The Curse of Buckout Road Buckout Road, a quiet street located in Westchester County, New York, has gained a reputation as one of the most haunted places in America. Legends surrounding this road tell tales of eerie occurrences, supernatural beings, and a curse that has haunted the area for centuries. The curse is said to have its origins in the 1600s when a woman named Sarah Buckhout was accused of witchcraft and hanged on the spot where the road now stands. Legend has it that Sarah cursed the land before her death, vowing that anyone who lived or even ventured onto Buckout Road would be plagued by misfortune and tragedy. Over the years, numerous strange incidents have been reported by those who have encountered the road. Mysterious figures are said to appear, disappearing into thin air before anyone can approach them.
REVIEW: In the opening scenes from the independent horror flick THE CURSE OF BUCKOUT ROAD (WATCH IT HERE), a teacher is speaking to her class as they discuss the balance between faith and fact. While this is happening, this same teacher (Mayko Nguyen) has a strange encounter with her husband during the night. The two scenes are edited together in such a way that it’s slightly off putting, but as the film plays on, the transition begins to make more sense. This is the fictional story of a true life, reportedly cursed road that runs through Westchester County in While Plains/West Harrison, New York. It’s also very much a love letter from writer/director Matthew Currie Holmes to all things genre – the script is co-written by Holmes and Shahin Chandrasoma – and if you have that adoration of spooky flicks as well, you’ll likely have a good time with this. So let’s take the wheel and head on over to Buckout Road.
From a ghostly woman wandering the woods, to a murder suicide of an abusive husband and his pregnant wife, the urban legends that are explored here help give this chiller a unique style albeit one that took time to grow on me as the film s secrets were revealed. The death sends reverberations throughout her class, particularly with Detective Harris s daughter Cleo Dominique Provost-Chalkley , and Cleo s two bumbling friends, brothers Derek Jim Watson and Erik Kyle Mac , all of whom had recently finished a class project mocking the legends surrounding Buckout Road.
Mysterious figures are said to appear, disappearing into thin air before anyone can approach them. Unexplained lights and orbs have been witnessed floating through the dense woods that line the street. People have claimed to hear whispers and echoing laughter, even when no one else is around.

Reviews for "Exploring the Otherworldly Energies of Buckout Road"
1. John - 1 out of 5 stars - This movie was an absolute disaster. The plot was full of holes and the characters were completely unlikable. The suspense that was supposed to be built up was non-existent, and I found myself checking my phone multiple times throughout the film. I wouldn't recommend wasting your time on this one, it's just not worth it.
2. Sarah - 2 out of 5 stars - I had high hopes for "The Curse of Buckout Rad" based on the trailer, but unfortunately, it didn't live up to my expectations. The story was confusing and lacked depth, and the acting felt forced and unnatural. The scares were predictable and failed to create any real sense of fear. Overall, it fell flat and left me disappointed.
3. Michael - 2 out of 5 stars - As a fan of horror movies, I was excited to see "The Curse of Buckout Rad". However, the film failed to deliver on any level. The concept was promising, but the execution was poor. The pacing was slow, and the scares were cheap and overused. The characters were underdeveloped, and I couldn't connect with any of them. Overall, it was a forgettable and mediocre horror film.
