Breakdown: Hatchet 3 (2013)

Wiki Article

"Hatchet III" (2013) is the horror film which continues to tell the tale of Victor Crowley, the evil ghost. BJ MacDonnell is the director. It is the final installment of the Hatchet Film Series. Kane Hodder stars alongside Zach Galligan in the film.

The plot of the movie follows the survivors of the earlier films who are hunted by Crowley and local hunters. The backstory of Crowley is revealed and how he became the vengeful ghost he is today.

Cast and crew did an excellent job in making the characters come alive. Kane Hodder brought a strong performance in Crowley's character. The practical effects employed by Crowley in bringing the ghost's spectre to life were very impressive and enhanced the film's horror aspect.

One of the strengths of the film was the use of practical special effects. They were done well and enhanced the terror element. The pacing of the film was excellent, keeping the viewers in their seats.

The downside of the film is the fact that it uses a familiar formula from the earlier movies in the series, making it seem like a re-telling of the same plot. The plot was also a bit convoluted, making it hard to follow at times.

Overall, I enjoyed "Hatchet III" even although it was essentially identical to the previous two entries within the Hatchet film (blog) series. The practical special effects and pacing were strong points of the film, but the plot and familiarity of the story hindered the film. If you are a fan of the series and enjoy slasher films, this movie is worth watching.
