Tales from the Crypt: Four-Sided Triangle (1990)
Season 2, Episode 9
The Scarecrow is Alive...
31 August 2011
...or is he? Fugitive Patricia Arquette is stuck on a farm, blackmailed into working by the grumpy, perverted farmer and his wife. But after suffering a blow to the head, the girl begins to fantasize about the field's scarecrow coming to life. Sound's strange, doesn't it? This episode is neither interesting enough nor horrific enough to stand on it's own, making it among season two's worst offerings. It plays like a dull thriller instead of a tongue-in-cheek horror short. But, can't win 'em all, can we? At least Patricia looks lovely and the scarecrow sequences are just surreal enough to be entertaining. It's too bad it falls apart in the end, where it counts.
