Remember the first time you watched the X-Men movie they recently made and thought ‘This music isn’t up to the usual standard of Bryan Singer films’ and this film is why. John Ottman is a score composer, that’s what he does well, not directing. This is his first attempt at directing and it leaves you asking why he tried to direct a film that has zero plot and what must be the most cliché filled horror script of the last 20 years. ITS NOT EVEN A PROPER SEQUEL, it takes place at a different place, with different characters and a different killer, even after the sequel friendly ending of the first. This sequel is set at a totally ...  Read the complete review

Jamie Blanks’ Urban Legend was an abysmal movie rising up out of the success of Wes Craven’s Scream like so many(far too many!) others in the 90s. It was trash, but it was trash with a rather interesting idea and it also happened to gross over $38million at the box office which to anyone who knows anything at all about horror movies means one inevitable thing. A sequel. And a naff one at that. Well, exactly 2 year to the day the sequel arrived with the intriguing title of Urban Legend: Final Cut hinting initially that it would be the second and (shock horror, surely not!) final Urban Legend movie in the series. Normally you would ...  Read the complete review

This is the second of two films, but lets get one thing straight, IT'S NOT A SEQUEL. With only one character from the first film still standing it's hardly surprising, but she has joined in here too. One good thing is you don't have to watch the first movie (Urban Legends) to be able to understand this one. At the begining of the film you see the inside of a passenger aircraft and a couple who head into the toilet together and do something that wouldn't be the obvious thing to do when there is a serial killer on board who has already killed the poilots. Blissfully unaware of the danger the couple carry on until the girl gets distracted by ...  Read the complete review

Urban Legend directed by John Ottman. Rated 18 i think. After the disappointing ending of "Urban Legend," I was anticipating seeing the "Final Cut." Amy Mayfield (Jennifer Morrison) is a student at a film school. All the students have to make a film to submit for the much coveted 'Hitchcock Award.' The winner of this award is pretty much guaranteed that they will be able to make movies in Hollywood. After talking with the campus' security guard (Loretta Devine, an original from the first UL), Amy decides to do her movie on the story of a college campus that has a killer murdering people by the urban legend theme. That is ...  Read the complete review

If you have seen the original urban legends, then stop now, and make sure you don’t do yourself the injustice of watching this steaming pile of crap! For a start, how can you call this a sequel when the plot if almost completely difference, there is only a single cast member that remains from the original movie (not even the killer from the first film makes a show until the last scene!) and it’s a completely different outlook on this movie. The plot of this movie is around a group of film making students, I think, but so bad was this film, I found it hard to take in. When a student makes a claim of a film that based around urban legends, the murders ...  Read the complete review
