Rating:  - Terrifying And Entertaining Movie
I watched this on November 1st. It would have been appropriate watching it a day earlier. This is a very scary movie, relying on terror rather than bloods and guts. It is rated PG-13, and deservedly so, but this is one PG-13 movie that is ideal for a teen-age audience (but not for a younger audience) as opposed to PG-13 movies which are close to being an R-rated movie.
The acting is not Academy Award worthy but is good. Especially good is the supporting role of Algernon played ... Read More
Rating:  - Hangman's Cursed by O.K. Acting
From the deep dark recesses of a high school comes the curse of Abel Frye...aptly portrayed in the opening scene and following scene of the football team's quarterback melting away psychologically during the game.

However, at the time I was led to believe that this was a horror film (the cover art also implies this), but that is far from the truth... I had not read the book that this film was based ...

Rating: - Good moral, good story, decent acting.
The Hangmans Curse was well recieved by my grade nine and ten english and drama classes. They enjoyed the story and the characters. Some found the acting to be a bit overdone. I enjoyed the story because of the anti-bullying theme. Treating others with respect was a huge focus in the film, however, it wasn't a nagging or preaching kind of movie. When I told my students that it was produced by a christian group, they were rather suprised. As I am not christian, nor are manyof my students, I was worried ... Read More
