SnoopyStyle It's the 100th annual Scarecrow Festival. Marcy and Chad go into a barn to set up revenge against Nicki and Tyler but they are set upon by a mysterious creature. Nicki and Tyler have been put in detention for posting pictures of Marcy and Chad. Aaron Harris is the teacher in charge. Maris is a first-timer. Beth is the new girl. Calvin is the shy artist. Along with Daevon, the group is brought out to a farm to dismantle and bring back the original festival scarecrow. Kristen Mills (Lacey Chabert) comes out to meet her ex Aaron. She has also invited his friend-turned-enemy Eddie to make peace. The group is attacked by the creature.The detention premise is unlikely. There are plenty of unrealistic actions from the characters. The first half takes place in the daylight which devalues its horror values. The CGI creature is passable considering its TV use. The problem is that the daylight relegates it to a fake CGI creation. Even the night time has the harsh artificial lighting. The actors are all perfectly fine. The only known actor is Chabert and her biggest asset continues to be her chest. The movie never rises above being a cheaper TV horror.

Jon Patrick I believe that Scarecrow was the first made-for-TV movie that I've actually ever seen, so before-hand I wasn't 100% sure what to expect. Right off the bat any concerns I may have had were answered and made redundant and I find myself enjoying the movie right away.The budget, the acting (deserves huge praise) and the quality of production were all very good and made for a thoroughly enjoyable experience. The pacing of the movie was excellent and made sure that there was never a dull moment for me to lose interest.The story itself was not perfect and without spoiling anything there were a couple of inconsistencies, mainly regarding how/if the scarecrow could be killed, but these do not lessen the overall experience.I'd recommend this strongly to any horror lover, especially those who enjoy younger casts.

TheBlueHairedLawyer 'Scarecrow' has its flaws and its moments; it certainly beats some of the SyFy channel's other movies like "Dark Storm" and "Mongolian Death Worm" but it's cheesy and the characters are shallow. The plot follows a group of teens (who all look to be in their Twenties), who go to a day-long detention repairing a farmhouse right before the town's annual Scarecrow Festival. The main troublemakers seem to be Tyler and Nikki (Nikki is called a Goth but definitely doesn't look the part and is more of a sneaky brat than anything else). Anyway, as the plot goes on, an evil entity called The Scarecrow is disturbed and begins going on a killing rampage, taking any person or animal in the vicinity.The soundtrack wasn't bad, the acting wasn't the best but was better than the usual SyFy casts, and I've gotta say, the effects were pretty good! I was expecting really bad CGI and there was some, but a lot of the effects looked great in the movie. I wish there hadn't been so much sex jokes and that type of thing, crude humor has never appealed to me or made me interested in a horror movie, but it's easy to overlook since it seems to go away once Tyler and Nikki have "bought the farm".All in all, Scarecrow wasn't great, but it was much better than I was expecting. It's worth checking out for a fun Halloween movie with your friends or just to pass the time on a Saturday night. And if you don't like it, at least you can make fun of it.

Flow Got to say it first: I enjoyed this Scarecrow look! At first I was thinking that it is indeed original, by far, afterwards, maybe a little dumb, but after hearing the explanation in the plot, of how it got that way, yeah, hands down to this concept! I approve!So, Scarecrow 2013: a very nice and enjoyable movie, of course you must NOT expect too much, just some innocent fun, some almost scares, the most standard horror moves, "let's split off", "let's do that", "I can't believe it is real", and so on. But overall, better than those tryhard movies, that get lost in their own work. I approve to this one, for a cheesy cliché horror night!Really, not much to say about it, either you love it, or not. But if you do lower your expectations, and just sit, watch, eat popcorn and make fun, you might be in for exactly what you have hoped for. Fun fun fun!
