im watching and thinking the scarecrow vfx are pretty damn good for a syfy movie
share*beep* you this is the greatest movie of all time.
shareReally? While generic, I think it's better (quality wise, not a "so bad it's good" manner) than all those terrible versus monsters/shark movies Syfy's been releasing. I will say the scarecrow isn't scarecrow-looking enough for my taste - it looks more like the beast in Mothman (which is coincidentally airing right after Scarecrow).
The scene where Robin's character gets stabbed in the back was cool.
The last Syfy movie I enjoyed was Tasmanian Devils. Questionable SPFX and location (c'mon now, that was not Australia or anywhere near it) aside, it was entertaining and suspenseful.
this is one freakin crazy looking scarecrow.
shareYes, but you just know that Scarecrow vs. Megashark is in the works.

With all the atheist scientists in hell it's probably air conditioned by now.
Haha speak of the (Tasmanian) devil. This lake/river area looks kind of like the one from Tasmanian Devils.
shareSyFy showed Carny this afternoon which was about the Jersey Devil. Still, I would have rather seen the 1980 movie named Carny which starred Jodie Foster, Gary Busey and Robbie Robertson. Can you imagine if Gary Busey has played the Jersey Devil in the SyFy movie? That would have been epic.
shareWhoa, some of you think on the same page I do! Tasmanian Devils was a very good movie on a Syfy aspect for me, but some scenes did look familiar with other movies. Like I think there was one movie, Ghost Town(/) where a bunch of teens/college students got stuck in the town and for a moment, I thought they used the same barn.
Girl#1: We're dead if we don't do something.
Girl#2: Something's already dead. Your ends.
It does suck:
--CGI monsters do not scare me.
--Tired of the constant "Boom!" soundbite that predominates today's horror flicks.
--Too many off-screen deaths.
--When the teacher was putting the cell phones in the box, I thought, "That's a convenient way to get rid of the cell phone plot hole."
--Of course the fornicating couples are the first to die.
--Tired of the cliched horror movie crash, where the group is escaping but the driver doesn't keep his eyes on the road and there is an eventual crash.
--Small town hillbillies/rednecks who know about the demonic being that haunts their town but never explains why he continues to live in a town plagued with a demonic being. By the way, why did the redneck waste time telling them the story instead of calling the police or trying to escape?
