It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

I expected the worst here I have to be honest, every previous movie regarding the Headless Horseman mythos has failed royally.Early on it follows the usual formula of a bunch of 20 somethings on a road trip going on a shortcut and running into trouble. So little originality is on display, then you have the shoddy sfx and patchy script and the thing was setup to follow suit and fail miserably.However somehow it came out watchable. The cast are oddly competent, Richard Moll is present and the practical effects look great.Sadly it does trail off a bit and yes as mentioned it has its fair share of flaws. Thankfully there is enough decent content to counter this and Headless Horseman though nothing special is a harmless take your brain out horror effort.I'll say this, it was still better than Sleepy Hollow (1999)The Good:Horseman actually looks okayCast do a great jobRichard MollThe Bad:Patchy scriptSFX aren't greatThings I Learnt From This Movie:When blowing up a car you may as well blow yourself up with it because reasonsHomeless people wouldn't miss their heads

In "Headless Hoseman," seven college students on the road to get to a Halloween party take a detour into the bowels of hell. They stumble upon a small town in the middle of nowhere, and they soon find themselves trapped there, as unwitting victims of the Headless Horseman who, after every seven years, resurfaces to earth to claim the heads of seven kids...otherwise the entire town goes to hell with the Horseman.For a Sci-Fi original film, I was impressed with the effects (albeit they were still horrible, but not as bad as some other Sci-Fi original films) and even the acting of the seven students. I somewhat cared if they survived, although I predicted who would survive at the beginning of the film, and I was right, but still I was rooting for them to make it through and especially send the whole inbred town (oops, did I give that away? Well I guess that's why I say there's spoilers) straight to hell where it belongs.I won't say it as a B-rated horror film, I feel it was slightly above B...I don't know what that is exactly, but it's a little better than B-rated.

OK so i heard about it while watching the SCIFI channel and it looked really interesting so on the day after it came out i sat down and watched it. it was really good. decent acting, the horseman was awesome and the part where he rides the motorcycle out was cool. over all i give it a 8 out of 10 because it was just a thriller, not scary but it was awesome i just don't get why people say it sucked, i think it was a good movie. just give the actors a chance jeez. And besides its a scifi movie what do you expect but this turned out to be a good one. story is kinda weird i thought it was gonna follow the actual story but in the end it was alright. when they release it on DVD i'll be sure to pick it up.

This, broadcast last weekend was the latest entry in the SciFi channels efforts to make the worst movies of all time. When I am watching a movie like this I'm perfectly able to suspend my belief in the "Real World" and accept the premises of the film. What I can't accept is, within the aforementioned premises, the complete abandonment of normalish standards of behaviour. That's the problem here. The story is an old one and has been told before. In this case a group of kids end up in a mysterious village and the malevolent townspeople don't intend letting them leave. I don't know any of the cast but if normally playing idiots is their thing, they succeed here.All sorts of glaringly obvious escapes are just ignored and stupidity rules the day. Only watch this if you have recorded it so you can liberally use the FF button.
