You Should Have Left Movie Review

You Should Have Left is a 2020 horror/thriller movie directed by David Koepp and starring Kevin Bacon and Amanda Seyfried.

The movie begins with a man called Theo(Bacon). He is married to a younger woman called Susie(Seyfried). She is an actress and he was a banker. They have a daughter called Ella. Theo wants them to go for a holiday so they book a house in rural Wales. When they reach the house, it is huge.
It is also out in the middle on nowhere. Lights go on an off by themselves. Ella sees a strange shadow on the wall. We learn that Theo was married before. His wife drowned in the bath. He was accused of her murder and it has caused him a lot of anger issues. Theo goes to the local grocer and he asks him about the house. It is relatively new, but the grocer tells him that there was another house there previously. He seems to know something about it. He gives Theo a triangle to measure the angles inside the house. Theo is amused.

Theo writes all of his thoughts in a journal. When he goes to open it, he sees that someone has written 'you should leave' in it. He wanders around and finds loads of corridors in it. Someone is taking polaroids of him. It turns out to be a bad dream. He decides that they should leave the place. He finds out that Susie has been cheating on him. He tells her to leave for the night and they will talk in the morning. He looks in his journal and finds the words ' you should have left. Now it's too late'. Theo  loses Ella in the house. He runs around looking for her. He eventually discovers her and he tells her that they have to leave the house. They are going to walk. He calls the grocer and asks him for help, but he doesn't help.

Theo and Ella walk through the countryside looking for some help. They end up walking right back to the house again. It looks as if someone is in there. They have to go back into the house again.
Theo sees his dead wife and then he sees himself. Something is happening to time and he sees himself as he was when they first arrived. He talks to a version of himself and things get weird. The next day, Susie shows up and he tells her to take Ella with her and he tells her that he has to stay in the house. He admits that he knew that his wife was drowning and he did nothing to help her so he was responsible for her death. He has to stay in the house as punishment for what he did. They leave and he goes back inside. The movie ends with the house being advertised on the internet.

This film was not very good. It was supposed to be a horror movie, but there were very few scares in it. I thought that it was more like a thriller but even so, the film was light on suspense. I thought that the story could have been so much better and the ending just fell flat for me. I was expecting some big reveal, but nothing good happened. I like Kevin Bacon, but this film was not good and even he couldn't make it better. I usually enjoy haunted house movies, but this wasn't really one of those either. The house was some sort of purgatory or something and I thought that Theo was paying for his past sin by having to stay in the house. That's what I took from it.  Anyway, I felt that this was a poor offering so it is getting a 4/10.

The Invisible Man Movie Review

The Invisible Man is a 2020 horror movie directed by Leigh Whannell and starring Elisabeth Moss, Oliver Jackson-Cohen and Aldis Hodge.

Cecilia Kass(Moss) is a woman who lives with a very wealthy man called Adrian Griffin(Jackson-Cohen). He is a controlling and abusive man and she wants to leave. One night, she executes her plan and she leaves. Adrian tries to catch her as she leaves, but he fails. She finds out later that he has committed suicide. She is going to get five million dollars from him. She is living with a friend of hers called James Lanier(Hodge) and his daughter, Sydney. She has to go and meet Adrian's brother, Tom(Michael Dorman) to arrange the money. He says that he didn't like his brother either. She feels that she can move on with her life when strange things start to happen. Things move around and she gets drugged. There is something weird happening.

Cecilia begins to think that Adrian has something to do with it. She says that he was a genius in optics and that he was working on something that could make him invisible. She thinks that he is the one who is tormenting her, but they think that she is crazy. Someone writes a nasty email to her sister and this makes her turn her back on Cecilia. Someone hits Sydney also and this prompts James to take Sydney away. Cecilia looks around the house and she finds Adrian's phone in the attic. She senses that he is in the house and he really is there. He attacks her but she throws paint on him so she can see him. She goes back to the house that they shared and she finds his invisiblity suit. Now, she is sure that it is him. She goes to meet her sister, but someone slits her throat and drops the knife into Cecilia's hand so she is charged with the murder.

