Review of Blood Hook (1987) by Kelly A — 30 Sep 2010

I never know entirely how to rate Troma films--they are all essentially terrible, and Blood Hook is no exception. Still, it is entertaining horror garbage that either purposely parodies the slasher genre or just purposely creates the worst slasher film ever.

You might be thinking that Blood Hook's title and cover are figurative or symbolic of the type of killings that occur, but you would be wrong--the film is about an angler/slasher who uses a giant hook and bobber to snag his victims.

The film develops in various ludicrous ways, but that remains the central premise. It is awful piece of cinema but a hilarious one nonetheless.
