You too can make a movie

I'm not sure why movies like this keep popping up---low budget pieces of crap shot with one shaky camera.Independent films are one thing but just because you've got a camcorder doesn't mean you need to make the movie you've always dreamed about.

Two backwoods brothers living in a secluded run down old farm house just want to be left alone but some town smart alecks just can't leave well enough alone.After one of the brothers chases the town slut through the woods and she falls and implausibly kills herself on a stick their isolated life quickly spirals out of control.

The script is terrible ,the acting is cardboard and the special effects are neither special nor effective.This movie reminds me of looking at someone else's vacation pictures....it may have been fun for those involved but it is sheer torture for anyone else to have to see.

There is nothing much else to say about this mess except it is another homemade piece of drivel ,made by people with no talent for movie-making, that today's technology has made all too easy to churn out.Sometimes bringing too much technology to the masses can be a bad thing,as the recent explosion in the ability to produce home made horror films should attest.Get a camera ,some fake blood,a couple of chicks willing to show their milk bags,maybe an axe or two and an old rundown house and you too can make your very own horror movie.

Then after you make your movie keep it at home where you can proudly show it to family and friends and any one else who unwittingly wanders by but never, ever,under any circumstance ,put it out on DVD for commercial release.

Like scrap booking and knitting,the results of your homemade movie making should be solely for your own personal enjoyment.