Cecilia ends up in a mental institution. She is also pregnant. She gets a visit from Tom who tells her that she can get out if she agrees to go back to Adrian. She realises that he helped his brother to frame her. She lures him out by pretending to kill herself. She runs off when he grabs her. He kills the staff at the hospital and chases her. The invisible man goes to get James and Sydney. Cecilia intervenes and she uses a fire extinguisher on him. It turns out that the figure was Tom. She knows that he conspired with the brother. Adrian is found at his house, tied up. He claims that Tom was the one who was responsible. Cecilia knows that this isn't true. Adrian claims that he was kidnapped and held by his demented brother. Cecilia decides that she has to catch him out so she agrees to meet him to talk. She realises that he hasn't changed and she goes to the bathroom. The camera catches her leaving and then it shows Adrian killing himself. Then she reappears and she is horrifed. She calls the cops. James wonders what happened and he spots an invisibility suit in her bag as she is leaving. He decides to let it go. It turns out that she took Adrian's spare suit and made herself invisible and killed him but the camera shows that he killed himself. She leaves happy that he is finally out of her life.

I liked this film. I think it is probably more of a thriller than a horror,but it had some creepy moments so I will let that go. I liked the story. It was interesting and I enjoyed this one. It is creepy that someone could be watching you and you can't see them. I liked the idea of that. All in all, this is a decent film with some good eerie scenes and tense moments. I recommend it and I will give it a 7/10.

Charlie's Farm Movie Review

Charlie's Farm is a 2014 Australian horror movie directed by Chris Sun, who also directed Boar. It stars Kane Hodder, Tara Reid and Bill Moseley.

The film begins with people who are hiding on a farm. They are getting picked off by someone. They all get killed. Cut to a group of friends who want to go on a roadtrip. They are Natasha(Reid), Melanie, Jason and Mick. Jason and Mick want to go to a haunted farm called Charlie's Farm. A family died in there. Natasha and Melanie don't know about their destination. They set off and the stop at a local pub to ask directions to the farm. A man called Blue lives in the area. Mick asks him about the farm. He tells them not to go there. He was there when the family was killed. The locals don't want people bringing it up. One of them tells them where to go and they leave. When the girls find out about where they are going, they are not happy. Natasha doesn't like it at all.

Mick tells the story of the family who lived on the farm. They were called John Wilson(Moseley) and his wife, Meredith. They were killers and cannibals. They had a son called Charlie and he watched as they murdered and ate people. The locals showed up at the farm. They were tired of what was going on. Blue was amongst them. They want the Wilson's to stop the killing. They shoot John dead. Meredith takes Charlie and that's all Mick knows about it. They call a friend of theirs called Tony(Hodder). He knows the area. He tells them that it is a bad place and that backpackers disappeared around there. He gives them directions. They reach it. They look around. It is a creepy place. Melanie finds a teddy bear. There is a flashback to Meredith and Charlie. She hides him while the locals catch her. They kill her as Charlie watches.

The group camps inside the house. Melanie wakes up at night and she sees a man. The next morning, two backpackers arrives. They are called Alyssa and Gordon. They talk to the group. Melanie realises that the teddy bear she found has gone. She tells them that there was a figure in the doorway last night. They think she was dreaming. Everyone sets off exploring.. Mick and Melanie finds a mineshaft. There is a terrible smell coming out of it. Gordon and Alyssa get killed. Tony is worried about the group. Mick and Melanie see Charlie(Nathan Jones) which is bad news for them. They end up dead. Natasha and Jason talk about Charlie and they hide. Tony shows up and he just happens to run into big bad Charlie. They have a fight. Jason sees and he tries to help but he gets killed. Tony gets killed by Charlie. Natasha is left and she has to run.

He catches her and she gets knocked out. She wakes up in a box in some sort of tunnel. She wanders around. There are loads of bodies in it. Charlie arrives and she hides from him. She manages to get out of the tunnel and the local guy Blue shows up. He has a gun with him. Of course, this isn't enough to stop the monstrous Charlie and Blue ends up joining the dead. Natasha grabs the gun and she shoots Charlie. She runs off and gets to Blue's truck. She isn't safe for long though. Charlie rises yet again and he impales her on the shotgun. She is taken to add to his collection of bodies in the tunnel.

This was a fun film. I liked the story of the farm and the cast weren't bad. The addition of Kane Hodder was welcome. Charlie himself is played by Australian former wrestler Nathan Jones who also showed up in Chris Sun's other movie, Boar. I liked that movie too. This is a decent movie with some gore. I enjoyed it overall and I certainly recommend it. I will give this a 6/10.

Houseboat Horror Movie Review

Houseboat Horror is a 1989 Australian horror movie directed by Kendal Flanagan and starring Alan Dale and Louise Siversen.

