Networks would be regrouping for the fall programming resurgence while conceding to the power of the movie blockbuster. With the sun high overhead, people would flock to pools and beaches and other places to cool off. Then again, what do I know? I'm only a child.Imagine, if you will, a time not too long ago when the heart of summer was a pause in the TV calendar. Apparently they deleted material that was needed to clarify the effects of the spider bites that the victims did not die but rather went into comas until the anecdote was discovered and administered is unclear. The sequencing keeps things active and interesting. The direction and editing is very strong. Meesier is also solid and Frank Peretti himself makes an amusing appearance as an eccentrically jolly scientist. It is a great acting for the camera performance and the director showcases this with frequent tight shots on her face. She is totally convincing in the film's most difficult role. The performance of Andrea Morris (Crystal) is the best thing about "Hangman's Curse". Crystal and Ian, the two main "goth" kids are supposed to be outcasts, but they are the most physically attractive students in the whole school. The jocks are anything but physically imposing, the main bully would do better cast as a fat nerd and has no business in a speaking role. The cast is mostly unexceptional and in many cases the physical casting is way off. Hard-core horror fans will find this fairly tame although the premise is clever and there are some nice suspenseful moments. If your own faith does not run toward elitist religious egoism you will find almost nothing objectionable. There has also been some objection to the wardrobe of Leighton Meesier (the actress who poses as a student to investigate the situation) although it looked pretty wholesome to me Meesier's actual sin is just being radiantly beautiful. Extremist "Christians" are upset because the "Christians" in the film seem to be just like "regular" (their word-not mine) people. The Beautiful World of Ugly Betty Narrator / Wilhelmina Slater (2007). Pearls suggest chastity, modesty and stable marriage relationships. Billy Slater’s birthstone is Pearl, Moonstone and Alexandrite. The compromises they made to mainstream this film have offended both extremist "Christians" and hard core horror film fans, which is not exactly a surprise. Billy Slater was born in the middle of Millennials Generation. But this is inserted in such a clumsy and contrived way that few will feel any threat of manipulation.
Some may view the film's ending message as anti-diversity, although it positively portrays interracial dating it ends with a conformist message. The agenda does have a dark side, a simplistic message that being different and asserting your individuality is a misguided response to facing life's challenges without the assist of inner spirituality. There is an obvious agenda but it does not overwhelm the story mostly they wanted to present a positive message for Christian kids in an uncharacteristically "cool" package and to show that being Christian does not mean a kid has to be a total dork. But the religious aspects of the book are soft peddled in favor of elements intended to make it appeal to a wider audience interested in a traditional mild horror film.
"Hangman's Curse" is an adaptation of a book by a "Christian" author (Frank Peretti), published by a "Christian" publisher, and promoted by "Christian" bookstores.
