Blood Fest

Your truly is an old-school horror fanatic, and the concept of meta-horror ranks extremely high on my personal list of most irritating cinematic trends ever. Sometimes, very exceptionally, it's used in a creative fashion ("Man Bites Dog", "The Cabin in the Woods", "Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon") but far more frequently it just comes across as pretentious and pseudo-intelligent. "Blood Fest" is the most embarrassing meta-horror film I've seen thus far, though. A slasher about surviving a pre-organized massacre by following the clichéd rules of classic slashers. Seriously? How many times has that been done before? Wes Craven centered his whole "Scream" franchise around this exact same gimmick, and even those films are massively overrated. But hey, writer/director Owen Egerton clearly thought his own script was brilliant, because he even depicts the "arrogant horror mastermind" himself. "Blood Fest" does contain some good gore and a handful of atmospheric moments (notably the clown gathering and the creepy dolls in the movie theater), so maybe there's hope that Egerton has it in him to make a half-decent "real" horror movie one day. You may now proceed to vote this comment as "non-useful" because I'm old, whiny and without sense of humor.

Solid horror film with enough blood to keep you entertained for the 90 min.

A fun movie to watch. The story was easy to digest and most of the acting was believable. I was skeptical to see this after the trash Lazer Team was but they proved me wrong. It's light faire but truly fun to see.

So the plot of the movie might have some originality but still wasn't as strong as i thought it would be .. and kinda lacked the element of unpredictability ,,with that been said ,, it was fun at times ,, had more than a couple of enjoyable giggly scenes and the graphics and cinematography were not bad at all ,, apparently with lots of movies being made annually these technicality are becoming affordable.

Cast wise,, it was good,, I knew Robbie Kay from ABC's Once Upon a Time ,, and he was amazing there ,, and here he did a really good job,, he got the talent indeed.. Jacob Batalon from "Spider-Man: Homecoming" was also funny and he delivered,, and the whole cast in general did good.

Overall,, the movie is one of these cheesy movie and probably low budgeted one ,, but i kinda different in away and i enjoyed it .. so Recommended.

Predictable and filled with cliches, but still somewhat entertaining overall. This has some nice effects (it is violent as the title does suggest, though there are other movies out there with a bigger amount/volume of blood flowing) and the characters while almost cardboard cutouts are being played with some gusto that makes you almost that fact.

This is not a great movie or a classic or whatever but it is here to entertain you and also tries on some morals (especially towards the end). Having said all that, it is just beyond making sense, so don't try to even think about character motivation and whatnot. Watch it without any single thought and you may be entertained, otherwise it might come close to a waste of time
