Storyline

In 1877, a fierce creature, known as Bovinus Spiritualis (the Black Hodag) was discovered in the northern woods of Oneida County, Wisconsin. To this day, locals whisper of the Black Forest, and the curse of the creature that dwells within. "Backwoods Bloodbath" is an old school horror-gore flick about six friends who take a road trip to a back country town where a local legend has been feeding off the population for decades, only to find themselves becoming the latest items on the creature's menu.

low budget jeepers creepers

I was advised to have a view on this low budget independent and so I did. Just let me say that the acting is sometimes not convincing and the storyline isn't that good too. For example, when you get a scythe in your body, better say, chest you won't be smoking or drinking at all after wards. But here it happens, sadly. Or when Jessica runs into the death bodies of her friends she doesn't give any scream or isn't even bothered. When one screams to be killed, that's bad acting too but what makes this flick worth watching is the gory scene's. Okay, you will see a lot of blood but also severed limbs or crushed heads. And let that be the fact why this flick is worth watching. There are two shots that are a bit weird, two times the director just let us see some breasts, not that I mind but it was so weird, they are going to make love and you see them undress and suddenly one close up of a tittie. It's nice but could have been done into the scene, it's just an insert of it. Anyhow, I haven't seen any shadows from sound or whatsoever so that's okay. If you are in for a bloody low budget than i would surely recommend this flick. Just go for the gore and not for the acting...
