Featured reviews
Blood Shack is actually two films put together:
1. One story centers around a woman trying not to get killed by a madman hanging out at a shack in the desert. 2. The other film shows the sheer joy that can be had spending time at the rodeo on a hot summer's day.
Sadly all the action in the film takes place at the rodeo.
The filmaker(s) evidently ran out of story (or plot, or ideas etc...) about halfway through the film. So what we get is the protagonist will occasionally leave the crime scene and go to the rodeo where the viewer is treated (heh heh...) to scenes of bullriders frolicking about. These are the most frightening scenes in the film.
The horror action is cheeeesssyyyy and not imaginative. Everyone sleepwalks through this flick. No surprises, NO budget, no action, no acting, whew... just cheese.
Blood Shack is truly one of the worst films ever filmed. I still gave it a 4 though. I like the rodeo...

Easily the best horror film ever made. Makes 'The Shining' look like a crappy B-Movie. The way in which the film turns into a rodeo home-movie half-way through, for no apparent reason, is nothing short of genius.
It's so bad your sides will split everytime you watch it. Classic lines like "i told you not you go in there, and now look at you, you're dead" combined with rodeo footage that has NOTHING to do with the rest of film means for anyone who's seen it, this film is tops. Recommended with a capital laugh!
Okay, so this isn't one of Steckler's best films, but it's a lot better than "Sinthia: The Devils Doll."
Pretty Carolyn Brandt inherits a little house out in the middle of nowhere. Also on the property is an old shack...an old shack that is supposedly haunted by The Chooper, a vengeful Native American spirit. Anyone who unwisely ventures within the shack are never seen again...with the exception of two little girls who jump up and down on a stained mattress until they're chased off. (BTW - the little girls look exactly like their daddy, and I'll give you 3 guesses who daddy is!)
The killer isn't hard to spot, and after an hour or so of rodeo footage, Brandt's dreamy voice-overs and shots of her wandering around in the height of godawful 70s fashions, The Chooper reveals himself to her in a brief and un-shocking climax.
No, it's not a great film, but hardcore Steckler fans will not want to say they haven't seen it. If you saw "Incredibly Strange Creatures" and were disappointed by this one, don't give up, just go find a copy of "Rat Pfink a Boo Boo" and all will be well again, I promise.

With the odd red-herring rodeo show and crazy ninjas jumping off buildings, you'd be forgiven for wondering what the hell's going on here.
Still, any movie with the memorable line "I told ya he'd get ya, and now look at you, you're dead" has got to be worth watching at least once... right? guys?

Did you know
- TriviaRay Dennis Steckler's original cut of "The Chooper" was only 60 minutes long. The film could not be distributed unless it was a minimum of 70 minutes, so Steckler went back and added 10 minutes of random footage from the rodeo.
- GoofsThe setting is a small house and shack in the middle of the desert, an open area with no hiding places, yet the Chooper is able to run around dressed entirely in black in the middle of broad daylight without being noticed.
