Hatchet II Scream queen Danielle Harris takes over the role originated by Tamara Feldman in writer/director Adam Green's eagerly anticipated sequel to the retro horror hit that introduced audiences to Victor Crowley (Kane Hodder), a psychotic, hideously deformed swamp-dweller who doesn't take kindly to uninvited guests. Picking up precisely where its bloody precursor left off, Hatchet II finds Marybeth (Harris) in a boat, struggling to escape from Crowley's crushing grip after seeing all of her friends get brutally slaughtered in a Louisiana swamp. Miraculously, she manages to fight her way free and find her way back to New Orleans, where she seeks out the ominous Reverend Zombie (Tony Todd), the voodoo-shop proprietor who organized her doomed tour of the marshland. Later, after assembling a small squad of rugged hunters, Reverend Zombie accompanies Marybeth back into the bog on a mission to track down Crowley, and finally close the book on his brutal legend. But the further the group ventures into the slough, the more apparent it becomes that Reverend Zombie may have a hidden agenda. Hatchet III Traumatized Marybeth (Danielle Harris) faces off against deformed psychopath Victor Crowley (Kane Hodder) once again in this gory sequel that finds director B.J. McDonnell taking over the reins from series originator Adam Green, who penned the screenplay. Having just turned Victor Crowley's head into raw hamburger with a point-blank shotgun blast, tormented heroine Marybeth must once more fight for her life when the deformed maniac resurrects yet again. Fortunately for Marybeth, a well-placed chainsaw rips Crowley clean in two, allowing her the opportunity to make her way to the closest police station, where Sheriff Fowler (Zach Galligan) is contending with drunken Mardi Gras revelers. Drenched in blood and carrying Crowley's scalp, Marybeth is quickly hosed down and locked up in a cell. As Sheriff Fowler heads to Honey Island Swamp with his best men to investigate, his ex-wife, disgraced reporter Amanda (Caroline Williams) convinces Deputy Winslow (Robert Diago DoQui) to let her question Marybeth. Meanwhile in the swamp, Crowley descends upon the first responders tasked with cleaning up the shocking scene. With half the force heading in as back-up, Amanda realizes that they key to defeating Crowley may lie in his father's remains, and talks Deputy Winslow into bringing Marybeth along as they head to a nearby town to retrieve them. By the time Amanda, Deputy Winslow, and Marybeth arrive in the swamp to confront Crowley, the madman has already massacred most of the police as well as a heavily armed swat team led by the fearless Hawes (Derek Mears). Should their bold plan fail, the trio will certainly die horribly. With no options left, they venture into the darkness to confront the legend that never dies.

Part 2 oand 3 of the Hatchet trilogy do not disappoint fans of the late 70's and early 80's all out slasher horror films I fondly remember. Gruesome kills, buckets of blood, old school in camera effects, great cast featuring main stays of the classics. This is a must have for the collector of slasher films. Two severed thumbs up.

Great acting, production, over stuffed plot

First let me say that i am a fan of The principle actors in this film and that may cloud my perspective. The performances are wonderful, the production values and look are excellent and I am sure there is an excellent story in there it was just to much backstory, to much political intrigue for a murder mystery. I know it is difficult to trim the hundreds of pages in a novel into a 100 to 120 page screenplay but the only thing missing was the kitchen sink, no wait i saw one of those in there. Overall I liked the movie, but it should have stayed a movie and not tried to become a "film", it is the rare accomplishment to due both.

You won't be disappointed

Some times the hype overwhelms the item it is trying to promote. You won't be disappointed here. This film is the rare combination of heartfelt emotion and raw power that you don't see often in films today. All performances are first rate and the script and direction are deft and on point. They tell the incredible story of an extraordinary man and his all to brief life. The special features while few show the way Chris Kyle touched those around him in a way few people can or even attempt to in this day and age.
