Night of the Scarecrow

Maybe it's beacuse I wasn't expecting much, but this movie was all right. It was much better than any other competition like Scarecrows. I thought the deaths were rather creative andit had some pretty decent camera angles too. The acting wasn't great, but a few of the character's had some depth. I liked how the Scarecrow acted scared of the cross and then laughed at it. I recommend this one. 4 out of 5.

Characters:

• Claire: Rebelious young woman who likes to mess with people's minds.
• Dillon: Construction foreman who falls for Claire.
• Uncle Frank: The sheriff of the town. Stabbed with straw. Seriously!
• Uncle Thaddeus: Town priest who likes to 'read' Victoria's Secret. Mouth sewn shut and sliced later on.
• Uncle George: Local farmer who owns the Scarecrow's feild. Pinned against a wall with a pitchfork and shredded with farm equipment.
• The Mayor: Stubborn father of Claire. he seems pretty bitter about something. Pinned to a wall and turned into a big ball of straw.
• Danny: Local idiot/drunk. Gets torn apart off screen.
• Barbara: Wife of Thaddeus. Likes to crochet. Too bad The Scarecrow does too...
• Stephanie: The preacher's daughter, and you know what that means! Oh yeah. Impregnated by the Scarecrows fingure and turned into a... plant thing that gets pulled into the ground.
• The Scarecrow: Warlock who is set free by drunken idiots on a tractor.

The Totals:

• Body Count: 10
• Weapons Used: A pitchfork, farm equipment, a needle, fire pokers, a cross, a gun, a night stick, a reaper, a blow tourch, a hatchet, chemicals, straw, gas, and barb wire.

Random Thought and Things Learned

• Old tractors have radios.
• It's dangerous to drink beer near a window.
• Being pinned to a wall with a pitchfork and then ran over with farm equipment can be considered 'an accident.'
• Pigs are allowed to roam free in some churches.
• She's being chased by a homicidal scarecrow. I doubt you have to tell her to run.
