A word of warning here: Scarecrow is flat-out terrible. One of the very few horror films I've been totally unable to find anything to like about. Bloody Moon I haven't seen, but it's directed by Jess Franco, so it could be promising.

I dont think I'd get either one of them, Scarecrow sucks. And I havnt heard enough about Bloody Moon to buy it. But its up to you.

I'm one of the few people who liked Scarecrow. I say, if it's for a reasonable price, buy it. If not, screw it! It's not great, just a way to pass some time. Haven't seen Bloody Moon yet.

Stay away from Scarecrow...PU! What a smelly turd that movie is (however, it's better than Scarecrow Gone Wild). If you like Franco, Bloodt Moon is one of his best (that's not really saying much though.

As a lover of bad movies, I sort of enjoyed "Scarecrow." I would never tell you it's a good movie--but, if you like cheesily-executed monster revenge fantasies with fake cartoonlike characters, you might have fun with it.

That's exactly how I felt when I watched Scarecrow. Cheesy, mindless fun! :D

Scarecrow is a terrible movie, but I own it because its a fun watch. If its cheap, pick it up.

Bloody Moon is one of Franco's more accessible efforts, including a protracted band-saw head-slicing bit which is quite nice.

Well, how much is Scarecrow? If it's five dollars, I say buy. If more than 5, I say hide. Oh, and if you do buy Scarecrow and you didn't like it, return it and say it was broken. :p :D

I havent seen scarecrow, but ive been told its campy and low budget. BUTTTT..i did buy scarecrow slayer.....(not knowing scarecrow was the original and this is a HORRIBLE sequel with the guy from candyman).

WTF..scarescrow slayer makes me want to vomit..
....i LOV low budget horror..jack frost...terror toons...dead and rotting etc etc...its fun..BUTTT scarecrow slayer blew my mind away.......HOW DID SUCH A HORRIBLE MOVIE GET RELEASED??? Its bad an every level..the effecst they attempted to use were photoshoped...im convinced..i cant even speak o fthis film..just please rent it...(which is equivalent to wiping your ass with the money and flushing it)...and get the best example on the market of BAD CINEMA....

like i said..ive seen the lowest of the low..with low budget films..and this one..takes the cake....

(a camcorder with no video editing equipment is better)

watch it stoned..

anybody seen "The Final Cut"...?
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0364343/

I like some of R. Williams acting ...did decent roles in "Insomnia" (2002) and "One Hour Photo" (2002)....

"The Final Cut" worth buying..or at least renting ?

Avoid the first movie and check out the second one. It's worth at least a rent.

I found the Norwegian version to be a little better than the American remake. For what it's worth though, I still think the remake is a pretty good flick. Robin Williams actually did a pretty good job, as he has in his dramatic roles since, which was a pleasant surprise for me.

..me too...but I dont like his funny roles....actually I hated his funny parts...but as you say a pleasant suprise..hope he does only serious roles in the future...a worst senario is is he teams up with Spielberg again..and they do a comedy..or dumb childish adventure movie like "Hook" (1991) .....
