Urban Legend followed the success of Scream and the movie is a fun horror ride as well. The actors
are well cast, there are decent scares and a clever plot. The movie was made for horror fans and nothing
in the movie feels hokey or copied.

Another favorite of mine. I've watched this movie so many times that my VHS tape barely works any more. A killer is killing people by way of urban legends, brilliant! Lol

No sé por qué esta película tiene críticas tan negativas. El film es bastante entretenido y es muy similar a Scream o Cherry Falls, se me hizo bastante divertido.

El film es bastante entretenido y es muy similar a Scream o Cherry Falls, se me hizo bastante divertido. Si sos fan del género del slasher y el terror, te conviene verla. El comienzo ya con ese plot-twist es increíble, una escena excelente. La ambientación bien de los 90' en la universidad está muy bien lograda y las actuaciones también, a pesar del humor básico y horrendo que tiene, los personajes son bien carismáticos. Las escenas de suspenso también están bien ejecutadas, es una película que avanza bastante rápido y se pasa volando. Me encantó el simple hecho de que el asesino se base en asesinar por medio de las leyendas urbanas, reconocí un par en el film. Básicamente, en pocas palabras, es entretenida y hay actuaciones notables y un gran reparto (Jared Leto, Robert Englund, Rebecca Gayheart), un clásico de los 90' bastante infravalorado que ningún fan del género del terror/slasher puede perderse.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Urban Legend is very clever with its original death scenes. The cast is terrific and they are all funny and engaging throughout the whole movie. Robert Englund is even in this movie as a college professor !
Jared Leto and Tara Reid give strong supporting performances. I'm an avid horror movie buff and
this is of my favourites. If you dig horror movies, Urban Legend is sure to delight you.

Kids at University start getting bumped off, killings are like "Urban Legends", kids investigate, it would have worked if it hadn't been for you meddling kids.
Live action Scooby Doo episode but the cartoon had better story lines. Usual
Kids at University start getting bumped off, killings are like "Urban Legends", kids investigate, it would have worked if it hadn't been for you meddling kids.
Live action Scooby Doo episode but the cartoon had better story lines. Usual cliched teen horror that came out after Scream in the late 90s that doesn't offer anything new or original.
Saying that, I did get the killer wrong.

It's not the most entertaining or original film but with a solid cast, It's at least watchable but it does seem to drag a little bit with the near 2 hours run time.

The acting was average at best, the movie was completely unbelievable, the kills lacked in both gore and creativity and ultimately, the movie feels just like a lame attempt to cash in the popular slasher genre.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A series of murders take place at college based on urban legends, a subject conveniently being covered by one of the professors, and our main girl is struggling with her role in a car accident that resulted in a guy dying but it turns out the murders are obviously committed by her friend who was the girlfriend of that guy.
