Urban Legend

I have always loved this movie, just fun, the women astonishingly don't get on my nerves, though i can't stand Leto. Love it that Englund is in it. Pays some homage to the good 80's slashers. Good one, fun like Cherry Falls.

It's a great slasher with some surprisingly fun kills, and the scene where the goth roommate gets killed made me laugh so much.

The Good - Killer revealed at the end was actually fantastic. I loved the manic, improv driven performance. The Bad - Everything else. The Ugly -the Editing. Flashing and overly loud music are not scary. Stop it.

It's clearly tried to compete with Scream and I know What You Did Last Summer. Those movies are way better than this. Only highlight is Robert England as a college professor that's it.

Urban Legend is the prime example of how a good premise can be let down by just poor storytelling. The whole concept is interesting enough with the title a dead giveaway. What's disappointing is that every horror movie cliché is used here- horror theme music every time something happens, car stalls while killer prowls around, ominous telephone ring, desperate run from killer, the stunning 'anti-climax' and the shameless of gore and blood. The acting is over the top with every scream accentuate with the lame soundtrack. The last twenty minutes the whole thing falls apart as the film abandons all pretence of reality or cohesion. Urban Legend in a nutshell is disappointing with poor acting and an awful soundtrack.

Urban Legends is one of those better teen horror flicks. Somebody is killing students at a campus based on Urban Legends. I agree with those people that said that there was some "Scream" similarity going on but it was still a fine movie. It has a very surprising ending, and throughout the movie are some interesting scenes followed by good acting. I would give Urban Legends 8/10

Fantastic! This is almost the perfect film for any slasher film fan to sit down at watch if there's a couple of hours to kill. There's jumps, scares, some great death scenes (opening scene one of the best I've seen), will keep you guessing, not only who the killer is, but also on the 'urban legend' the killer is about to use to kill their victim. Really, to summarise this film, if you like scream, you'll like this, if not, then you won't simples!

Good Film. It Was Extremely Scary. Although it wasn't The Type of Scary That Could Drive Victims Mad, I Still Enjoyed It. I Mean, What Is It Lacking? We Have Beautiful Young Girls, Original Death Scenes, A Masked Killer, And Most Importantly we Have Stormy Weather. This Has all The Criteria of a Friday the 13th Film. A Must See For All Horror Fans.
