Awful. Lazy. Incompetent. Failure. Horrendous. Insulting. Lackadaisical. Guano. Excrement. Depressing. Talentless. Baffling. Draining. Lousy. Anti-life. Joyless. Avoid. Hopeless. Unprofessional. Worthless. I'd-almost-rather-watch-Uwe-Boll-filmography-kind-of-film.In a word, bad!Skeleton Man is what happens when you give money to people that have no idea how films, or even more broadly, stories function. It has absolutely no creativity, talent or skill behind it. And what's even worse, it's not even that funny in its incompetence. Often you can at least laugh at how utterly the film fails, but in this case you just simply sit there, bored out of your skull, asking the question: "Why?"Where to even begin. First of all, the props. The villain, supposedly an undead Indian warrior spirit, who actually looks more like a fourteen-year-old fanboy cosplaying as Skeletor from He-Man. Seriously, I could buy a more convincing skull mask from any carnival store in existence. The same thing with the cape, which is so shiny, smooth and plasticy that you could use it as a mirror. Made even more baffling by the fact that in about half of the scenes they use a far superior cape. Did they simply decide not to re-shoot the scenes with the hilariously wrong cape after the right one had arrived?Secondly, the actors and the characters are some of the worst I've ever seen. They're either needlessly pampering to the male demographic, utterly avoid of any personality or usually both. Worst is the villain, who has no presence, character or even really backstory. I've seen kittens covered in soap bubbles that are more frightening than he is.This film should not exist. It is an insult to every other film, nay, every other story in existence. Please, do the world a favour and burn any copy you come across.

Skeleton man? What a lame excuse for wasting one's time. Ed Wood Jr. could have come up with a better tale. Made for the lame Psi-Phi cable Channel. I remember the superior SCI-FI Channel, which showed better things in it's day. They wouldn't have even approved this garbage.Even I can come up with a better story and use almost the same character. The whole character looks wrong.. Cottonmouth Joe,(the skeleton man),is suppose to be a native American. Imagine a skeleton with long black hair wearing buckskin. What we get is a stunt man dressed up in a low end, over-sized,GRIM REAPER costume. Spoilers?.. We then get a bunch of barely known to unknown actors fighting Skeletor in the Woods. There is nothing to spoil. This movie looks and feels like a tax write off. The only good thing that came from this title: "Skeleton Man", was 2013 Axis of Awesome's silly song about a lame hero called: Skeleton-Man and his enemy Skin-man.

In an unspecified wilderness of the American West, the spirit of an Indian goes hunting for humans. Years before he wiped out in a fit of madness and its trunk is now back to demand more of life. After two archaeologists and a team of military his sword (!) Have fallen victim to be an undercover team of Special Forces, led by Captain Leary (Michael Rooker) and Staff Sgt Oberron (Casper Van Dien) charged with the murder to put an end to ...It is completely funny film. Don't take it seriously. Never take such a film seriously... I mean come on, even the title is ridiculous. I mean sure if you are one of those people who don't see the point in B-type horror or other films like this then this is not for you. Can't blame you... but even if America has brought us shitty wars, then this is their better side the not so serious. I mean what are the actors thinking? How can they do their roles in such seriousness when the Skeleton Man enters... I sure couldn't could you?

Ill be honest. I bought this movie because it was part of a 4 Films Horror Collector's Set for $5 at Walmart. I got past the intro to the movie and realized why I only paid $1.25 for it. This movie is so bad its hilarious! I mean really, what is not to love about a poorly dressed skeleton man running along, shooting his bow and arrows at Helicopters and causing them to crash and explode. This movie has a horrible plot. I fast forwarded past all the boring parts and got to the killings.Reasons the movie is great: 1. Skeleton Man has an arsenal of weapons at his disposal to include: Throwing knives, axes, a long sword, bow and arrow and a spear. Skeleton Man is so great that he can conjure these weapons magically. Imagine him walking towards with nothing in his hands and then BOOM an axe.2. Skeleton Man can divert all bullets by getting on his horse and doing circles. In the movie the special forces team have their guns with unlimited ammo and try to shoot him, but in the end the all miss because Skeleton Man deflected all of them.3. He rides a horse. Not just ANY horse. A brown majestic horse that looked like it was stolen from a farm. Its awesome because he is trying to give demons and their kind a better reputation. Black horses show that they have no taste but a brown horse really says something about that demon's character.4. If Skeleton Man wants something that your standing in front of, he will punch a hole in your stomach, grab the object in question, and pull it through you. Sheer awesomeness.5. Skeleton Man can bring a helicopter down to its knees just by shooting a piece of wood at it. Professional! What other demon do you know of that can take down a copter with a twig? NONE I SAY! This is a movie is perfect for stoners and people who like to laugh at retarded movies.6/10 Because its just so damn funny.
