SCARECROW - SYFY: NEW MOVIE SYNOPSIS - PREMIERES SATURDAY, OCTOBER 5, 2013 AT 9/8C
"
If I only had raw brain..."
For generations, it was an urban legend that lived in the nightmares of children. Now, the season to rejuvenate the tale will revive a town’s darkest fears.
With the Scarecrow Festival on the horizon, school teacher Aaron Harris (
Robin Dunne) is doling out punishment for six students serving detention, including the moody Tyler (
Richard Harmon), Goth girl Nikki (
Julia Maxwell), wrestling team captain Daevon (
Reilly Dolman), and straight-A student Maria (
Nicole Muñoz). Their task: help their friend Amanda's family farm with some grunt work before it’s sold. But the cornfields circling the farm come with a legend—and Tyler takes macabre delight in recounting the tale: It never sleeps, it never dies, it can’t be stopped, hear their cries.
The Scarecrow lives to kill us all. Keep it buried in the fall…
When the kids play a terrifying game of cat and mouse in the cornfield with what they believe is a wild animal, Amanda tries to convince them that the
Scarecrow is a very real creature of fierce strength and power, rejuvenated by the blood of its prey—and proof comes all too soon. As darkness falls over the rustling fields, the last survivors must fend off the flesh-ripping terrors of the
Scarecrow. For the terrified prisoners of Miller Farm, surviving the night seems a distant prayer.
As Autumn falls across the land, there’s a palpable chill in air that can freeze the blood.
Scarecrow is coming.