The film starts with a group of people who are going to shoot a video in a place called Lake Infinity. They pick up a hitchhiker who is going to meet up with her boyfriend. They drop her off and she meets a killer and is murdered. The group heads up to the lake. There are more people coming also. The killer is watching. They are renting houseboats. There is a local forest ranger guy who isn't happy about them wrecking the area. People have gone missing in the area before. The group consists of a rock band and their entourage. The forest ranger meets a sticky end at the hands of the killer. The killer had newspaper cuttings about a child who was burned on set by a film crew in an accident. He is very angry about it.

The band make their video and party. The killer is following them. He starts to get rid of members of the crew one by one. They meet a weird woman called Zelia(Siversen). She says that she heard them. She tells them that she was an actress and there was a fire on the set and people were burned. They think that she is crazy. The killer gets onto their boat and disconnects the radio so they can't call for help. They still have a two way phone and they call the person who rented them the boats. They tell him that some people are missing from their group. The killer doesn't stop and more die, one is killed with a horseshoe! It turns out that Zelia is working with the killer. Someone loses their phone, so the group are helpless. The killer starts his final assault. Bodies are piling up. He fails to kill two of the group and they escape as he falls into the water. The movie ends with the killers hand coming up from the water, so we know that he isn't dead.

Now, this film is very cheaply made, but it is actually not bad at all. I like Australian horror movies and this one was pretty decent. It is cheap, yes. The acting might not be up to much but the kills are actually good for such a low budget affair. I enjoyed this one. It isn't the best slasher film ever but it is certainly worth a watch if you enjoy Aussie horror, as I do. I recommend it and I will give it a 5/10.

Cutting Class Movie Review

Cutting Class is a 1989 horror movie directed by Rospo Pallenberg and starring Brad Pitt,Donovan Leitch and Jill Schoelen.

Paula Carson(Schoelen) is a high school student. She is home alone when her dad, Bill(Martin Mull) goes off for a fishing trip. He gets attacked. He just happens to be the district attorney. A local youth called Brian Woods(Leitch) has returned to school. He was in a mental institution after his father died in a suspicious accident. The brakes on his car were cut. Brian is supposed to be okay now. He talks to Paula. He likes her. Dwight(Pitt) is Paula's boyfriend and he isn't too keen on Brian hanging around his girlfriend. He and his pals find out that Brian had electro shock treatment. Cut to Paula's dad, who is still alive and trying to make his way out of the wilderness.

People start to die and Dwight starts to think that it might be Brian. He and Brian used to be close friends before he was sent away. Brian tries to convince Paula that he is not the killer. They all end up at the school where the coach is killed. Paula, Dwight, Brian and a teacher are there. There is a problem written on the black board and they have to choose a door to go through. One of them will be an escape. The teacher opens a door and he is killed by Brian. He IS the killer. Groan. He tries to kill Paula. Dwight is there to stop him. He chases both of them with an axe. They end up in a face off. Dwight fights him off and Paula hits him with a hammer and pushes him into a circular saw which finishes him off. The movie ends with Paula and Dwight leaving the school and meeting her dad, who somehow made it back from his trip alive. He tells them that he hopes that they weren't cutting class.

This film wasn't very good. I enjoyed bits of it, but I thought that the killer was so obvious from the start. It annoyed me. It was fun seeing a young Brad Pitt. I found it silly in parts and I just didn't like that the killer was Brian. They could have come up with something better. I didn't care for this much so I will give it a 4/10.

Just Before Dawn Movie Review

He squashes her but then she puts her fist into his mouth and suffocates him!!! Very unusual death. Merry Cat finds them and sees her brother's death. Warren and Connie are upset as they come to terms with what happened.

This was a fun film. I liked the woods setting and there were some decent scenes. I had heard of it before, but I only watched it recently. It is a low budget film, but that doesn't take away from it.
Overall, I enjoyed it and the end scene with the fist in the mouth death was really unusual. I had to laugh at that! There was some nice scenery on show also. The acting wasn't great but I can let that go I recommend this one. I will give it 5/10.

