Wiki Article

Hatchet 3 is the Hatchet's horror film from 2013. It follows the ongoing adventures of Victor Crowley's adventures in Louisiana's Honey Island Swamp, as well as his brutal murderous rampage. Kane Hodder portrays Victor Crowley while Brian Quinn plays Deputy Winslow. Rileah Vanbilt plays Misty.



The film's main strength lies in its use of practical special effects. Hatchet 3 uses a majority of practical makeup effects and sets. This is different from the majority of horror films nowadays that heavily rely on CG effects. The film also has several truly terrifying moments.

Kane Hodder is a standout among the cast, and he's an intimidating villain. It's like a slasher film from the 1980s, with the dialogue being a (blog post) bit too tongue-in-cheek and campy. There are also some hilarious moments that stand out in all the heart-wrenching scenes.

However because of the small budget (reportedly only $1 million) many locations used are re-used from earlier films in the series. The same boat house was used two times within the movie and much of it feels like it's been recycled from other films in this franchise. Hatchet or Hatchet II may find it familiar, and this can lead to the film feeling almost too familiar.

Overall, Hatchet 3 was a excellent series overall. There was plenty of gory thrills, and there were several great performances by the actors.
