Rise of the Scarecrows (2009 Video)
1/10
somehow (against all odds) even worse than his first film
19 May 2009
Officer Tony Brown chooses to relocate to the small town of Adams in Massachusetts after he gets fed up with all the crime of big city life. But he soon comes to realize that both the local sheriff as well as the townspeople are part of a plan to lead unsuspecting out-of-towners, such as hitchhikers and people with car troubles, into the woods to get slaughtered by scarecrows.

This movie has a lot going against it, atrocious acting, slow pacing,characters that are extremely unlikable (for no good reason whatsoever), it's relatively bloodless, and the parts that try (too hard) to add humor are just cringe-worthy. I usually support independent cinema so I gave Geno McGahee a second chance to impress me after the cinematic sludge that was "Evil Awakening", but as mind-numbingly awful as that film was, this second attempt is actually somehow worse.

Eye Candy: Amanda Negro gets fully nude in a gratuitous shower scene, it's not nearly enough to make the film watchable though

My Grade: D-
