Loon Lake

The acting, directing, cinematography, score and screenplay have been carefully crafted in this well-above-average indie horror flick. It reminded me of many other horror movies I love ("The Ring," "The Possession of Michael King," etc.), but still stood out strongly as its own story. I was very impressed by the acting, character development and dialogue in particular. I'm glad I heard about this one!

I like suspenseful, intelligent horror more than gore. This is a real thriller of a ghost story! A really well done, scary, haunting horror film. It's psychological, well shot and acted. I'm so glad I watched this one!

I enjoyed this psychological thriller. The acting was excellent, the Minnesota locations were atmospheric and haunting. It might be low budget, but the story is compelling and keeps you on the edge of your seat. Highly recommended for Halloween viewing.

This movie is awful. It makes no sense. What is the deal with the witch? Is she a good flower-child, but the 1800s version? Is she an evil seductress? And the woman who plays he is the absolute worst actress I have ever seen. This is not a horror movie, either. Nothing happens and nothing makes sense. And why introduce Gracie if she just disappears?

David Shelby was good as Emery. That's the only positive thing I can say.

Loon Lake is an amazing indie horror film, from Ansel Faraj, staring Nathan Wilson, David Selby and Kathryn Leigh Scott. It tells the tale of Louis Olsen, a broken young man trying to escape the city and his past. Louis is then confronted with legend of Mary Jane Terwilliger, the Witch of Loon Lake...

I'm not gonna spoil any of it here, you'll just have to go watch it yourself, trust me it's worth it.

The Movie is a beautiful mix of folk Horror, ghost story and mystery, with a deeply melancholy atmosphere throughout. The cinematography is reminiscent of people like Dean Cundey and John Coquillon and the whole thing come across as a throw back to 70s cinema.

I can't gush enough, about this Movies! It's rare these days, that I'm actually surprised by a movie, especially in this genre. It just proves that you should never judge a movie by its budget!
