Cypress Creek

Or, how NOT to make a horror movie. I guess part 2 is a sequel in name only ... Wait, Lake Fear One is called Cypress Creek here?! Now I'm really baffled.

Absolutely zero semblance of a plot. Four girls go to a cabin. Complete and utter nonsense transpires. This was categorized as a comedy(!) on imdb, which made me curious. For a good laugh, read the synopsis on the back of the DVD box after viewing. It is 100% fictitious. Lake Fear is easily the cheapest, most ineffective Evil Dead knockoff I've ever seen. You can keep a checklist as you watch: "Stuff ripped off from Evil Dead." I counted one cool shot, and it involved fireworks(!) in the special effects budget. Plenty of girls covered in blood, so I guess it's not a total loss.

I usually don't write reviews, but I had to make an exception for this one. The entire movie plot was basically non existent nothing made sense, at some point random events just started happening mixed with "special" effects and annoying sounds (very "special" since they were beyond terrible and will give you a headache) there was never any explanation as to why anything was happening let alone who the "creatures" were that were shown. For a great part it seems like they tried to recreate The Ring, at which they failed miserably. The acting was below average and not convincing in the least. I can't believe this was ever actually released. Awful, Just awful!! And how this movie got a rating of 6.8 will remain a mystery for me.

TLDR: It's a right piece of sh*t is what it is..

Have you ever sat down to watch a movie, with nothing more expected than that it would at least kill an hour and a half of boredom.

But then, twenty minutes into it, you think to yourself that you'll probably be better off inspecting your feet for toe jam?

The camera-work, effects and lighting is extremely sh*t. The sound and music is f*c*ing awful. The acting is sub sh*tty. The story is beyond cr*ppy..The cover and title is the best part...

If you want to do your feet a favor, this movie will definitely help you make that happen. As for me, i quit watching the piece of sh*t after 40 minutes. Time is just too precious..

The DVD art of this film and the 2012 film From Beneath (a.k.a. Lake Fear) is utterly confusing. Trying to differentiate between the two is nuts. Both titles have alternate names, but two totally different directors, stories and casts.

Aside from the films themselves, it is hard to figure out which one you may be watching. Apparently, the correct poster for the 2014 Lake Fear is a lake house with the title in red lettering. The alternate title to this version is 'Cypress Creek'.

I never write any review for any movie, but if this helps someone to watch it please be my guest. Worst acting ever. What a waste or budget
