    Worst film ever

    This was one of the worst films I have seen incredibly bad movie the reviews that you see here is probably actors in this extremely bad movie it is a pity that there are rules that prevent it I do not know how to write 10 lines about this movie the film is probably made ​​of completely novice everything is wrong, lighting, dialogues, storyline it is so bad that it is not worth looking at, even if it was the last movie made Now I am approaching 10 lines which apparently is a rule in order to post here it's my first review and I felt I had to write about how bad it was I was expecting a fairly good movie but got my evening ruined so do not be fooled by the high rating, it is guaranteed that it is ppl who have been involved and made ​​the film that gave the high score

    It is just Bad

    This movie is so bad you cannot even enjoy it for its badness. It is obviously a vanity project for the lead actor/director/writer Tara Cardinal. Unfortunately, Ms Cardinal is not very good at any of her jobs in this. Her acting, and the rest of the cast, was stiff and uninspired. The directing was amateurish. And the story was unoriginal.

    The only positive thing I can say is, I admire Ms Cardinal for having a dream and pursuing it. Unfortunately this was a dream not worth sharing.

    Mostly I found the movie distracting. I kept being distracted by the acting, which as I already stated was bad. Then there's the fight scenes, which looked like they were from a high school drama club production. The fights moved so slowly at points they looked like someone filmed the choreography rehearsal. And then there was the oddest distraction of all. The characters' names, Ganesh, Adonis, Freya? How did she think using names from a mishmash of mythologies would help the plot line?

    Ah, this movie is just a mess. I've actually been known to enjoy bad movies. Some of them can have a certain charm to them. But this movie has no redeemable qualities.

    As I watched Red Reaper I kept having one thought. How did Tara Cardinal ever get funding for this?

    Complete crap - zero acting

    Yes it's awful, the only reason i watched it, at least the first 30 minutes is because i saw a positive review of the movie here in IMDb. But after i got enough of it, i came here to see all the review and all the good review are written by some people who do it for the first time, which means they just wanted to promote the movie. That pisses me off. And because of that i give it 1 out of 10. And i'll tell all my friends to give it 1 so this movie gets what it deserves. Acting is bad. Special effects are bad, directing is bad. Everything is bad. If there is anything good in this movie, i honestly couldn't find it, because it is buried under a lot of crap. Don't watch unless you want to get depressed!

    Very similar to Bloodrayne, but can't reach it

    I would really like to give this a better rating, but sadly, I can't. I don't know if the good reviews here are coming from friendship or adoring Tara Cardinal, but they aren't to be taken seriously.

    Sorry Miss Cardinal, you had a lot of troubles to bring this project to life, and you did a big job, given the circumstances, and you had really a lot on your shoulders, but in the end the movie didn't turn out well.

    It reminds me of some productions from Romania about Vampires, but we all know, those aren't good movies. Blood Rayne itself is in my opinion much more watchable. Still, there are other similarities than story and red-headed vampire heroine, particularly when it comes to common weaknesses. But that's another topic and is not to be questioned here.

    The sword fights here are too slow, there is not much to enjoy with the action scenes. They are far away from their announced greatness, and when I remember "Monty Python And The Holy Grail" decades ago, the action there had more impact.

    Of course, for insiders or dedicated fans, and those who can actually oversee the flaws by knowing how low the budget was, the movie may be fun, but for one who is spoiled by modern fantasy productions (and willing to close one and a half eye) it is disappointing.

    Especially the big bad enemy, who should be at least a dark, disturbing one, he is only a weak Wraith Clone (Stargate Atlantis). White hair and a electronically manipulated voice isn't enough (since 20 years or so) to give a frightening impression.

    All post-production done for this movie in an attempt to give it a little atmosphere, a more modern look, will be useless until there is the harsh decision made to cut out at least 20 minutes of footage, to fasten the pacing and to eliminate bad scenes. Furthermore, the story has to be straightened in the process and disburdened from several dead weight. For instance, the envious sister of Aella could probably be eliminated since she has no impact on the story. I personally think that at least partially a new soundtrack would help. And even then, I don't know if those efforts would be sufficient. But I recently watched a movie where the soundtrack was about 60% of what it made watchable, so....

    "Legend of the Read Reaper" was not the worst movie I have ever seen. It's not even among them. But frankly, it's rare for me to rate only 3.

    Like a porn film without the sex

    This film is truly the most awful piece of crap I've ever seen.

    Normally I like fantasy films, but good grief - this one takes the cake. Dreadful acting, terrible script.. so bad I thought it was a joke. Seriously, porn films have better acting. And better scripts. And better plot.

    In fact, instead of watching this rubbish, rent a fantasy porno, and fast forward through all the rude bits. It would be more entertaining, and be a better film.

    One thing, the sets, costumes, and makeup were nice - I think thats where all the money went. But thats about it.

    • Trivia
      Former WWE wrestler Al Snow choreographed the fight scene in the waterfall with Tara Cardinal, which he performed. Due to his extensive wrestling training and extreme strength, he was able to lift her out of the water and above his head while she was fully nude - thus giving him almost nothing to hold on to.
