Plantiana Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

Wordiezett So much average

MamaGravity good back-story, and good acting

SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

Michael_Elliott Curse of the Headless Horseman (1972) BOMB (out of 4)Mark Callahan (Marland Proctor) inherits his uncle's old ranch so he takes his acting troop as well as various other hippies out there. It doesn't take long for them to realize that the legendary Headless Horseman is stalking the grounds.I kinda lied with my plot description because it did take a very long time to see the Headless Horseman because he didn't show up until the fifty-minute mark of an eighty-minute movie. CURSE OF THE HEADLESS HORSEMAN is the perfect example of why filmmakers shouldn't be dropping acid or other drugs whenever they're making movies. It might be unfair for me to accuse the filmmakers of taking drugs but that's the only logical way to explain this awful film.This film is pretty awful on all levels but it's just downright shocking at how stupid the entire film was. It almost seemed as if the director wanted to show off these various acts that range from acting shows to musical performances including one lady covering a Bob Dylan song. All of these scenes are just downright annoying and worst of all is the fact that the film drags so poorly. There's really not a single good moment to be found in this film so one can only hope that they manage to find something to laugh at.As I said, it takes forever for the Headless Horseman to finally appear and when he does it's very quick. I'm really not sure if they named the film this just to try and get people into the drive- in but as a horror movie it's pretty awful.

Chase_Witherspoon Amateurish and virtually incoherent with little sense, structure, plot development or solid narrative, there's very little to recommend. A voice-over tells us that Mark's uncle has died leaving to him a tourist ranch that he'll only fully inherit if he can turn it into a profitable concern in six months. Gathering up his hippie mates, he embarks on the ambitious task of converting the struggling backwoods amusement park into a viable business, with the aid of his willing friends -that is until a headless horseman appears to cause havoc in the commune.The acting is rank amateurish with only B.G. Fisher as the scar-faced old salt Soloman attempting to act, his mysterious ramblings and incantations warning of the imminent danger. Most of the cast looks like an amateur theatre company, excepting Marland Proctor, truly awful as the medical student Mark, while Andy Warhol's one- time muse Ultra Violet has a frivolous, marquee cameo as an eccentric French tourist. Lots of blood splattering but little actual violence, a mind-warping acid trip and some pop gun stunts set against a dreary folk song soundtrack offer little respite from the abomination. The concluding voice over promises that the curse will begin again (incessantly) to which I could only plead for mercy that the 75 minutes were up. Make no mistake, this is a howler but if it's your mission in life to experience it all, then I'm afraid you will need to see this dross.

HumanoidOfFlesh Mark Callahan inherits a cowboy ghost town from his uncle.He takes his fiancée Brenda and a group of hippie friends there,but it seems that a legendary Headless Horseman is prowling the area and scaring people to death..."Curse of the Headless Horseman" by Leonard Kirtman is even worse than his earlier horror schlock "Carnival of Blood".The story is boring,the acting is amateurish and there is almost no blood.Still "Curse of the Headless Horseman" offers some jaw-droppingly psychedelic moments for the lovers of low-budget trash.The faking of headless horseman is priceless.4 decapitated heads out of 10.A chore to sit through.

cpetr13 I love bad movies. This is not a bad movie; it is a non-movie. From the amazingly florid narration to the actual inability of the performers to act their say out of open bags--or a completely-open set, this movie never fails to disappoint, except when it annoys. The guy inherits a tourist ranch, apparently some people die, and the end is a big question mark of unresolved issues and a narrator who evidently gets jacked on nitrous since he repeats the same line over and over--I counted 7 times before I stopped. And the music was awful for the "hippe era" or any other time in history.Don't bother to watch this movie unless you have a masochistic bent or you have serious psychotropic drugs.SPOILERS:What was the point of inviting all his friends to the ranch if he knew they would stand between him and the gold? Why was the one woman endlessly running and falling, running and falling, until she could place herself in front of the ambulance? Was there a curse or not?
