SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

Helllins It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

trashgang This must be the episode with the most mixed emotions. For some the question is how it was possible to add a famous person into such a story. But hey, we are at this writing 6 years later and just look what happened, Abraham Lincoln was in trouble with vampires, and in another flick he had to fight zombies. Snow White came in trouble with monsters and I can go on and on.Seeing it now I rather enjoyed it but it wasn't one of the best episodes. The reason lays in the fact that the Washingtonians looked a bit ridiculous. The story itself was, again, rather simple. A man finds a letter behind a painting of George with supposedly was written by George stating that he was a cannibal. Once people from the town the man and his family just moved in do know he got the letter in comes the Washingtonians to get back the letter so history remains the same. But I had a few laughters here and there, when at the diner suddenly the family are looking at the people surrounding them eating spare ribs, but it looked like they were all eating people. And when they are talking to the 10 year old daughter they also looked like she was eatable. And the end surely delivers an inside joke with the new dollar bill.Maybe if I had seen it in 2007 I would have hate it too but nowadays things are changed and it was okay but not above average due the silly looks of the Washingtonians. They just looked so cheap.Gore 0/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 1/5 Story 2,5/5 Comedy 1/5

wyldefyre28 this was awful. just awful. i probably am of that mind because i actually READ the short story this is based on. i adore Bentley Little and his ability to take the mundane and terrify you with it.the premise is awesome. but the acting was horrible, and the added stuff took away from the story.though i DID quite enjoy the bit about "tastes like chicken". that was about the only redeeming thing in my opinion.none of the acting was believable.at all.sorry, it just wasn't.maybe i'm expecting too much from a TV series, but i was so disappointed by what i saw.

Coventry The value of Peter Medak's master degree in horror is debatable, since he only just directed one terrific classic in the genre ("The Changeling") and one inferior but fun & gory sequel ("Species II"), but he nevertheless delivered a worthwhile addition to the series' second season. "The Washingtonians" has an original premise and a fairly large amount of suspenseful sequences, particularly during the first half hour when the outcome is still somewhat of a mystery. And unlike most other installments of this show, the concept has the courage to mildly provoke. The story revolves on George Washington being a bloodthirsty cannibal – even with a preference for the flesh of young children and virgins – and a small group of Virginian disciples are still practicing his murderous habits. Considering the first President of the United States is still (and always) seen as a genuine hero and founding father of the nation, "The Washingtonians" just might upset a handful of old-fashioned people here and there. Not too much, however, as the overall tone of the episode is as much blackly comical as it is creepy. In the basement of his recently deceased grandmother's house in Virginia, Mike Franks finds a note written by no other than George Washington himself. This could be a great historical discovery, wouldn't it be that the message is hugely disturbing and talks about the dismemberment & devouring of little children. When they hear about the note, the friendly old people in town promptly turn into hostile and menacing aggressors that won't hesitate to kill and eat Mike and his family in order to recover the note. "The Washingtonians" is adequately fast-paced and well directed. Highlight of the short film is unquestionably the scene in the local restaurant, where the elderly townsfolk outrageously & primitively munch large portions of red meat. Still, in a story revolving on cannibalism, I expected a bit more gore and slaughter. Johnathon Schaech is decent in the lead role, but the woman who played his wife Pam (the largely unknown Venus Terzo) impressed me a lot more. She's a talented beauty with a gorgeous rack. That might be an infantile and tasteless thing to say, but it's the truth.

causeiwantto2001 If there is one thing that freaks me out, even at the age of 28, it's southern old people! I felt shot back to being a small child, watching Poltergeist 2 with Jullian Beck and Zelda Rubeinstien. The lawyer is as close as I have come to feeling that creeped out, since the 80's. I got over Freddy, and Jason, still alittle fear when a Halloween sequel pops up, but to this day, the vision of Jullian Beck playing Kane still spooks me out, and I must do a scan of the room I am in! The Washingtonians seems to have that effect on me, and it really took me back to that time. The Masters of Horror series has some real gems, and this episode has left that impression on me.