Beyond the Gates Movie Review

They are going to sell his stuff. Gordon goes to their dad's house to stay and his girlfriend, Margot(Brea Grant) arrives. They go to meet John and his loser pal, Hank(Justin Welborn). That night, Gordon thinks that he hears something in the house. There is nothing there. The next day, Gordon finds a key to his dad's office. He and John discover a VCR game called Beyond the Gates. They decide to see what it is all about. A woman, Evelyn(Crampton) comes on the TV. She seems to come alive. Gordon invites John to dinner and they show Margot the game. She wants to play. They load it up. Evelyn appears and she knows about their dad. It unsettles them and they turn it off.

Gordon lets John stay in his house as he is having financial difficulties. Gordon wakes up in the night. He sees his dad who asks him to help him. The game has turned itself on. The brothers are spooked and they call their police officer pal, Derek. They show him the game. He thinks that it is just their imagination. They discover a receipt for the game and they go to the shop where it was bought. It is a strange place. They meet the owner and they ask him about the game. He tells them that they should play it to the end. John steals a dagger from the shop. Evelyn tells them to read the instructions. They need to dig up a spot in the back yard.

Evelyn comes on and she tells them that their father is free and that they finished the game successfully. The movie ends with the brothers selling the house. Gordon and Margot leave. Another person buys the game and it all starts again....

This was a fun film overall. It has a definite 80's feel to it which I liked. The acting isn't the best, to be honest, but I liked the premise. I liked the idea of the game and the addition of Barbara Crampton was welcome. I think that this could have been better but I found that the 1980's nostalgia made it a lot more enjoyable. It is low budget, so I don't want to be too harsh. I would say that it is a fun watch and it is certainly worth looking at!! I will give it a 5/10.

The Final Girls Movie Review

The Final Girls is a 2015 horror comedy directed by Todd Strauss-Schulson and starring Taissa Farmiga and Malin Akerman.

The movie begins with a woman called Amanda(Akerman) who was an 80's actress. She is in a really famous slasher movie. Her daughter, Max(Farmiga) is with her and they are driving along when they are  involved in a car crash. Max survives but her mother doesn't. Three years later, Max lives with her Aunt Pearl. Max's friend Duncan(Thomas Middleditch) wants her to attend a special screening of her mother's film,Camp Bloodbath and it's sequel, Camp Bloodbath 2: Cruel Summer. Max doesn't want to go but she is persuaded by her other friends,Gertie(Alia Shawkat) and Chris(Alexander Ludwig). Vicki(Nina Dobrev), Chris' ex girlfriend shows up to meet them. They go into the theatre and watch the film. The killer is called Billy Murphy. Suddenly, there is a fire in the theatre and they try to escape. They have to cut a hole in the screen in a bid to get out.

They wake up in a strange place. They have entered the film, somehow. They see characters from the film. They wander around and they meet a van. They decide to get a lift. Max's mother is in it.Her name is Nancy in the film. They are at Camp Blue Finch from the movie. They have no idea how they ended up in the film. Max tries to talk to her mother about sleeping with one of the guys in it. She knows that if she does, it will mean her certain death. The film rolls on with Billy showing up and killing someone. Duncan gets killed also. They can't escape the film. They have to play their part. A girl called Paula shows up. She is the final girl. They want to stay with her as they know that she survives at the end. Billy's back story is discussed. It's the usual bullied kid story.

When Paula is killed, the realise that events from the film are not running smoothly. They need a new virginal final girl. Max is the one. They come up with a plan to get Billy before he can get them. They have to lure him to the camp. He arrives. They use a trap to get him. Unfortunately, he comes back.
He kills Gerdie. Max wants Nancy to survive the film and she thinks that he will be able to go back to the real world with her. Max and Billy face off when he kidnaps Nancy. He stabs her but they escape. They have a heart to heart and Max tells Nancy that she is her daughter. Nancy decides that she has to sacrifice herself so that Max can live. She goes out to Billy and gets his attention. He kills her. Max grabs his machete and she goes after him. There is a really lame fight and then she kills him. Chris and Max see the credits roll. They wake up in hospital. The whole gang are there. They think that they are home, but it turns out that they are in the sequel and Billy is back..

This was entertaining. I am not a big fan of horror and comedy together, but I have to say that it was fun. I liked the idea and it was done pretty well. I did not like the final fight between Max and Billy. I thought that it was ridiculous, but apart from that, this was decent. The cast were not bad and there were some obvious nods to Friday the 13th and all of those great 1980's slashers. So, if you like a bit of comedy mixed in with your horror, then give it a try. I recommend it and I will give it a 6/10.

