Lake Eerie

Odd the film was getting panned and that in 3 days in November suddenly a batch of highly rated reviews suddenly appear isn't it.

Well unlike those fake reviews I have just seen this movie and have no connection to it whatsoever.

Don't watch it based on those reviews, its very very very poor. I only sat through it because Im off with a bug and nothing else to do.

Its a typical low budget affair, poor script, poor acting.

The fake reviewers would at least have some credibility if they awarded it reasonable scores, marking it 8 out of 10 and placing it up there with the classics really shows just how fake they are.

Bad acting. Bad writing. Bad directing. Bad. The biggest thing that struck me was how it appeared that the actors, director, writer/s seemed to never have interacted with other humans before. It's like aliens were trying to sneak an alien movie into the public and they thought "This is how humans act, right?".

I tuned out after the inexplicable lesbian ghost dream scene.

You could enjoy this movie by turning it into a drinking game. Within the first half hour the neighbor lady says dear about 30 times. That's what old Earth human people say, right? Take a shot every time she says this and you'll have a great time.

"You're the bravest person I know!"

the acting was not so great. Cheaply made movie, special effects were rather funny.

By the middle of the movie had to start fast forwarding as it felt boring and got annoying.

Many horror movies tend to have really silly moments, and it's usually something so simple, like why would you light a candle in order to look through the window? or would you be lighting a candle rather than holding the knife like crazy if you were really scared? By the time she actually did it you could travel to Mexico and back.

Overall not convincing at all.

Sad to see that a flick containing Lance Henriksen and Betsy Baker is total crap. i admit it, I was fooled by seeing their names taking me back to Aliens (1986) with Lance and The Evil Dead (1981) with Betsy.

This flick clocking in over 90 minutes is one big yawn. It's all about talking and nothing happening. It's only the last 10 minutes that the horror comes in and even that is ridiculous. Most of the horror is not shown or done off-camera. And don't watch it for your thespians, they are maybe 5 minutes in this crappy flick.

The poster looked promising, sadly the flick wasn't. And people bragging give independent flicks a change. I do, i'm in the scene over 30 years so I have seen it all by now. Sorry, this doesn't offer one thing to notice.

I went to Mask Fest and saw the World Premiere and I didn't understand the rave reviews then and don't understand the overly spectacular reviews on here now. I don't know if people were afraid of hurting the director's feelings or what, but it's not good, plain and simple. Not scary and down right laughable. I think there are some good ideas but it just didn't come together. I'm all for independent films but it needs to be better than this. A real disappointment especially given the fact that Lance put his name and his face on this project. Perhaps if he'd had a bigger part and it wasn't so obvious the director was trying to push his wife to the fore front it might have worked better. I listened to the comments at the premier and quite frankly I think people were just being nice so they could hob knob with Lance. The movie is just not good....sorry! Out of respect for the fact that I realize someone put their heart and soul in this project, I stayed and sat through the entire thing, hoping it would get better and it didn't. I generally don't write reviews but because of all the pre release hype that I found hard to believe, I kept waiting for someone, anyone to be honest... No one said what I and my husband were both feeling at the time, it was just not a good movie. I do give props to Betsy Baker and Lance...they were the ONLY reason we stayed til the end.
