This movie is a lot of fun! I really enjoyed it


Aside from being a clear throwback to the 80's slashers, I just thought the film was expertly paced and very entertaining. Victor Crowley was a crazy villain and his kills were so over-the-top and gruesome/hilarious; the film had no problems balancing the horror with the comedy. It's obvious you're not supposed to take "Hatchet" seriously and with that in mind it's just dumb fun.

I completely agree. The only thing that ruined it for me was the sound track. Too upbeat and poppy. This is a great popcorn film. Not to be taken too seriously, fun to watch and ridiculously over the top like good slashers from the past.

I love the light/shade aspect of this film! The poppy music, the brutal gore, coupled with the hilarious writing... Made this film a great watch!

The only thing that ruined it for me was actually watching this movie. Other than that, I loved it!!

this movie was hilarious, the comedy balanced the gore (the kills are brutal) I thought it was more funny than anything, Victor Crowley was scary as sh*t! and he had absolutely no feelings, he just wanted to kill! super scary and funny, highly recommend this, just don't take it seriously!
