This review is from: Legend of Hillbilly John [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I'm crazy for Manly Wade Wellman's writing. I saw the only other video available - an episode of the twilight zone and an episode of Night Gallery; so I had to watch this movie. The music is excellent as it really fits the mood of the Silver John books.
But the special effects are so cheesy that they are comical especially to me as I grew up sneaking bad horror movies when the baby siter was talking on the phone. You can check out www.manlywadewellman.com for more info. You should watch it for the music and the beautiful mountain scenery. The effects would have been better served by taking a BLAIR WITCH approach and not showing very much.

Delightful Z-Movie,
This review is from: Legend of Hillbilly John [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This movie must have had a budget of $1.98. For such a low budget, though, it is excellent. It has the feel of Manly Wade Wellman, although the added Grandpa John, and the girl who isn't Evadare, don't fit. Other than that, it's decent. It's also rather antigovernment, but then, most intelligent people are, I guess. The greatest evil has got to be Congress, right? It's cheesy, but it's well worth watching.
