| ESplatterLucius Gore... [I]f you're looking for a killer horror rental, you'd be hard-pressed to beat it. |
| Daily DeadHeather WixsonIt may not necessarily be flawless in its execution, but Scarecrows is a pretty admirable filmmaking achievement in many ways. As far as first-time features go, director Wesley shows an immense talent for being able to make a lot out of so little. |
| TheBluFile.comDustin Putman"Scarecrows" can be picked apart quite easily, but there is also a reason the film has gained a small yet passionate cult following in the decades since its release. |
| Time OutDerek AdamsAlthough a little slow to get started, this better-than-average horror movie makes excellent use of its creepily-lit monsters, is reasonably well put together, and features some stomach-turning grisliness. |
| User Reviewsquirlsaw massacreThis is a little known gem from the late 80's I really love this movie. Good scares and even better gore!! Check it out |
| User ReviewTodd CThis film scared the beejesus out of me one chilly night back in 1988. The house was dark, and the biting wind outside made for the perfect setting. The ominous score that opens the film is a prize among soundtracks, done by Terry Plumeri. As a plane full of robbers end up in a condemned farm, they are brutally butchered by 3 scarecrows that have pulled themselves from their respective crosses and are looking for victims. These 3 creatures are elusive, rotting revenants protecting their land. I will give little away, as the film is worth seeing. The creep factor is often "off the charts" with eerie lighting, chilling sounds, and rather graphic death sequences. It is a film that does not compromise or disappoint. It holds a special place in fan's hearts, as it is so much better than what Hollywood calls "horror" there days! |
| User ReviewEmily MThis is a film i watched when it came out first, i was 15, and it was ok, its only now when i look at it again and again, you can appreciate how good it was, can you still get this in shops. |
| User ReviewJulia MThis is one scary movie. A straight-to-video surprise. I always did find scarecrows a bit creepy, but these are malignant horrors, worthy of Professor Crane himself. |
| User Reviewneil kI am so pleased they finally released the uncut version on dvd. This under-rated horror flic is definately worth watching ... again and again. |
| User ReviewHayden LA unique, and creepy film. This film proves that not everything needs to be explained in order for it to be a great horror film. The plot and storyline itself is very unique and original, unlike anything I've ever seen before. It has some good performances, great atmosphere, and some truly disturbing antagonists. |
