Warning!! Warning!!

[c-f-eller · 1/10 · 26 November 2007]

I cannot vote on this because I wouldn't watch garbage from these people. They got my money with another movie (Mr. Jingles) and I swore it would never happen again. I feel it's my civic duty to help people stay away from this trash. Go to the forums on this film and read where cast members try to act like they are seeing the movie for the first time. One guy even responds to himself ...using the same name! There are shills in the forum that say it's as good as Shawshank Redemption and Citizen Kane...Not even close (by no means). If this is the company's 2nd movie, it should be better than the first. That means the 3rd movie should be a lot better. Not so, I've seen it. All I want to know is how you distribute this trash using the same names all the time. Having fun with friends and making a movie over the weekend is fine...but don't try to market that trash!

THE BEST!

This movie is so awesome! The acting, the cinematography, the romance, the hate, the anger, the evil, all rolled up into one thrilling cinematic achievement. There is nothing that can stop the tyrant of the LURKING TERROR!

No reason to be on IMDb.

I don't really post comments, but wanted to make sure to warn people off this film. It's an unfinished student film with no redeeming features whatsoever. On a technical level, it's completely amateur - constant unintentional jump edits within scenes, dubbing wildly off, etc. The plot is completely clichéd, the structure is laughable, and the acting is embarrassing. I don't want to be too harsh: I've made my share of student films, and they were all awful, but there's no reason for this film to be out in the world where innocent fans will have to see it.

Safe assumption that - much like the cast - positive comments are filmmakers, friends, and family.

Nice Indie Horror Flick

[seiken2 · 9/10 · 5 August 2005]

This is a nice little horror flick that fans of indie films will really appreciate. It has good acting, lots of gore, and a decent plot. One will be reminded of movies like The Hills Have Eyes and Pumpkinhead. It's obvious that the budget was not all that big, but the film really makes up for it with atmosphere and solid performances by the actors, which seems to be lacking in a lot of today's big budget special effects-filled films. The film really moves along and there is excellent direction and good camera work. There are no wasted scenes, so the film's length is a bit short. In addition, it looks like the ending leaves an opening for a sequel, which would be very interesting as well. So grab some popcorn, turn down the lights and enjoy this one.

a great little film

LURKING TERROR is a great little film! Can you think of any other movie that features cannibals, crooks, cops, and a creature? Filmed in the backwoods of rural Michigan, the atmosphere is just creepy enough to make you look over your shoulder next time you go camping. This is Crossbow 5's 2nd film and is obviously sending them on their way to film infamy.

Their new picture (just saw the screening the other night), one-ups this one in production values, gore, mayhem, and watch-ability. Todd and Tommy have a keen eye for selecting up-and-coming stars for their features.

If you're a fan of indie horror films, you won't be disappointed if you rent LURKING TERROR!
