The World Needs More Killer Scarecrows

Hey guys, remember that movie 'The Messengers' about some ghost on a farm with Kristen Stewart-before-she-was-Twilight-famous? Yeah, neither did I. But apparently enough people paid for it, because there's a sequel, and it's about a scarecrow this time. Wait, a fucking scarecrow?! I'm totally in.



Shit, no Kristen Stewart. She's too big now. And also I guess because it's a prequel. I know if I had ever watched that first Messengers, I would've asked myself, "But what happened before Kristen Stewart lived on that farm?!?!"

But seriously, why aren't there any good scarecrow movies lately? It looks like the 80's had the market cornered, especially with this, about a bunch of people with guns battling a bunch of stab-happy scarecrows.


Now, I'm just going to guess that the scarecrow in 'Messengers 2' won't be stabbing that little boy in the face or cutting his hand off. Which is really a shame. For some reason, whenever I think of creepy scarecrows, my mind immediately goes to that part in Jeepers Creepers 2 when-oh hell, here's the clip:

Say what you will about that movie, but that scene is undeniably awesome.

'Messengers 2: Scarecrow' comes straight to DVD TODAY(!), so hurry out there, buy three copies, watch them over and over in a rotation, and tell me what you think.
