The movie is very silly, of course, and is probably worse than any slasher of the 80s era, but you can't deny the shocking and heavy impact…

A good masterpiece of suspence, totally a mystery type- suspenseful, and a great slash gem, a intense type of mystery with a very high speed…

Blood Lake is exactly what I thought it would be, a crazy maelstrom of CGI critters, melodrama, and garden variety of two-dimensional characters…