The Haunted Palace Movie Review

The Haunted Palace is a 1963 horror film directed by Roger Corman and starring Vincent Price, Debra Paget, Lon Chaney Jr. and Frank Maxwell.

The movie begins with a girl walking at night in the village of Arkham. Two locals follow her to an old house. They think that the house is evil. She is brought inside by a man and a woman. The man is called Joseph Curwen(Price) and the woman is Hester. Curwen performs a rite on the girl and he is going to sacrifice her to a creature he has in a pit. The locals turn up looking for her. They question the girl but she is in a trance. The locals take matters into their own hands. They burn Curwen alive as they think that he is the Devil. They leave Hester alone. Before he dies, Curwen curses the people in the town and he swears revenge on them and their descendants.

110 years later, a great-great grandson of Joseph Curwen shows up. His name is Charles Dexter Ward(Price) and he is with his wife Anne(Paget). They go to the local tavern and the locals look at them. They are looking for a house that has been left to Charles. The locals tell them to stay away from the house but Dr. Willet(Maxwell) tells them the way. They look around the house. There is a large portrait of Curwen hanging in there. He looks the same as Charles. The caretaker of the house is called Simon(Chaney Jr.). Anne is spooked by the house and Simon. There is a creature in the village
who is fed by a local man. Charles is drawn to the portrait and it speaks to him. He decides that he wants to remodel the house and sell it. Anne isn't happy.

The couple walk around town and they see disfigured people. They surround them then walk away. Dr.Willet tells them that the people have been mutated. He tells Charles about Joseph Curwen. He took local girls from the village. He had a book called the Necronomicon. He was able to summon dark gods. The locals believed that Curwen wanted to create a new race with gods and humans and this is why he wanted girls and why some of the people became mutated.Charles hears voices at night and he goes to look at the portrait. He is possessed by the spirit of Curwen. He is using Charles to come back to life. Simon welcomes him back. A friend of Curwen's called Jabez(Milton Parsons) is there to help too. Curwen has the Necronomicon and he plans to bring Hester back to life. Anne becomes worried about Charles as he seems different. Charles tries to fight Curwen and stop him from taking over his body.

Charles tells Anne that she has to leave. Curwen wants her out of the way. He is trying to get Hester back but it isn't working. Charles can't remember what happens when Curwen is in control. He wants to leave the house with his wife. Simon tries to stop him. Charles is leaving when the portrait possesses him again. He tells Anne that they are not leaving. Anne goes to the doctor and tells him about the change in Charles. Curwen decides that he wants revenge. He finally resurrects Hester and the gang are together again. The descendants of those who burned Curwen start to die. The locals are riled up and ready to get Charles. Anne and the doctor look for him to save him from the locals. They find Curwens lair and he catches them. He is going to feed Anne to the creature that he has. The locals are burning the palace. They burn the portrait. Charles comes back to himself and he tells the doctor to save his wife. He is left inside the burning palace by Simon, Jabez and Hester. The doctor helps him to escape and  Anne and Charles are reunited. The movie ends with us seeing that Charles has been replaced by Curwen. He has not been destroyed after all...

This is a decent film with Vincent Price stealing the show. I enjoyed the story and it was very entertaining throughout. I want to make my way through all of the Price/Corman movies. I have watched House of Usher, The Masque of the Red Death and now this one. I recommend this if you enjoy Vincent Price films or if you are a fan of Lovecraft and Poe. I will give this a 6/10.

Return of the Living Dead 3 Movie Review

Return of the Living Dead 3 is a 1993 horror movie sequel directed by Brian Yuzna and starring Melinda Clarke, J. Trevor Edmond and Kent McCord.

The movie begins with a guy called Curt Reynolds(Edmond) who steals a key card from his father, Col. John Reynolds(McCord) who works at a military base. He takes his girlfriend, Julie(Clarke) to see the place. They enter the facility and spy on his father who is working with others on dead bodies. they are using Trioxin gas which reanimates the corpses. They want to use them as soldiers. The problem is that they are not reliable. They want to eat brains and this keeps them from their function. Julie and Curt watch all of this. The zombie loses control and it goes wild. It bites one of the men and he turns into a zombie also. The experiment is a disaster as they shoot the reanimated corpses. Reynolds is reassigned after this. He tells Curt that they are going to leave. Curt isn't going anywhere and he and Julie ride off on his motorbike. She messes with him and he loses control of the bike and crashes. Julie is killed.

