Blood Lake (1987)
NOT AS BAD AS PEOPLE SAY!
24 February 2002
For years I've been wanting to write a comment on this film but could never find it in on IMDb. Now I can be honored with giving this film its first good review. Now believe me, if I could major in studying low budget trash, I would. And if I taught a course on it, this would be the first film I'd mention. The characters in this film are truly realistic. Sure this has probably the worst acting, writing, directing, producing, filming, distributing, editing, sound and picture quality around but it still is NOT A BAD FILM! It has more realistic situations because the actors aren't acting. It's their first film and most don't know how to act. Most of the teens in this movie probably don't know the first thing about acting. Now I've seen two films by the now apparently obsolete "United Entertainment." The first, Blood Lake, and the second, The Last Slumber Party. The Last Slumber Party was truly awful (read my review) but Blood Lake is just excellent. I can't explain my absolute liking and respect of this film. It's just so excellent that I'd make this required viewing for film students. I mean everyone has to start at the bottom, right? Obviously no one that has reviewed this film wants to give it a chance. **1/2out of****I guarantee that you won't like this film after you watch it for the first time. But after awhile you'll grow to like it.
