Wiki Article

Hatchet 3 (2013) is the third film of horror in the Hatchet Series. It follows the story of Victor Crowley's ongoing adventures as well as his escapade through Louisiana's Honey Island Swamp. Kane Hodder plays Victor Crowley, Brian Quinn portrays Deputy Winslow, Rileah vanderbilt portrays Misty.



The strength of the movie lies in its practical special effects. Hatchet 3 is a modern horror film that relies heavily on CG effects. Hatchet 3 focuses mainly on realistic makeup effects as well as sets. This results in terrifying scenes.

The cast gives a strong performance, with Kane Hodder standing (click now to view clip) out as an incredibly terrifying villain. It feels like a slasher film from the 1980s, with the dialogue being a bit too funny and snarky. There are also instances of humor throughout the film that add humor to all bloody action.

However, due to the limited budget (reportedly only $1 million) most locations used are repeats from earlier films in the series--the identical boat house was used twice in the film and much of it appears to be a re-use from other films in this series. This can make it seem like it's all too familiar for those who have watched Hatchet or Hatchet 2

Overall, Hatchet 3 was enjoyable, even though it felt very similar in tone to previous installments within the series. It was filled with gory thrills as well as entertaining performances by the cast members.
