Robert D The idea? Clever. The acting? Not THE worst, but it’s not good. But this feels honestly like what started Yandere simulator. I mean, really. And I’m almost amazed by how much were shocked by the Draino scene. Yes, they probably added a few bits of Agar or whatever to make it foamy as if it were real Draino, I’ll give people that, but still. And the motivation of the antagonist? Makes no sense whatsoever. And if you’re gonna do that, do it with a bit more mystery and passion like you’d maybe see in a Jason Bourne or Mission Impossible movie. BUT, I will say that this is better than Final Destination, I do not care what anybody says about how good those catastrophizing movies are.

Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/09/25 Full Review Ethan G Borrowing heavily from “I Know What You Did Last Summer” and “Scream”, “Urban Legend” is “Scary Movie” minus the parody. It’s a predictable, but mostly harmless slasher. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/18/25 Full Review rosie b The film obviously tried to piggy back off the success of Scream, but with much less satisfying results. Fun and forgettable. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/17/25 Full Review Justin T I enjoy this film way more than I should. It came at a time when teen slashers were ruling the cinemas with Scream (1996), I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997) and Cherry Falls (1999). I just love this time for films, you know the teenage victims, cinematic camera and the worse of a person you are the sooner that you die. There may have been a mystery as to who the killer is but that didn’t matter, it was a simpler and more fun time. The pacing for this film is excellent, there aren’t any dull moments and the climax is riveting. A lot of this is down to the great production design and cinematography. The characters are memorable and the cast is good except for Alicia Witt in the lead role who is pretty wooden. My only gripe is that it is not as violent as I remembered. Very enjoyable slasher with a silly but fun premise. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/20/25 Full Review SkyRo P "Urban Legends" is a distinctive film that attempted to engage horror enthusiasts by weaving together various intriguing scenarios. Featuring a cast of B-list actors for that time and actresses from that era, the film aimed to breathe life into lesser-known tales, offering a playful and imaginative experience. However, it seems the movie ultimately fell short of expectations, lacking impact on both critical and commercial levels. While it has garnered a fan base during the cult classic phase, it doesn't hold a lasting place in mainstream cinema. It's the kind of film you might stumble upon and remember vaguely, unless you belong to the dedicated group of horror aficionados who regard it as a hidden gem. In my opinion, the performances were mediocre at best. The screenplay offered a rather simplistic narrative that failed to tap into the potential depth a horror film could achieve. The main antagonist lacked the believability and menace necessary to stand alongside iconic figures like Freddy Krueger, Chucky, Pennywise, Michael Myers, Jason Voorhees, or even Art the Clown. This film, and its villain, simply lack the enduring legacy that fans of the genre often seek. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/06/25 Full Review Read all reviews
