Product Description
Slasher horror flick from director Brett Simmons. A group of teenage friends are taking a drive when they are hit by a murder of crows causing their truck to spin off the road and into a cornfield. After stumbling into an eerie scarecrow watching over the rows they soon begin to realise they are stuck in the middle of nowhere.... and an evil force seems to be picking them off one by one.

It's not a bad film. The scripting, acting and all the rest are pretty darn good, as this is a film with some jumpy moments. It's tense all the way through, with some good ideas (someone vanishing from the off, a seemingly never-ending corn field and the bated breath moment when someone gets too close to the Scarecrow for comfort). Unfortunately it does contain two HUGE gaping plot holes. One is that a way to destroy the monster (or at least slow it down) is found fairly early on, except the person concerned seems to neglect to tell anyone about it and two, the ending....well, the ending is pretty bad all round. I have an issue with the fact that some people are given an escape route, but waste lots of time doing something which (because of the ending) seems to be pointless.
Why is one of the characters blessed with 'visions' except to let the audience know why this is happening? Why do two of the characters argue with a third who is quite clearly going off his head (however understandable)? The rest of us are shouting at the screen at this point, "Don't listen to him". The others should have taken control.
Personally, I'd say don't buy this film. Rent it, when it gets cheaper, or with any luck it'll get shown on the telly soon. One to be enjoyed late at night with some beers and popcorn.

Set mostly among a field of corn and a house within it, this horror film is IMHO pretty derivative, relying on animated scarecrows of other movies and the familiar cornfields of Children Of the Corn. The plot involves the scarecrow taking out each of the characters one by one, who then become a scarecrow looking for the next victim and so on. Punctuated by flashbacks of the events leading up to the original murder which set the whole scarecrow-thing off in the first place, the film is a very average-to-mediocre supernatural slasher.
A few of the ideas and images are quite nicely done (the otherwise deserted house with its one light on where the victims sit with their archaic sewing machine making their scarecrow costume, for example), but the film is as disjointed as some of its scarecrow killers and didn't really grip me like I hoped it would.

This is the perfect night in horror flick with all the right levels of scares, blood and badass scarecrows!! It has a semi original story which plays out pretty well over the course of the film, the cast is ok, its a good popcorn lots of jumps and scares film thats worth checking out if you love horror!! Theres nothing in the way of extras though but trailers for some other great films in the same series like prowl and Re-kill.

THIS IS A PRETY GOOD MOVIE, IT'S NOT TO SCARY, PRETTY LOCATION GOOD ACTORS. THE SCARECROW IS SPOOKY, AND THE GUY WHO PLAYED HIM WAS GOOD. I WOULD RATE THIS MOVIE A 6 OUT OF TEN.

Some good ideas, but could have been better!
