Synopsis

Leon: What’s up, Toots?
It would not have exploded, he would have done better to hit him with it.. Right, well the movie’s cover and title was enough to make me stop and take notice of this movie. Sure, I had never heard about this movie from director Bruce Wemple, so I didn’t know what I was in for. But it being a horror movie that I hadn’t already seen was more than sufficient to make me sit down and give it a go.
So sitting through 88 minutes of this movie was a bit of a struggle
Writers Bruce Wemple and LeJon Woods put together a rather weak storyline that didn’t prove either overly entertaining nor scary. I must admit that I had hoped for a bit more, given the movie’s cover. I wasn’t familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie, but it should be said that while the storyline was rubbish, then the acting performances were actually fair. Not a particularly great horror movie, nor a movie that will ever grace my screen a second time, because it was boring enough sitting through it the first time.
Visually then "The Hangman" didn’t impress either
The movie made use of very few special effects. And as for the creature seen on the movie’s cover, well don’t get your hopes up, as it is hardly in the movie at all. The movie’s cover was actually the best part about the entire ordeal. If you enjoy horror movies, I wouldn’t recommend you to waste 88 minutes on watching this 2024 movie from director Bruce Wemple.
