Reviews & Press

Arrow in the Head News Review: "The Scar Crow feels like a much bigger movie than its £100,000 ($150,000) budget would suggest. The script is tight and gives the actors plenty of opportunity to shine"
MJ Simpson Review: "a commendable, enjoyably scary horror flick" "The cast are good, the effects are well-done and used effectively, the production values are impressive for a low-ish budgeted indie." "B+"
