Dark Fields

I'm a huge fan of z-grade horror flicks. I can definitely appreciate some pretty low budget trash. Ghost Lake, Aquanoids, Evil Cult, The Day The Darkened Arise--that's some quality bad cinema. Dark Fields falls into the category of sub-bad cinema. This movie is so bad (and in a totally unwatchable way) that I won't let any of my horror trash loving friends borrow it. Terrible story, acting, no memorable lines. Just plain bad. Seems like there wasn't any effort put into any portion of the movie.

The concert must be 500 miles away from how dark it gets during their pointless drive. Quite the major trip for them not to have bought tickets in advance or gotten their rides all figured out. Just one small example of the lack of thought put into the movie. It starts bad, and just gets worse from there on out.

Don't waste your time on this movie. Don't watch it thinking it could be so bad that it's fun to watch. It isn't. Stay back, back I say.

I don't see a "minus 10" vote up there, so I had to give it a 1. (what a shame)My 10 year old nephew is so much more capable of acting. During the movie I was literally laughing at just how bad and stupid a movie could get! I always wondered what some people meant hen they said horror movies made them laugh. Thanks for this piece of garbage. If anything it gave me a chance to experience it for myself! The two girls were acting like the dumbest people I'd ever seen. If the two survivors were the dumbest, then the three boys who got killed would be the most brain dead characters in the history of cinema. Was that really a killer or a scare crow that couldn't even raise his hand and stab somebody? He just stood there like a piece of dead meat and did nothing. Nothing at all! This is the dumbest killer I've ever seen portrayed in a movie. Let's all hope all killers are just as dumb in the real world! The movie looked as if it's been made by a home video camera. This so called "movie" looked home-made! I can't believe IMDb would even consider putting this here up for vote! Peopkle who say there are worst movies out there need to think twice before saying such a thing, because obviously this is the worst movie ever made, so no there are no films worse that this out there and I hope there never will be!

This film looked like it had the production budget of about 3 bags of weed. It almost looks like a student film. Bad lighting, bad soundtrack, bad plot, shallow characters and even badder acting.

I laughed out aloud at some of the bad dialogue and the main character "Taylor" who was more concerned about flicking her long hair and looking sexy than actually trying to act.

Given the obvious lack of funding, the badly written script and the amateur actors - the director than likely did the best they could - under the circumstances.

But there are a lot better Slasher style pics out there which have been made on a similar budgets and still retain a good story with lots of good chills. The indie horror film "Malevolence" is a prime example.

Wold Creek had a budget of $1 Million US - and it was one of the scariest and brutal films ever made in the slasher genre.

Granted this was an amateur effort, but that's still no excuse. An original idea may have been all that was needed to elevate this film above the level of "absurd".

First of all, I'd like to say, my favorite type of movies are cheap horror flicks. I love them! The cheesier the better! But this one, this one was so stupid. I contribute it mainly to the "killer". The title says he has an Axe. He never uses the Axe but maybe once. And the hair? Its just a wig pulled over his face! They couldn't have come up with anything better, even cheesier? At least put a damn mask on the guy! This movie sucked. I liked the barn idea though, the unusually big barn with several parts. Acting was terrible, I like bad acting but this wasn't even interesting. It felt like a project movie for a class. But the main problem for this crap fest was the deaths.

The first death, cheesy, gory, I like it but how is he gonna die from his arm being "grated". He just lays down and dies after his hand gets cut off. Not even realistic.

The second death, guy gets stabbed. Kind of lame and slow, not even very "serial killer'-esquire. Whatever, I'll take it.

But then, the rest of the movie is the two girls running from the killer wildly, but then entering rooms and leaving their backs to doors and spots where the killer was. Who would do that? I would be scared shitt-less looking around me. Nope, they couldn't even add a little realistic emotion. Then the rest of the movie is also the girls getting knocked out by little punches the killer gives them. It just turns into a boxing match, with the killer getting back up every time from things hitting him and knocking him out. Finally the girls shoots him with something. I don't really know what it was because I was fast forwarding, but the movie ends. No brutal Axe deaths or chainsaw stuff. Just a bunch of dumb plot and dumb boxing. No wonder it was free on demand.

Oh and the "bloopers" Not funny at all. Very basic "oh noes i messed up a line!! Lol" Boo. Overall this movie gets a 1 out of 10, and I'm not harsh critic.

Well, the main girl character is easy on the eyes. The movie, however, isn't. I have no idea how this movie made it to Lion's Gate. Poor script, poor characters, poor dialogue, worst psychopath ever, no idea what happened to the driver of the car -- yet, this made it to the video store. Lion's Gate easily spent more money on packaging than it did on the movie. The shots tended to go way too long (i guess they really needed to extend it), the use of slow motion looks choppy. The only way, I mean the only way, this movie would have been interesting if the main female character went topless (it's part of the horror genre). No idea why this movie was rated R, spent the last 5 minutes of the movie on bloopers to extend the movie more, no mention of which concert they were going to, music was flat/no feeling, over-acting or no acting ability, definitely from Canada with the accents, the trucker's beard was fake looking, the only character that acted nicely was the father from the beginning who really did look concerned -- concerned that the movie was going to be bad. I liked the car driver character only because he made me laugh. There were more holes in this story and more lighting problems than I have ever seen in a film. In summary, I feel cheated out of an hour. Lion's Gate should be ashamed of themselves.
