The Lady of the Lake: The Legend of Lake Ronkonkoma

I personally love the scenery of where the town and the lake itself are filmed. It brings back feelings of nostalgia for small town life and I really love that. I also can tell the younger actors have a good deal of passion for their work. I am a huge fan of Seth Gilliam. He and Julie Dove are my favorite actors in this film. My only critique is I wish the movie had been a little more frightening or even more thrilling but that's just a personal preference. Other than that I thought it very interesting. Especially if you enjoy stories of local legends and folklore. Also the camerawork was excellent.

This film is a beautifully captured, and truly mesmerizing story. I truly appreciate the authentic, yet suspenseful story told throughout the entire film - from the story, to the lighting, framing, and idyllic camera work. Many moments made me feel like I was one with the characters, trapped in their moments of suspense, sitting in their guilt with them, or even enjoying a view of the lake, as if I were there too. Capp's direction, Schneider's cinematography, and each actor's performance make this a well-worth watch. If you are looking for a well-written, and pleasantly surprising film, watch The Lady of the Lake!

As a local, I was curious to watch this movie. I should've stayed curious. I really wanted to like this, I was rooting for it. But wow....

HOW did Seth Gilliam agree to do this??? I'm actually stumped. He's not an unknown actor with no credits.

I've been in pretty bad movies myself as a local actor, but this is by far the worst movie I've ever seen. I've seen high school projects that are better than this. Between the acting, the dialogue, the writing, the music... it's all so unnatural and so cheesy, so bad, that it feels awkward to even watch. I'm actually embarrassed for them.

I will say- there are a couple scenes that aren't as bad, and some interesting camerawork, but overall it's just not good. E for Effort?

The Lady of the Lake is a haunting, beautifully shot film that brings the legend of Lake Ronkonkoma to life in an unforgettable way. Even without prior knowledge of the tale, I was completely drawn in by the emotional depth, especially through Seth Gilliam's powerful performance. The cinematography, dreamlike sequences, and authentic locations add a surreal beauty. This film is both a chilling ghost story and a moving exploration of grief and legend. Highly recommended.

As someone who grew up there, and spent my teenage years partying at the lake, eating at the deli and partying at Parsnip I know a thing or 2 about the Legend of the lake. Some of what they stated was true, however, no one has died in years. Rumor is that it is bottomless. People stopped going in it many years ago. Okay- about the movie, it is boring and focuses more like a coming of-age and going away to college movie. Def. Not scary and pointless. They could've done so much more with the material. If they wanted to make a teenage movie, they could've done better. There were so many other things they could've focused on and it was just boring imo.
