Review of Urban Legend

Urban Legend (1998)
6/10
'Urban Legend'
23 April 2004
After the tremendous success of 'Scream', it waa inevitable that plenty of 'Scream' clones would follow. Most notably 'I Know What You Did Last Summer' and this movie.

'Urban Legend' has clone written all over it, as almost everything in the movie has been borrowed from other slasher movies. Take the plot, for instance, the movie wants to pass itself as being about a killer on campus that crafts murders according to the most known urban legends. But, the thing is that by the end of the movie, we find that the plot is a simple rehash of 'I Know What You Did Last Summer'. It really has nothing to do with urban legends. Even the killer's costume reeks of deja-vu. However, despite its recycled plot and thrills, 'Legend' can still keep you distracted for a while.
