Urban Legends - Final Cut (2000)

Urban Legend 2

The scene on the bathtub alone makes the movie worth a look. The lead is great (Jennifer Morrison, from 'House M.D.'); cinematography and music are also appropriate. Not very original and the killer's revelation at the end is kinda dumb, though. Still, worthy sequel. Too bad UL3 (Bloody Mary) was awful beyound words and has nothing to do with either UL or UL2.

Good, But Definitetly Far From Great!!

I was excited to see "Urban Legends: Final Cut" because I remember seeing a commercial for it on television, yet never remembering its name. I found it here on Amazon, and I remembered instantly the commercial.

Okay. The storyline was good, but it was pretty badly played out. I mean, the deaths were good, but started to deteriorate throughout the entire movie. The first death was incredible, but then it just got boring and unoriginal.

The acting was good, I thought, and the killer was VERY mysterious and VERY creepy and original. I don't think a killer actually SCARED me before, but the costume in this movie was actually very mysterious and kind of freaky.

It was cool to see some of the most infamous urban legends played out in this movie, like the "people can lick too" story. No wonder the movie is called Urban Legends!!

Overall, this was an okay movie, which was good, but it was cheesy and very unoriginal and kind of boring at some parts. But it is definitely worth a try! December 31, 2007

A Very Good Sequel

This movie is an excellent follow-up to the original "Urban Legend".

The story centers around several film production students who attend the prestigious Alpine University film school; called "the best film school in the world" by one of the school's professors. Travis, the school's top student, has just turned in a sub-par thesis film for which he receives a low grade. Amy Mayfield (Jennifer Morrison) has decided to do her thesis film about a fictional campus serial killer who kills his victims by using urban legends. She brings her idea before her film professor and he seems to think that its an excellent idea. Both Amy and Travis are vying for the all-important Hitchcock film award, which carries a $15,000 prize and a virtual guarantee of a Hollywood film career.

Amy begins working on her project, and all seems to be going well initially until, mysteriously, students begin to turn up missing and, eventually, dead. The students have been killed by using urban legends, just as Amy has in her film. Additionally, Travis has killed himself in despair over his low grade, but someone stole Travis' original film and took credit for themselves.

Meanwhile, Trevor, Travis' twin brother, has come to Alpine to help solve Travis' death. Trevor doesn't believe that Travis killed himself, so, with Amy's help, the two begin searching for answers. Meanwhile, more students have been killed by the serial killer. Will Travis and Amy solve the murders before the killer reaches them?

This is a surprisingly good movie. The plot is excellent and it keeps you guessing right up to the end as to who the killer is. There are several suspects revealed throughout the film, but the killer's identity isn't revealed until the end. It was fun for me trying to figure out who the killer was. Of course, no horror movie would be complete without blood and guts, and this movie has plenty of both.

I recommend this movie very highly. No one is safe and everyone is a suspect. The story is well-conceived and the viewer will be kept guessing until the shocking conclusion. September 28, 2007

Really scary.

I wet myself the first time i saw it, it was so horribly bad. You will see some of the most retarded kills in film history as a man kidnaps a girls kidneys and feeds them to his dogs, a coathanger killer, and a professor stalking people around with a fencing mask on. He beats a guy to death with a CAMERA LENS. I MEAN COME ON PEOPLE, WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON IN THIS MOVIE. And the ending puts movies like eight legged freaks to shame. May 23, 2007
