Spring Lakes

I'm a true supporter of indys. However, when you can clearly see cast and crew rating their own movie 10/10, then it goes to show the calibre of the film before watching it. The film itself should do the talking. Its the same with all the films from this cast and crew, reviewing their own work. Honestly, the film lacked a sense of direction with a confused storyline. It seems the focus shifted more towards the over the top and somewhat laughable acting at times rather than having a good story to follow, but they both needed more investment. 2 stars out of 10 for the effort. Otherwise i'd recommend they stick to their day job.

An excellent watch. James Bryhan kept us in suspense right through the film showing us every emotion and his co stars David Lamont and Rosalind Stockwell complimented James character. I'd like to see more of them working together. David Lamont wrote the film and it was evident - his personality comes through. James as the the lead never disappointed and hope this catapults him going forward. Magnificent!

The eerie feel of the film based on the woods gives the viewer anticipation as to what could happen next. Shadowy figures in the house and the black manic ritual provided the right recipe to shock us all. Great film.

We just watched the movie, we can't believe a child was hung upside down & torn apart. We've never seen such a movie where infants are exposed this way.

It's horrible and appalling filmmakers would let something like this be seen by audiences all over the world looking for, but this is a review or sending your way with the same thought goes against the grain of our believe stepping in an area that should never be stepped in, for this reason many will not be viewing your features in the future. I hope this is never re-created in any movie at any time in the near future or beyond for adults or children to have to view something so appalling and disgusting and heartbreaking. We value our children and this should not be displayed in a theatrical setting, I have not seen anything such as this in the many years of view and horror movies, which is my favorite genre, good luck but I hope you never see such a scene ever ever again.

5 stars on Prime!? Whyyyy??! Horrible movie. No plot, confusing, skips around, boring and stupid. I wish I could find a good part or scary part anywhere in the movie. We kept v debating whether or not to just stop watching it, but I kept wanting to see the part that warranted 5 stars. Don't bother. That part is not there. One star at best. We are 3/4 way through it and I don't think I can make myself watch anymore. It's just long streams of curse words and a lot of talking, but saying nothing. Nothing scared at all about this movie except that people actually gave it 5 stars! Poor acting, plot, and special effects. Very low budget.

Spring Lakes is a slow burning, fluid piece that tales Marcus's story in a serious of gritty scenes as well as moments when he is alone ,all of which are framed around Marcus's fears, hopes and the reality of walking through hell , physically as well as mentally. The cast give powerful, invoking performances that pull you into the film.

The atmosphere surrounding these affectual moments is one of true horror. They are on the cheaper side of indie effects, but all uses are believable. The soundtrack and music score push the macabre of the story to chilling levels.

Overall Spring Lakes gives us a strong, true film in gory, dramatic honesty. Ranjeet's directing shines as does the fantastic and beautiful performance of James Bryhan , leading the story through a tumultuous rollercoaster ride of emotions, especially those with Rosalind Stockwell, bringing this nightmare to life making James worthy of his leading man status.

The beginning does move slowly but the performance of both Marcus and Mary keep you intrigued making a worthy film that warrants watching.
