Death Mask (1998)




James Best, best known for his role in the TV show "Dukes of Hazzard." stars as a facially scarred circus worker who carves masks. Everyone puts him down except Linnea Quigley. He sees a swamp witch who curses him with making a mask that causes everyone who sees it to commit suicide and he can't take it off. The expected mayhem ensues. Directed by the same guy who did Jack-O, this tries to be a serious horror film, but has some serious flaws, both technical - an empty ride has people screaming on it - and budgetary - everyone talks about how beautiful the mask is, when you could make a better one yourself. It's interesting despite itself, not good, but watchable.
