Blurb Movie Reviews - 'Campfire Tales'



Surprisingly, not bad. I was expecting a 'David Decoteau-bad-B-movie', but it's pretty decent. It also has actors that we know today, at the beginning of their careers [for the most part]. In it were the following:

Christine Taylor [Ben Stiller's wife, Zoolander, The Brady Bunch Movie]

Amy Smart [Win A Date With Tad Hamilton]

Ron Livingston [Office Space, Sex and The City]

James Marsden [Cyclops from Xmen, and Superman]

Jacinda Barrett [Real World London, Poseidon]

Glenn Quinn [Played Mark on Roseanne]

Chris Masterson [Malcom In The Middle, brother of Danny Masterson [That 70's Show]]

These kids get in to a car accident, and decide to start a fire and tell 'ghost stories' while waiting for the cops to show up.

First story is about newlyweds on a road trip that get harassed. The second, which was the most creepiest, was about this girl who gets stalked online, and then for real when she's home by herself, by a guy.

The last one creeped me out because it reminded me of a story I read in grade school. It was about this woman, who always wore a choker necklace. Her hubby asked her to take it off but she always refuses. So while she's asleep, he cuts it off, only to find that her head falls off, as she yells back 'I told you I couldn't take it off!'. It creeped me out as a kid, and has stuck with me to this day.

The end of the movie has a twist which I actually didn't see coming, surprisingly. Overall, a pretty good 'horror' flick.
