Cyrus' Back!
***SPOILERS*** Going to spend the weekend in the wilds of rural Pennsylvania a group of young people get the surprise of their lives in running in to the the crazed and LSD brain damaged lumberjack Cyrus who's been hunting the woods around "Dark Shade Creek" for the last 40 or so years. It's when the vacationers, Emma Vanessa Paige Chuck Doug & Spank, got to the place that all hell broke loose! Not just for them but all those in the vicinity of "Shade Creek" who in fact warned that they to stay away from it!
The usual slasher on the loose movie taking place in the wilds and unaccessible, by cell phone, woods of Pennsylvania has Cyrus, who by then must be well into his 70's, do the kind of job on his more or less helpless and not to bright victims as good as Michael Myers or Jason with hockey mask did in the "Halloween" and "Friday the 13th" movies did on theirs. There's the usual and predictable heroic of the hero in the flick who we can spot as soon as he or she appears on the screen. As well as the not so surprising surprise ending but the film hold up and keeps the both tension and horror going for it almost its entire 90 minutes of screen time. That's far more here then you can expect from like wise horror/slasher movies that cost a lot more and are far more well known as "Dark Shade Creek" is.
One fact about the movie is how well made it was despite it's microscopic budget of a measly pocket change amount of $500.00! That was just enough to buy a video or camcorder and a couple of DVD disks or video tapes to make it! Yet it's as good if not better then movies of that type that cost millions and had well known actors and actresses in them!
