Get Chopping With First HATCHET III Stills

Victor Crowley is back and his weapon of choice is all sharpened up and ready to go. Adam Green hands the reins of his Hatchet franchise to director BJ McDonnell for the third installment and a trio of stills has just arrived.

HATCHET 3 will continue the saga of Crowley, the "Bayou Butcher," who first made his gruesome mark in 2007's groundbreaking Hatchet. Adam Green's HATCHET 2 sequel became the first unrated independent horror film to be exhibited by a major chain (AMC Theatres) in more than 25 years when it opened.

The movie is written and executive produced by series creator Adam Green, who also directed the first two films in the series. Veteran camera operator BJ McDonnell (Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, Project X, Easy A, Hatchet 2) makes his directing debut on HATCHET 3.
 
HATCHET 2 stars Danielle Harris and Kane Hodder return in Hatchet 3, along with Derek Mears (Friday the 13th 2009), Caroline Williams (Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2), Sean Whalen (The People Under the Stairs) and others.
