Blood Reaper

I was really looking forward to seeing this movie, once I found out Brinke was in it. Thus, I waited patiently....for 4 years! For a movie that took 4 years to be released, I expected much more, but I didn't receive that. It's your usual a group of twenty-something's, camping out in the woods, with a serial killer running around. Another thing that disappointed me was that "Scream Queen" Brinke Stevens was only in the first 5 minutes of this movie! Oh, what a let down. Anyway, there are some postives to this movie. The filming was professional. Although, shot on DV, the camera shots and editng were both strong, and the cast really did give it their all. My rating, 5 out of 10. It could've been much better, yet remains your typical, formulaic, slasher in the woods movie.

Look, unless you enjoy bottom of the barrel DTV do not watch Blood Reaper. If however, you find enjoyment in dreck like Last Slumber Party, Houseboat Horror or anything of that ilk you may want to seek this one out.

Competently filmed, a good location, cool killer and some decent gore plus an appearance by Brinke Stevens are all positives. There's also a genuinely disturbing bit with an elderly gypsy woman that is memorable.

Highly recommended for the die hard slasher fans, others best stay away from the Blood Reaper's woods.

This is my first review on IMDb, so bear with me. I just felt absolutely compelled to comment on this "film" after suffering through what felt like hell.

Now I'm not one to bash low-budget horror, but Blood Reaper is a complete mess. It is filled with some of the worst clichés I have ever seen, terrible production qualities, along with terrible acting, costumes, and dialogue. I consider myself VERY lenient when it comes to reviewing horror movies and I have endured some of the worst. So let me tell you folks, this is among the worst.

There is NOTHING redeeming about this film. The only people that I could imagine giving this high ratings are those involved in the production. Please save yourself $5 and avoid renting/buying this piece of trash. I almost went crazy trying to endure the first half of this film, then I gave up and watched the second half at 4X speed. I don't feel like I missed a minute of the film, that's how terrible it was.

The killer's costume looks like it was purchased at the local Home Depot and the actors seem as though they were pulled off the streets. The writing and plot exhibit how anyone with a bit of cash can film their own movie nowadays. The only reason this gets a 2/10 from me is because of my own rule: I only give a 1/10 if I cannot finish the movie.

Bottom line: Avoid this like the plague.

I just don't understand why these things keep getting churned out? Would it kill someone to make a independent MONSTER MOVIE these days? This thing is so clichéd it's not even funny. The killer looks so lame, the only way he'd be able to get you is to kill you when you're on the ground laughing at him. Total clumsy oaf, terrible costume, and not threatening in the least. There are only two things that save this from being completely unwatchable, the music and the crazy tent lady. The music makes this film better than it should be. It's appropriately haunting and adds suspense when the situations in the film can't. Kudos to T.Reed for his work. The crazy tent lady is the only one who can act, if she is acting at all!. Very Lynch-ian, she belongs in a different film all together. All in all, don't waste your time. Just hunt down a soundtrack, it's a helluva lot scarier and creepy than the film itself!

Very poor across the board .... it's not even worth reviewing !
