DVD Review: Adam Green Misses Mark With Ugly ‘Hatchet II’

Hatchet 2

CHICAGO – There are many who would like horror fans to believe that writer/director Adam Green is the nest great voice in the genre, the guy who we should all be watching.

Blu-Ray Review: Adam Green’s ‘Frozen’ Might Leave You Cold

Frozen

Adam Green is arguably the biggest name in horror right now with “Hatchet II” opening in theaters this month and both “Hatchet” and “Frozen” released on Blu-ray in the last few weeks.

CHICAGO – Is Adam Green the next great horror director?

Watching Green’s breakthrough film, now available on Blu-ray, it’s easy to see what people adore about Green and what he still needs to work on.
