Wiki Article

Hatchet 3 was the horror film of the Hatchet trilogy. It is a story about Victor Crowley, his murderous rampage through Louisiana's Honey Island Swamp. Kane Hodder plays Victor Crowley, Brian Quinn portrays Deputy Winslow, Rileah vanderbilt portrays Misty.



The film's main strength lies in its use of practical special effects. Hatchet 3 is a modern horror film that heavily relies on CG effects. Hatchet 3 focuses mainly on practical makeup effects and sets. This results in some truly horrifying scenes.

The cast is solid, with Kane Hodder proving to be an intimidating villain. The dialogue feels like a 1980s slasher movie. It is witty and funny enough. There are instances of humor in the film which add humour to bloody action.

However because of the small budget (reportedly only $1 million) most of the locations are repeats from previous films in the series--the same boat house was used two (blog post) times within the movie and much of it feels like it's been recycled from other films in this franchise. This can make it feel almost too familiar at times especially for people who've watched Hatchet or Hatchet 2

Overall, Hatchet 3 was enjoyable, even though it felt very similar in tone to previous entries within the series. It was filled with thrilling thrills and some entertaining performances from its actors.
