Bloody Murder (2000)
[Jessica Morris; Peter Guillemette; Patrick Cavanaugh; Crystalle Ford; Michael Stone; Justin Ross Martin; Tracy Pacheco]
Plot: Trevor Moorehouse isn't screaming bloody murder -- he's committing it! A dozen counselors arrive at Camp Placid Pines and receive a warning from a wizened landscaper: There may be a crazy man in the woods. Of course, they pay no attention until they start disappearing one by one! Has the urban legend come to life to wreak havoc on their dwindling numbers?
Ugh. I think I have a winner for worst movie I have seen this year. This is CRAP! The acting is sub-par, on a level with ... Gah, I have nothing to compare it to. The kids on Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers were better.
The story is weak, a very pale take on the "killer at the lake" that doesn't even hold up. It is such a hodge-podge of stuff that the film feels like multiple people did segements and then they just put it together and hoped it would work. It doesn't.
All this could be forgiven... Well, most of it, had the movie been done in a tongue-in-cheek, "let's poke fun at Friday the 13th" style. But it is played straight. It is meant to be a serious, real slasher pic.
GAH! Just sucks. Sucks. SUCKS! Avoid, believe me. Unless you want to know what NOT to put in your horror movie, then by all means, use this as a "Do Not Do" template.
There's a horror movie you can get on Netflix called Butchered. I hesitate to make fun of it, because several good friends were involved in its production, but...
ReplyDelete... it's probably worse than this one.
So you didn't like this one then?
ReplyDeleteThanks CJ for saving me from ever being tempted to watch it. I'll return the favor: avoid MOVIE HOUSE MASSACRE at all costs. Even though it has Mary Woronov in it!
ReplyDeleteThis is a real movie? The camp setting, the protagonist who looks a little...familiar...how did the the Friday the 13th people not sue?!?
ReplyDeleteA Mask??? A Chainsaw??? Very clever! LMAO!!!
ReplyDeletewill definitely put on the do not see list!
ReplyDeleteTHere is nothing worse that when these cheepies don't ever try to replicate something you love. They hurt me all the time with giant mythological movies or killer fish but I fall for it every time.
ReplyDeleteNow that people have suggested worse movies, you know Joe is going to get them to watch! LOL
ReplyDeleteOhhhhhh Im so sorry for you Wings, I only got through 15ms before I gave up on either this one of the sequel.. I think the sequel.. The hope would be that there would be some sweet ass gore or nudity, but they are completely lacking in both.
