Blood Ranch

I almost spit-out my popcorn. It began with a very loose and care-free feel to it, then suddenly, the convenient store clerk and other people in the started acting morose and dreadful. The little girl sitting outside of the store was so cute, but monotone. I'm guessing she was the executive producers daughter or family friend. the other actors were entertaining and believable. the story overall was fun and scary.

If you want to have good entertaining fun, rent this funny- scary movie. This movie actually reminds me of a parody of scary movie.

The one thing I think you will enjoy is that the young ladies are all cute and sexy and pretty good actresses.

It takes a while to get going, but once you get to the Blood Ranch it's sort of a homage to Texas Chainsaw Massacre with more than a little touch of Bloodsucking Freaks thrown in for good measure. Sure it's degenerate, but at least creatively so, a non stop parade of demented and oddly funny torture scenes that at the very least boast some imagination--no sense ultimately but it all has a loopy nutty quality. Blood Ranch seems like it will never end, which is a good and bad thing, it's pretty high-powered oddness. Vernon Wells has only one scene, but it's a long good scene and actually from that moment on the rest of the movie works.

The ending leaves a bunch of things hanging that don't have to be left that way and as I said the start is pretty slow going--though there is a decent car chase and some nice cold desert photography/videography.

Much more original in total than the dull ultimately useless The Hills Have Eyes remake.

I have several daughters that are in high school now (a Senior and two Sophmores, twins).

They had a PJ Party and approximately, about a dozen girlfriends came for the weekend, so as to celebrate my daughters birthdays, just prior to school beginning. A pseudo "Last Hurrah," prior to the grind. They came home with 6 horror films from Blockbuster and began watching them. Well, on Saturday morning as I was cleaning house, I hear this familiar tone of voice and laughter coming from the stereo speakers.

As I entered the den, I looked at the screen and immediately began laughing hysterically. My eldest paused the movie and questioned my surprise outburst. I responded, that's Jimmy Fitzpatrick, one of my college boyfriends, when I attended Illinois State in the 70's.

It wasn't a great movie, but it was fun to watch Jimmy play such a crazy character. Congratulations Jimmy, you have a dozen new-young fans...and one older one obviously. Jimmy was a very nice boy back then, and a very passionate kisser.

I attend University in Windsor. One of our many fun activities we participate together in on our floor, in the females dorms, is to watch horror flicks together in our jammies.

There is about 35 to 40 of us that attend each movie night and this one was extra special. We had a dress-up night for the flick, so everyone wore sexy nighties and jams. Yet, what was the most fun thing we did to the ladies was, a friend of mine watched the flick prior to the show, then dressed up like the man with gray hair and red leopard print jams, and jumped out yelling and screaming with an aluminum machete'. The looks on the ladies faces were incredibly priceless. They were yelling and screaming as though they were six years old. Sincere thanks to the writer, director and actors. We thoroughly enjoyed this crazy flick.

Yet another DVD box that promised all sorts of depravity and ended up not even showing a breast.

More silly kids end up out in the desert. They stumble into this compound of a bunch of sheds and huts wherein roam several mental defectives who are led by a guy called Spider. While all kinds of brutality and mayhem is promised on the box,other than a woman getting her arm hacked off not much depravity is shown.

Special effects are minimal. The acting is horrible. The script is worse. More homemade crap from Xenon.Anyone with a video camera and some red colored corn syrup could make something like this. That doesn't mean they should.
