Lady of the Lake

Good movie. You're very curious in the beginning about what's going on. The end is a bit predictable and I got confused because of the quick change of scenery and the special effects could have been better, but it was a nice movie to see.

This movie's only saving grace is at least you get to see a hot redhead naked and the excessive way beyond the call of duty overacting by Christopher Piggins is actually comical even when he's being serious.

The plot is very simplistic as it borrows from Ghost Story (a much better film) with a Rennissance fair made real to boot.The script is just well plain and boring.

The special effects show off the budget. If not for the nudity you might see this on MST3K or as a Sci-Fi channel late night movie .I was lucky in a sense because i worked as an assistant manager in a video rental store when this came out and got to see this for free but somehow i still feel like i paid.

The director of this movie spent 10 years trying to bring this project to life. His mission was a success. For all the people that enjoy fantasy this is the movie to see. It is as close to a film version of a true fairy tale as you can get.

Chapeau...

I remember this movie from when I was younger and have actively sought it out. I only recently managed to get ahold of it again. It has a rather unique and memorable storyline that is a good mixture of romance, fantasy and horror. It has some lovely aesthetics and some unsavory ones. All in all though it still held my attention and I loved it just as much now as I did then. Its definitely a take it or leave it kind of film though. You'll either love it or hate it and it is rather low budget so you aren't going to get anything spectacular in that department.

Rented on a whim.

Expected very low budget, bad, but hopefully amusing horror film.

Got very low budget fantasy film, with an unusual and interesting plot, a few surprising performances, an extremely nice looking lead actress, and some underwater shots that will stick in my mind for a long time.

The lead villain has a classic sneer. He could make a career out of that sneer.

A catchy main theme song as well.

The film has some continuity problems, but after seeing the "making of" on the DVD (which is a lot of fun to watch by the way) I totally understand.

I do wish they had not edited in some gore effects into the movie after all the shooting was done. Fortunately though, the most blatant cases of that seem to be at the very beginning and end of the movie - so they don't interrupt the story and general low-key feel of the film constantly.

The plot is so interesting, that I assume it was taken from an actual legend somewhere in Canada. If the film-maker came up with it on his own, he needs to be doing something besides slasher films.

Pretty cool.
