Haunted Trail

Never seen a more stupid movie in my entire life. The movie is just as bad as the song at the end. Doesn't make any sense. Why don't you go hide behind the chainsaws ??? Avoid at all cost.

Some friends go to a haunted walkthrough and get attacked by what a revamped Myers kind of character...that might be black. But it's a cheap cheesy flick.

Not worth the watch. Only going to laugh at Desi a few times that's all. I thought as a black horror movie the decisions would be better and this movie is the complete opposite.

The opening actually gave me high hopes for this movie, then as soon as the credits were finished it immediately went to crap. Using the "scares" of the haunted house/trail within the movie for most of the horror elements doesn't make a good horror movie. It's actually frustrating as a viewer to just be watching the characters react to scares that we don't get to enjoy as even mild startles ourselves. The constant babbling and shrieking of the characters doesn't amount to decipherable or meaningful dialogue that moves a story forward in any way. Outside of the chaotic filming of disjointed house-of-horrors scenes, attempts at a storyline are pathetic. Some of these actors should never appear in front of a camera again, the skill level is that poor. And I don't even think there were writers. It's just so painful, in the worst possible way.

This doesn't even work as a parody or satire. It's just bad all the way around, and yet... And yet, it got funded. AI could write a better script. The acting was subpar. There were some odd acting choices with all the actors, but especially with Desi Banks. The pacing was too loose and scenes that did nothing for the story lingered. Some of the camera shots were questionable, but overall, the biggest problem this movie had was a bad story. There was hardly any story there. The whole thing hinged on a lame jealousy premise, so lame that you don't learn about it until you get a lot of bad exposition at the end!

It's too bad. I wanted to like Robin Givens as a director. There are too few black female directors out there, but based on this film, it looks like she's not ready for the other side of the camera. Try again with better material.
