Hatchet is a 2006 American slasher film written and directed by Adam Green. The film has an ensemble cast, including Joel David Moore, Tamara Feldman, Deon Richmond, Mercedes McNab, Parry Shen, Joleigh Fioreavanti, Joel Murray, Richard Riehle, Patrika Darbo, Joshua Leonard, Tony Todd, Robert Englund, and Kane Hodder. The plot follows a group of tourists on a New Orleans haunted swamp tour, who accidentally get stranded in the wilderness, only to be hunted by a vengeful, supernatural deformed man who kills anyone that enters the swamp.
Hatchet premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival in April 27, 2006, before releasing in limited theaters domestically on September 7, 2007. It received mixed reviews from critics, but became a cult classic among audiences. The film's successes spawned a film series including three sequels. A comic book series followed thereafter.[1]
