Skeleton Man (2004)

bad writing good cast wooded arrow takes out a rotor on a helicopter come on. Delta force does not fire a shot until 54 minutes in the movie ? It is hard to believe in the cast or the movie when you set it up to fail with bad writing the writer needs to find another job.I gave it a 6 because you have a great cast and the makings of a good movie but you need the audience to believe in the characters and believe they are there and what would they do. I can tell you I would have fired my rifel long before anyone in the film did. The other thing they never actually explain why the Indian betrayed his tribe you need detail on a back story. Well if you are bored I recommend watching this but if there something better on skip it.

Movies can be bad in many ways- bad acting, bad direction, bad or no story, bad music. But this movie is bad in an uncommon way. It looks as if they ran out of money and had nothing left for post-production. The music but particularly the editing are a disaster, rendering this movie not fit for release.Some military guys are killed bloodily by some creature dressed up as the grim reaper with a very oversize gown and hood. This creature on a horse can further travel through wormholes in space to end up somewhere else, usually, 5 feet further.A team of special forces is sent to deal with the situation. This team of experts include a bunch of skinny girls who look like 3rd rate catalog models- they include sniper experts and so on.One by one the creature, will dispatch them in gory ways. There's plenty of gore and violence, there are a lot of pyro effects. That's pretty much it for the good aspects of this movie. This creature we learn is some type of native American who went crazy and gained superpowers somehow. The crew seemed to have money, there are helicopters and aerial shot in this movie. The villain is pretty ridiculous. And the way the story is told it just makes no sense. It would be interesting to see a report on what happened to this movie. Like I said, the resources, the casting is there but somehow it just didn't work.

Oh boy, I do believe I found a film worse than "Don't Go in the Woods"! I'm surprised I actually managed to get through as much of the movie as I did (30 minutes)! Do I even need to explain this movie's many many flaws and problems? I don't? Well, I'm going to anyway! First off, the "monster" is a hooded ghost that has the same vision as "Predator". So the monster is actually a cross between predator and the headless horseman. Right. The acting is terrible, like where did they get these actors? I didn't believe that anybody could be THIS bad at acting! Oh yes, and the special effects. Well, they ain't exactly Tom Savini, that's for sure. The people who get killed look like they spilled some ketchup on themselves while eating lunch. Actually, I wouldn't be surprised if that wasn't the case. Anyway, if you happen to spot this one in the bottom of the five dollar bin, then make a cross with your fingers and run away screaming. Whatever you do: Don't. Watch. This. Movie. Do it for your sanity.Rated: R for Ketchup and Tough-Talking Army Guys.Grade: F

I loved it! I mean, hippies as soldiers: brilliant! Covert indeed.Seriously, this movie had just enough explosions, gore and cheesy plot to satisfy any B horror movie fanatic.My only complaints are that the most badass and hottest chick died first, while the prissy girly girl lived, and we never got to see skeletor's bones scatter everywhere, camera focusing on that one bone that ends up growing into a skeletor tree foreshadowing certain doom for any imbecile who chooses to hike the Appalachians in the future.Also, I couldn't stop from shouting: "use your gravity gun" when the dude was trying to pull out the giant plug toward the end. That, and the lack of crowbars around the wooden crates made me antsy.Great flic! So lucky it was cheap so I can watch it over and over.
