Dark Night of the Scarecrow
Starring: Charles Durning, Larry Drake, Robert F. Lyons, 
Claude Earl Jones, Lane Smith, Tonya Crowe
Directed by: Frank De Felitta
Initial release: 24 October 1981
Year: 1981 | Duration: 92 mins

In a small town, a wrongfully killed man exacts revenge on those who murdered him from beyond the grave.

Directed by veteran novelist Frank De Felitta (author of Audrey Rose) from a script by J.D. Feigelson. Feigelson's intent had been to make an independent feature, but his script was bought by CBS for television; despite this, only minor changes were made to the original screenplay.

"With its 1981 release "Dark Night of the Scarecrow" was the first feature-length horror film with a scarecrow as its centerpiece. In the intervening years many have copied this image, but with "Dark Night of the Scarecrow" writer J.D. Feigelson is credited as creator of the entire "Killer Scarecrow" horror film sub-genre." - Aaron Crowell, Managing Editor, HorrorHound Magazine

"Dark Night of the Scarecrow" premiered on CBS on October 24, 1981 and was re-released on 29 April 2010 as part of the Texas Frightmare Weekend 2010.
