Lake Noir

Not the best and not the worst but worth a watch not anything extraordinary

I've seen a ton of indy horror flicks and this one ranks pretty low. You don't expect much out of most low budget films, but there is just no tension in this movie. There is seriously nothing happening for the first hour and ten minutes of this hour and a half film. No one dies, the "creature" (for lack of a better word) doesn't show up, nothing. Just a bunch of people talking about... well, nothing. It's as if you spied on a group of campers and listened in on their conversation for an hour or so. It goes nowhere. Just a bunch of talk about sex, food and booze. I can't imagine that there was an actual script because the dialog sounded made up and didn't even push the story along or help you understand anything beyond the surface of the cliched characters. There are so many plot holes and questions that make you wonder why the filmmakers never even tried to address any them. For example, why does a virgin girl clearly in her thirties need her mother's permission to go to the lake with her forty year old boyfriend? Why is this "creature" just killing random people, what's his motive? Why is everybody so cryptic and avoid just coming out and telling people why they shouldn't go to the lake, even when they're asked a direct question? And lastly, why are there multiple close up shots of the generic beers they're drinking? This was a film that might have been good if it was cut down to a 10-15 minute short. There's just not enough story or character development for a feature. A few boob shots and ten minutes of killing at the end isn't worth the hour and a half running time.

a good film that does leave me feeling a little short but a good film to sit at home and take it for what it is. I felt as if it were a low budget film I would not give give a film like this a 10 if it were a studio picture but for low budget indie it had the nudity,and awesome monster makeup I have seen studio films that did not have as good a look as this it had all the elements even if they did not work perfectly definitely worth a rental. I have done shorts and films over the years so I understand the effort that goes into just getting a film made. most critics have never made a film let alone a short so I do get a little annoyed with hypercritical people but when you make a film thats what you sign up for. hope you guys keep making films , next time I will expect more though ;)

What can I say about this film? It has 5 hot chicks 3 of which show their nice milkers, the monster looks really good, Its shot in a good scary location and the hillbillies look authentic. Other than that, Its a Super low budget film that runs a little slow, no real character development and pretty simple plot but if you are watching a low budget horror film for anything more than that then you my friend haven't been watching low budget horror films. For what this film is I give it a 10 it met my expectations and it was fun to watch while I was drinking beers with my friends, but mostly the part I like best about this film is that I'm in it and I want people to buy as many copies as possible and rent it as many times so I can go out and buy stuff and for that added reason I will tell everyone I meet its a good film.

Throwback to a 1970's horror film I liked the camera work and the make up FX the story was fine for a Indie low budget. It drug a bit in the middle but thought the production value was good. it's no saving private ryan that being said some of the negative reviews seemed a bit heavy handed but I am sure they have produced films and know how easy it is :P.

I hope these guys don't get discouraged by the douchebag reviews keep it up the more you do this the better you will get. Trust me I've done this for over 20 yrs I am not going to say it gets any easier, but you do learn things along the way.