Curt brings her back to the military facility and he tries to bring her back to life using Trioxin. It seems to work. Unfortunately, a zombie has escaped also. It attacks Curt and Julie. They escape from it. Curt knows that Julie is not the same. She bites a man during a robbery at a store. Curt's father discovers that his son is on the run from the police. Julie is getting hungry. She eats a man, causing him to come back and attack the cops. The army guys catch them and they kill the zombie man. Julie and Curt run off. They end up in the sewers. Julie runs off. She ends up in the water. A man is watching her. The robbers from the store are after Julie. They end up in the sewers also. The man from the sewer meets Julie and Curt and he takes them to safety.

John goes looking for his son as some other army guy takes control of the situation. The guy from the sewer is called Riverman. He shows them his home. The robbers are following them, as are the army guys. Julie is changing. She sticks all sorts of sharp objects into her skin. She realises that is she is in pain, her craving for human brains abates. The robbers find them. They are going to kill Curt and Julie. Julie appears in her new form and she kills them all. Curt tries to stop her. Riverman is horrified. The robbers start to change. She kills Riverman. The zombie robbers are trying to get at Curt. John finds them and he sees Julie. He shoots her and she is captured. Curt visits her at the base and he sees what they have been doing to bodies. He doesn't want that to happen to Julie. She is in a cage. He lets all of the zombies out and they attack the staff. He gets bitten himself. John wants Curt to come out but he won't leave Julie. He takes her and they go into the incinerator together.

This was a pretty decent film. Compared to the previous two, it is not as good, but it's a strange one.
It is a zombie love story, which is unusual. It has some good moments and it's got some fun scenes. If you are expecting something like the other two, then this will be a surprise. I think that it is worth a look though, as it is entertaining overall. I will give it a 5/10.

Urban Legends:Bloody Mary Movie Review

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.

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.

Urban Legend 2:The Final Cut

  
Urban Legend 2:The Final Cut is a 2000 horror movie directed by John Ottman and starring Jennifer Morrison, Matthew Davis, Eva Mendes, Loretta Devine, Hart Bochner, Anthony Anderson and Joseph Lawrence.

The movie begins with students at a film school. There is a film competition and a girl called Amy(Morrison) is going to make a film about an urban legends killer after talking to security guard, Reese(Devine). A girl called Lisa goes for a drink and it is spiked. She passes out and she wakes up in a bath full of ice. Her kidney has been removed. She calls the police and tries to escape, but she gets killed in the process. Amy's friend is also killed and her death is filmed by the killer. Somehow, the killer manages to put it on their camera and they all see it. They don't think that it is real. A student called Travis(Matthew Davis) kills himself over his bad grades. Amy meets his twin, Trevor.
He says that his brother did not kill himself. He thinks he was murdered. He asks her not to tell anyone.

Amy's cameraman, Simon is beaten to death. Amy hears someone being attacked. She is looking through her reels when the killer arrives and tries to attack her. She runs off and gets away. She talks to Trevor about what happened.Amy and her crew go to an old place to film some scenes. The killer just happens to be there. He kills a couple of students by electrocuting them. Amy returns to campus and notifies the police, who think it was an accident. Amy sees a light on in the bell tower and she wanders up there to find her friend, Vanessa(Mendes), waiting there for her. Vanessa had received a note from Amy saying that she had feelings for her. It is a forgery and it is a trap. The killer is there and Amy is pursued once again, while Vanessa is killed.Reese shows up and finds the body.

It turns out that Travis had made a film and that all of the people who worked on it are dead except for one- a guy called Toby. They hold him and they call Professor Solomon(Bochner) to tell him what happened. He comes to meet them and there is a confrontation. Toby is innocent. The Professor is the killer. He shoots Toby. He wants to frame Amy for it. Her father was a filmmaker and he didn't vote for Solomon's film in an awards ceremony so his career never took off. He wanted to take Travis' film and pass it off as his own. Reese shows up. She is unaware of who the killer is. They end up holding guns on each other. The Professor gets shot when he tries to kill Amy. The movie ends with Solomon watching Amy's film. He is wheeled back to his room by a nurse, who just happens to be Brenda from the first movie. She tells him that they have a lot in common!!

This was a fun film. It isn't as good as the first one, but there is enough to keep you entertained. It was pretty easy to figure out who the killer was early on. The cast were not bad on the whole. It was a bit silly at the end, but all in all, this was decent enough. I recommend it. I will give it a 5/10.
