Urban Legend is a 1998 horror-thriller movie directed by Jamie Blanks. The story takes place on a college campus where a series of murders start occurring, all of them based on popular urban legends. The students start to become paranoid and scared as they try to figure out who the killer is before becoming the next victim.
Natalie (Alicia Witt), Paul (Jared Leto), and Brenda (Rebecca Gayheart) are students who find themselves in the middle of the terror. They start to suspect each other and their teachers until they uncover the killer's true identity.
The movie features a star-studded cast, including Robert Englund (Freddy Krueger), Tara Reid, and Joshua Jackson. The suspenseful storytelling and practical effects of the film are reminiscent of classic horror films from the 80s and 90s.
Urban Legend was a commercial success, grossing over $70 million worldwide. It spawned two sequels, Urban Legends: Final Cut in 2000 and Urban Legends: Bloody Mary in 2005. The film also had a significant impact on pop culture, inspiring a wave of urban legend-based horror movies in the late 90s and early 2000s.
