Blood Reaper (2004)

Wonderful character development!

The Age of Commercialism

Excellent, Without a doubt!!

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

This movie was so bad it was good. Somewhere between the continuity errors, lack of plot, vomit-inducing bad acting, terrible writing and effects, and elements that just plain sucked, this movie fell out of the horror genre and landed heavily into comedy. Note: -the random guitar carrying guy who wanders aimlessly back into the forest -the chase scene that is shot...in a manner worse than home movies i've seen -the pointless ax (he always carries it, but always uses the knife to actually kill people) -and the guy who looks eerily like a goose. I don't think i've laughed this hard in a long time. Kudos to the talentless retarded dumb-asses who created this movie.

Blood Reaper (2003) is another crappy shot-on-digital-video movie that's stocked regularly at a local video chain store. I don't know why they stock these type of movies. They're plain terrible and for the most part unwatchable. I wish these films would just disappear from the face of the Earth. I wouldn't lose a wink of sleep if they did.This "film" is about a gas masked serial killer (swiped from one of my 80's favorites My Bloody Valentine) who stalks fishermen and drunk "kids" who are stupid enough to camp is a very dry and polluted section of forest. The cast is largely unattractive and can't act a lick. The filmmakers must have spent most of the alloted budget on casting Brinke Stevens (Her best years have long since past). They sure get there money's worth from Ms. Stevens.A movie like this doesn't have to be so lame. All you need is a decent script, a couple of actors who can act and a competent director. Alas this film has neither. The cast wears tight pants, the lighting is poor at best and the editing is pitiful. Worst of all the pacing needs to be worked on big time. The movie is a little over 70 minutes (which is the bare minimum to be considered a feature length film) but it felt like a three hour epic (that's bad). Even though the film has a short running time, the film is heavily padded.If you come across this movie in the video store run away. It's not worth the time and effort to actually sit and watch this lame attempt at film-making. There's no hot women, no gory set pieces and no fun. Do yourself a favor and get an older movie instead.

The film is just that- an exercise in horror. Poorly executed, sure, but this is technically a film. I commend the filmmakers that they got a crew and cast together and finished this, but, it's just of the worst quality. We've seen it all before. And it's like it was shot with a $300 consumer miniDV camera. What I did enjoy, I really enjoyed- the creepy horror music and the DVD case- they both get A's. The campfire scene with the country singer was strange. The 'waking up and the killer is sitting outside' was weird. So was the scene with the director as sheriff walking through the forest with the reaper creeping around. The sped up footage of the woman getting in the boat (verged on Benny Hill territory there). And the creeper's shack... I could go on and on. This film is an inspiration to would-be horror auteur's because you too can pull off something like this.No doubt this gave the cast/crew a couple weekends of fun to pull off, but it needs to be better all around.

I just don't understand why these things keep getting churned out? Would it kill someone to make a independent MONSTER MOVIE these days? This thing is so clichéd it's not even funny. The killer looks so lame, the only way he'd be able to get you is to kill you when you're on the ground laughing at him. Total clumsy oaf, terrible costume, and not threatening in the least. There are only two things that save this from being completely unwatchable, the music and the crazy tent lady. The music makes this film better than it should be. It's appropriately haunting and adds suspense when the situations in the film can't. Kudos to T.Reed for his work. The crazy tent lady is the only one who can act, if she is acting at all!. Very Lynch-ian, she belongs in a different film all together. All in all, don't waste your time. Just hunt down a soundtrack, it's a helluva lot scarier and creepy than the film itself!
