Review – Banshee!!!
For the most part this is yet another low-budget tale of young folk unwisely straying into the woods, where they become chow for a youngster-chomping, CGI gargoyle. However, this picture went an extra couple of yards to earn a spot in the “total garbage” category. For starters, the monster kills a dog in the first ten minutes, which automatically required the movie to do something to redeem itself (which of course it never did). But worse was the squandering of the “banshee” thing. A banshee that followed the actual folk legends would have been one of the cooler denizens of the ghost pantheon. This thing didn’t even vaguely merit the title. And seriously guys, all those exclamation points? Is this a tale from a bad horror comic from the 1970s? Again, no. Even those were better than this mess. Wish I’d skipped it
