Aka Murderous Scarecrow
The movie opens with a sketchy couple and a ouija board. They hear a noise outside which the guy says is Amish kids having a campfire in the fields. He’s going to scare them with a gun, which is the stuff tragic accidents are made of and boom! There’s a scarecrow in the room. So the ouija summoned a scarecrow? I still have no idea who these people were or what it had to do with the rest of the movie.
Small town librarian Winnie calls her sister Zoe daily. Zoe seems to hate everyone. Each phone call she gets make her irritated, and her only friend is the drawings she does of public domain cartoon Fantomah which talk to her. Winnie’s dad runs the local club that books bands. Dad wears a doo rag and oversized clothing, which is unfortunate.
When a woman donates books to the library, Winnie finds a journal mixed in with them. It’s the diary of a teenager named Joey who committed suicide years ago. When she asks her Dad if he knew the kid, he pleads ignorance but convinces her to leave the diary with him. Later he burns it and calls the other members of the basketball team to tell them about the journal.
Shortly after this a scarecrow starts killing people who knew Joey in high school. Is it Joey back from the dead? If so, why is he a scarecrow? And since the journal was burned, why does it appear at each death scene prior to the killings? Also what sort of sheriff tells the librarian about two deaths that aren’t public knowledge yet?
The scarecrow was you. And it wasn’t just you, it was everybody.

| Who is this? Is this Joey? It’s never explained. |

| Why do scarecrows wear pointy dunce hats? |

| No Dad, you’re too old for a bandana |

| Small town Main Street is kind of cool |
