Jason: Hatchet III might very well be the greatest movie ever made. Sure, there's better movies. More award-worthy movies. Classics that stand the test of time. But Hatchet III knows what it is, knows what its fans want to see, and delivers on every count. Few movies can say that, especially those pretentious Academy Award movies. I spit on them. Hatchet III gives us the goods. It shows us all the kills, all the gore. There's humour here too, although not as much as the first two movies. But who cares? I've bought it already. I will watch it again and again. Hatchet III is a Good and then some. Shawn: Sometimes a movie can tick all a dude's boxes on a day that fits whatever mood he's in. Today, that movie is Hatchet III. Sometimes I say (without going all gore porn like Saw ) "show us the damn head stomp, show us the ripping in half"....it's soooo frustrating when a movie doesn't. That said, there is a line between gore porn and nec...

Regular updates will resume as the summer progresses. We'll be fully back in business by the time Season Five commences Oct. 10.

I don't think any self-respecting horror fan can call themselves a self-respecting horror fan without watching Adam Green 's old-school slasher flick Hatchet and its sequel, the appropriately titled Hatchet II. Although far from perfect, Hatchet and Hatchet II bring fun back to the slasher subgenre with over-the-top gore and character-driven humour. And they've got a great antihero in Victor Crowley . I mean really great. Suffice to say we in The Basement are pretty damn excited that Hatchet III -- which feels like it's been filming for fucking ever -- hits theatres June 14. That's not far off, and that's fine by us. But wait, there's more. We've scored the teaser trailer for director BJ McDoonnell's film. So why not watch it now: This time around a search and recovery team heads into the haunted swamp to pick up the pieces and Marybeth ( Danielle Harris ) learns the secret to ending the voodoo curse that has left Victor Crowley h...
