Episode 70: Hatchet

We're back this week doing another more modern day Slasher movie here at the U.  This week we're tacking Hatchet from 2006.  It's a nod to old school slashers made with more modern day special effects.  Join a group of tourists in the swamps of New Orleans.  Ben and his friend Marcus ditched out on Mardi Gras to go on a haunted swamp tour with an eclectic group of other tourists.  But after the boat gets stuck, the group find themselves stranded in the swamp.  It's not just any swamp.  It's a "haunted" swamp where the spirit of Victor Crowley stalks all those who venture in.  He's a hatchet-wielding, disfigured maniac and he hates trespassers.  You do the math students.  It gets gory.This is the first of our Advanced Placement SlashU classes where we'll be covering all the Hatchet movies.  So get out there on Tubi, give them a watch, and let us know what you think.  Follow and DM us on Instagram @SlashU_Podcast and check out www.SlashUPodcast.com for all the updates and other movies we've covered.--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/slashu/support Hosted on Acast.
