Watch Hangman's Curse For Free

That was an excellent one.

Just what I expected

Crappy film

After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

A note to anybody who has read the book: This is not a page for page movie version of the book. It is only loosely based on the book. That being said, I actually enjoyed this movie. It kept to the book (which was awesome) just enough to give a sense of familiarity, yet was original enough in it's own right that it still gave a few surprises. I actually liked the movie ending a lot better than the book ending, because it actually wrapped things up quite nicely. Even though the acting wasn't spot on, the actors still gave a decent representation of the book characters, especially Mr. Peretti. His performance as a crazy scientist was over the top and brilliant. For anybody watching this expecting a horror movie, you might be a little disappointed. There are a few "jump scenes", bit overall it's a pretty family friendly movie. So overall I recommend this movie.

Can you imagine this: the „Spy kids" (and their parents) try to solve the mystery of a strange curse while working undercover in the world of "High School Musical"? Sounds like a great parody, but sadly, this isn't one. "Hangman's Curse" takes itself serious, and this is a big, big, HUGE mistake!When the film starts, you didn't notice anything unusual for a typical B-Horror-movie. We learn that a secret group exists, called the "Veritas" project, we see a somber student hang himself (lets say we can imagine it, luckily they don't show the poor guys death) and then the local football-players from his High school seems to be cursed by the mysterious hangman. Nothing new so far, but as a fan of B-Movies I was interested and keep on watching.Then we meet the agents of the Veritas project. Actually, they hunt drug dealers undercover. Hm. A bit confusing to me: Why should a paranormal organization hunt simple drug dealers (unless they are Vampires or Ghosts…)? I forgot that point as I realized, that these agents are – a family! Mom, Dad, and two Teenager (sister+brother) are the Veritas Project. While I tried to realize this, they get their next assignment: Working undercover in a High School. And now, the director really lost it. Instead of horror action we dive into the world of a typical American High School with every cliché you can think of! We have all the groups there. The Football Players. The Gothics. The Nerds.I still can't believe that any producer paid money to make such a ridiculous (but completely unfunny!) movie! Why does actors like David Keith ("Firestarter") and Tom Wright ("Marked for Death" , "Martial Law") waste their talent in such a crap? Well, this movie is nonetheless an important film for me. Cause the next time someone ask me "What is the worst horror movie you ever saw?" I can say: "Hangman's Curse!"

I really liked this movie. It was a great mix of a lot of elements. I screamed really loud when Elisha was attacked in the witch's place in the school. I don't really understand why everyone is so upset about Ian and Crystal turning "preppy". I'd like to point out that all they did was turn from being suicidal social outcasts into regular happy teenagers. I don't see what is wrong about that. Overall this was a VERY good movie. I recommend this movie to anyone who would like to see a movie about really teens and their problems. It's a great horror/romance/comedy/Christian movie.

Not a teen slasher flick...but teens do go down, one by one. Bullies and jocks at Rogers High School die shouting the name of a former student Abel Frye(George Humphreys), who hung himself in a wing of the school still under construction. David Keith plays a special investigator, who along with his wife(Mel Harris), son(Douglas Smith) and daughter(Leighton Meester)work undercover at the school to discover the truth about the legendary curse and end its death grip on the school. Actually interesting and worth watching. Keith fit his role perfectly. Harris seemed pedestrian at best.The cast includes: Edwin Hodge, William R. Moses, Daniel Farber and Margaret Travolta.
