How it feels

A group of teenagers is terrorized by a supernatural scarecrow that comes to life and kills them one by one. The movie has intentionally bad performances and a ridiculous story that some viewers find entertaining.

What happens

It has been described as a B movie and stars scream queen Tiffany Shepis and Tim Young among others, including director and cofounder of Oingo Boingo Richard Elfman. The film is described as "so bad it's good", due to its poor acting, writing, and overall story. Scarecrow was coupled with the second film as Scarecrow/Scarecrow Slayer on 28 December 2004.
