Jamie Blanks Has Passed Away: Australian Director Of ‘Urban Legend’ Was 54

Quite sad about this one. Urban Legend was such a formative movie for me in my teen years and it’s been fun seeing its reputation change and grow from a Scream ripoff into a cult slasher. You can really tell when watching it that he was a massive fan of the horror genre, and he got everyone on board with his vision. Some iconic 90s horror scenes in it!
