You have to be really patient to get to the good stuff here. A quick gore throw away with Robt. Englund sets the stage for close to an hour before any action follows. No story follows either. Essentially this wants to be the new Friday the 13th. However, it only has enough materi...( read more)
Just plain FUN!!! The gore is fantastic, the cameos from horror icons is fun and the comedy (while a little overdone) is enjoyable! Horror cliche after horror cliche has never been so fun, since there is tounge in cheek all the way and it never takes itself too seriously at all! ...( read more)
Some pretty decent kill sequences, but the plot was far too dull to keep me interested.
Tagged as an old school American horror this definitely felt like watching an older horror film along the lines of Friday the 13th. However mixed with some very over the top gore from more recent horror films and you get this. Featuring cameos from Robert Englund, Tony Todd and K...( read more)
Truly disastrous!!! I had been under the impression that this film was going to be a reasonably good slasher film, it was nothing of the sort.
It was a teen movie, with a silly plot,, with a cameo role from two previous horror icons. The acting was awful, the 'thing' chasing...( read more)
Kane Hodder as another blade wielding mongoloid, what more could you ask for? Maybe ultra violence and a Robert Englund cameo, which this has. It's a simple plot, but was done very well.
Traverses gross-out comedy shtick and slasher flick territories with middling results as both elements lack refinement. The dialogue often sounded too written (and overly coarse) and the horror too predictable. They do get the camp factor right, best demonstrated by 'Candyman' ...( read more)
GREAT horror comedy.I think 10-20 years from now itll be a cult classic
Plenty of gore in Hatchet but there's nothing going on here to think is the best thing since Halloween or Friday the 13th.Probably the best thing after Wayan bros Scary movie.
Hatchet delivers good traditional gore effects that reminds of the 80's which i enjoy so much,besides that nothing else seems to work for me from the story,dialog,annoying characters & not even a good score to create suspense.Nothing scary about this film because at all times it wants to be funny & even the deformed creature named Victor Crawling becomes a silly character which i don't see this thing to be the next horror icon.I wasn't expecting a stupid horror/comedy.The only reason to watch this film because of the over the top gory moments.

Disappointed because i couldn't wait to see this film.3/5 stars just for the gore.
I was just wondering, are Kane Hodder and Robert Englund really in this movie because I never heard anything about them being in it. If they are, this movie is already in my favorites. haha
Well, not all people here are Americans. Or people from the States to be precise.
