Sam to find Mary's body and lay her to rest. David gets attacked. Sam and Grace go to the school to look for Mary. Sam finds her in the box and she takes her to the graveyard with Grace. Sam's stepfather shows up. Sam had called him to help. It turns out that he was the one who locked Mary in the box and now he has to kill Sam so that she won't tell anyone his secret. He has already killed David. Mary shows up to save Sam from him and she takes him with her to the grave. Sam and Grace survive and the truth about Mary's killer is revealed.


This was an okay film. There wasn't anything special about it. It was more of a supernatural film, unlike the previous two movies. This is the weakest of the three films also. It was middle of the road but I wanted to watch it as I had seen the other two. The story is pretty simple. The cast were okay.
It's not really scary at all and there isn't anything new here. It is worth a look but don't expect too much. I will give it a 4/10.
