Five people heist the Camp Pendleton payroll, kidnap a pilot and his daughter, who are forced to fly them to Mexico. En route a double cross has one of the thieves parachute with the loot into an abandoned graveyard surrounded by strange scarecrows.
I really wanted to like this film. A 1980s film with killer scarecrows? Yeah, that is something I can get behind. I like "Night of the Scarecrow", and "Dark Night of the Scarecrow"... heck, even "Hallowed Ground" is not completely terrible. But here, I guess I just did not see it.
And, again, I liked the idea of mixing an action and heist movie with horror. That is a very rare combination. But they could not pull it off, and it was left feeling convoluted. The confusion was compounded by the use of voices -- were they from the radio, the scarecrows, or where? Things were very unclear from one moment to the next.
