      Audience Member This was a fun variation on The Wicker Man theme. Like it says in the synopsis, four guys go on a team building exercise in the English countryside only to come across the Gravehills farm where the three Tanner sisters live. They are not your garden variety of sisters since they seem to be from another decade due to their clothing and old ways. These sisters harbor a deep dark secret. One that spans nearly 300 years. A long time ago their mother was hanged for witchcraft and they were taken care of by their father who would molest them. They put a stop to it, but not in the nick of time since he was able to curse them just before his ultimate demise. They make him out to be the scarecrow for the farm since do to being cursed his body will not lay within the Earth. So, the sisters resurrect their father who promises them that their souls will not perish in hell unless they're able to acquire five souls. Hence the four guys, but the lack of mathematical skills didn't sway me from the proceedings of the story. (A bartender becomes the fifth guy anyway.) I was surprised by how good this was in it's creative means of trying something a little different in the witchcraft genre. The direction is stylistic and the substance of it's gory story did well to manage a fun viewing. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member It is not scary, the acting is terrible and the storyline stupid.....don't watch it, you'll only regret it.... Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Scarecrow films, there should be more of them. In this British movie 4 geniunely unlikable lads go on a bit of outdoor pursuit and end up on a cursed farm. In order to break the curse the 3 "witches" have to replace the scarecrow they made from their dear old absive dad with bits of corpses. Thankfully for the witches the 4 dicks are thinking with theirs and are easy prey. I see no one else has reviewed this film I suspect that is because they do not have the constitution for watching half baked shite that I do. I'm the motherfucking Ray Mears of movie reviews braving all kinds of dismal bollocks because they are the most fun. This movie was not fun it could give you a hernia as your internal organs struggle to kill you so you stop watching. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member If you like to see exceptionally stupid men dying horribly, this is the film for you. Honestly, there's nothing else to it. Not good. Not bad enough to be funny. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
