Guess I was being too smug about catching a slip-up to watch the credits all the way through.<BR/><BR/>Just realized--there's a low-budget indie from a couple years back that's essentially the same movie except it's set in the 1800s. Oh, and instead of scarecrows, it has ghost monsters. It's called "Dead Birds," it stars Elliot from E.T., and it's way better than I'm making it sound.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13599870.post-45091678904784149472008-03-26T21:42:00.000-04:002008-03-26T21:42:00.000-04:00You know what I liked about this one- it was surpr...You know what I liked about this one- it was surprisingly <I>not</I> terribly dated.

I didnt get my site online, thats in the works, on time to post my review. But hopefully Ill have it up by the due date for the next selection.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, out of all the FGFC reviews, I think everything was covered pretty thoroughly. My favorite part had to be the mercs on the walkies, freakin Bert out. It reminded me of this one gag that I fell for at SpookyWorld, that was so awesome. My least favorite part was the recycled shots of the 3 scarecrows that they cut to 4 times, <I>UNTIL</I> they cut to it a 5th time, then the shots became my 2nd favorite part of the movie :) "I can see you breathing scarecrow #6!" lol.<BR/><BR/>The movie wasnt spectacular by any means, but it was definitely fun and a good choice for the FGFC in terms of "not-terrible 80's horror that not everyone has seen."Wes Fiercehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12142023846505984580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13599870.post-69977013259202635082008-03-24T16:53:00.000-04:002008-03-24T16:53:00.000-04:00I think 'demonic demons' was intentionally dumb as...I think 'demonic demons' was intentionally dumb as Curry chastises Jack a few seconds later with "demonic demons... christ."

It would get me good and bored, and then, just when my mind would start to wander, it'd hit me with a fairly impressive (could be an expectations thing) sequence.

Dug the news-anchor voiceover ending, too; I'm a sucker for verite touches like that.<BR/><BR/>The soundtrack was dreadful, though, and not in the sense of promoting dread. Not bad music per se, just too busy for the subject. Very '70s TV movie when some minimalist synth would've served it better.<BR/><BR/>Anybody else notice that it's just called "Crows" when the end credits roll?<BR/><BR/>p.s. Let's say someone had an unfortunate tendency to filibuster these threads--in order to become a "Coolie" for the next FGFC installment, and thus offshore the longwindedness, would this individual have to be the proprietor of a blog worth reading, or would a rarely-updated clunker with an unwieldy URL be acceptable?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13599870.post-14468386139659450192008-03-24T16:16:00.000-04:002008-03-24T16:16:00.000-04:00Wait . . was he the older cop who met the busines...Wait . . was he the older cop who met the business end of a shovel in Killer Workout?
