With the Scarecrow Festival on the horizon, teacher Aaron Harris is giving out punishment for six students serving detention.
Their task is to help Aaron's ex-girlfriend Kristen fix her family farm before it's sold. But the cornfields circling the farm come with a legend that never sleeps, never dies, can't be stopped, and hear their cries.
When the students play a terrifying game of cat and mouse in the cornfield with what they think is a wild animal, Kristen tries to convince them that the Scarecrow is very real, and rejuvenated by the blood of its prey.......
Apart from the not too bad CG of the titular creature, this is nothing more than a cheap knock off of Jeepers Creepers one and two.
We have the obligatory biggish name actress in the form of 'megastar' Lacey Chabert, and the bloke who was in the straight to DVD sequels to Cruel Intentions, and The Skulls. We are talking high profile here...
Add you stereotypical bunch of high school students, and you have a recipe for a film that sounds good on paper, but the finished product is just a waste of time for everyone involved.
All of the cast try to do their best with the poor script, and the reasoning behind the shape shifting of the Scarecrow is never fully explained.
So we get nothing more than silly kids running around into dark places, thinking they can kill something supernatural by stabbing and shooting it. Have they never seen a low budget horror film before?
Of course they haven't, They are in a horror film, which is meta.
And meta rhymes with better, which the writers must do next time...
