Hatchet (2006): "Misogynalgic vs. Nostalgynistic"

Spookies, how did we let 20 years go by without ever watching Hatchet (2006)? Thankfully, Swamp Ass August is here to set us straight, so we're finishing off our accidental New Orleans Three Weeks with the first flick in Victor Crowley's slasher franchise. Starring some familiar faces — like squintern Colin Fisher from Bones, Tyson from Scream 3, and Harmony from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, not to mention all those incredible horror cameos — this movie pays homage to some of the legendary series that came before it. It also features that iconic nostalgic misogyny we've come to associate with the era, prompting us to invent new portmanteaus, but we're leaving it up to you to pick your favorite on a new Spooky Tuesday. References: https://timewarriors.co.uk/2024/04/15/hatchet-a-multilayered-masterpiece/ https://research.library.fordham.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1007&context=honorsprogram_fcrh_theses https://pophorror.com/stay-out-of-this-swamp-hatchet-2006-revisited-retro-review/
