Blood Lake

Blood Lake (Quick Review) This particularly awful film revolves around a group of poor-acting kids in a cabin on the lake wherein somebody starts killing them. Good. I hated them all anyway. This film's title actually appears in the extremely harmless "Garfield" font. Yeah. That fat cartoon cat. I kid you not.

Well, geez, where to begin? The acting is repugnant and the atmosphere is weak. The story is unoriginal and the killer is really lame. How lame? Well, Jason wears a hockey mask and carries a machete, Freddy has the glove with knives for fingers, Chucky is a demented serial-killer infested doll. This guy is a fat hick with cowboy boots and one leg of his pants is tucked into a boot--and the other isn't!! F*cking scary!! Well, roughly 25 minutes of this film are spent watching the kids water skiing on the lake. I'm serious, here. They might as well have flashed the logo for the brand of skis they were using across the screen. We literally spent about 10-15 minutes watching a few of them water ski, then finally they stop, head to the dock and then.... go out water skiing again!! They didn't spend this much f*cking time on the lake in "Piranha." The kills don't even look good and there is really no gore at all. This movie is just a waste of time. And afterwards, you'll be so depressed that you may see your life as pointless if this is what you waste your time doing. Watching total sh*t like this. You just might kill yourself.

Recommended to: Absolutely no one should ever watch this film. There is nothing good here, nothing creative, nothing interesting, nothing new--except for the pants thing, and that's just retarded. Only if you're a real hardcore horror curiosity seeker--but if you really want a depressant, just try alcohol. 1/10 (I tend not to give zeros.) By the way, it's shot on video.

I have seen many, many, MANY, many horror movies. You learn how to approach the different variations of horror films. I can do that, and appreciate everything from The Exorcist to Dog Soldiers to Pieces. But there is no way to approach Blood Lake. There is no appreciation after viewing. If there is, you're not human so go back home. The film offers the absolute low of everything. They've gone straight through the bottom of the barrel and gone way deeper. I cannot explain how much of a home movie this is. It seriously makes Zombie Lake look like the cream of the crop.

The plot goes.......far away before the camera starts rolling and you get a group of kids who had a dollar and their parents new cam corder whilst spending a weeks vacation at the summer home.

Stay away. I'm serious. This isn't funny. There's someone on the IMDB that says it gets better after seeing it a few times and he came to appreciate it. He OBVIOUSLY made the thing, and can barely bring himself to give the bunk a decent review. Be ashamed mister!

Blood Lake (1987) C-90 min. D: Tim Boggs. Doug Barry, Angela Darter, Mike Kaufman, Travis Krasser, Tiny Frazier, Andrea Adams. This has to be the most hilariously awful movie I have ever seen, and clearly the worst slasher film ever. A chunky killer begins murdering teenagers in a secluded house on the lake. Why? Who cares? Features probably the worst acting of any film in recent memory. Also features several long scenes in which nothing happens (such as the card playing scene). And what the hell is with that ending? RATING: 1 out of 10 (ONLY because you can't have 0 out of 10). Rated R for graphic violence and strong language.

Low, low-budget filmed-on-video 80's slasher movie. It's not the budget or the video that makes this so bad, but it's just a bunch of teenagers talking and water skiing for a full hour who are picked off at the last minute in total darkness.

No payoff really, but it's still not the worst of this type I've ever seen. The killer was ridiculous and not frightening at all. The endless chatter between the kids is at least a little entertaining.

This film essentially begins with a car containing 6 young adults driving down a rural country road with a boat in tow amid high hopes of spending 3 days together at a summer house boating, skiing and swimming. However, when they get to the house they discover that the refrigerator is stocked with fresh food even though nobody has supposedly lived there for quite some time. Along with that, they also wonder what happened to the gardener who was supposed to be around when they arrived. What they don't know is that a deranged man has been lurking in this area and has already killed the gardener and has now set his sights on them as well. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this was a rather low-budget horror film which featured a lackluster script, hardly any suspense and poor special effects. In short, it wasn't as entertaining as it could have been but I attribute much of this to the limited budget and have rated it accordingly. Below average.
