Urban Legend Movie Synopsis & Plot
Everyone has heard the story of the girl who was driving home late one night and she looked in her rear view mirror to see a man with an axe. Everyone has heard the story of the babysitter who was getting calls from upstairs. Everyone has heard the story about flashing your lights to warn oncoming cars only to have them turn around and kill you. These are urban legends. And someone is bringing them to life.
Natalie is the only one who knows what's going on. No one believes her claims that someone is mimicking urban legends and stalking her friends. No one believes that the decapitated woman is part of a strand of murders, at least until it happens to them. More and more people are dying and the killer seems to be resolving around Natalie. Who could it be? Her best friend Brenda? The school journalist Paul? Reese, the security guard? Sasha, the radio host? Or maybe even Professor Wexler, the only survivor of a college massacre that happened exactly twenty five years ago. Nevertheless, whoever it is, don't turn on the light.
MOVIE REVIEW
Urban Legend is no Oscar-winner, nor will it be praised for it's high talent. However, it does deliver a typical horror formula we've come to expect from Hollywood: comedy, violence, gore, and of course, scary scenes. Urban Legend has all of this, excessively. More comedy and inside jokes (not the Clearasil and Dawson Creek jokes), more gore, and lots of violence. From beginning to end, something is happening, and there are more jumpy scenes in Urban Legend than in most other horror movies combined. This is a must see for all those who love raw horror.Read our Urban Legend movie review »
