Voodoo Lagoon

This movie tries too hard to be something it's not that it fails to deliver. The characters are rushed that we don't get ample time to learn them let alone root or feel for them. A bunch of college kids who could all pass for models and simply couldn't fight their way out of a rumble with a blow-up doll. None of the characters are likable and they all come off as boring. Even the guy with the tattooed arm is wimpy (Ashley Hamilton "Tom") his character I waited for him to smoke a cigarette but guess I was wrong. Lincoln Lewis (Aaron) who I saw in the movie "Bait 3D" I think was wasted here.

The gore just wasn't gory enough to get a reaction, the suspense was simply not there, the fright was weak and failed to scare and the horror of the movie was most likely left on the cutting room floor. The acting we can't really blame as shallow as they are only as good as the director and in this movie it was the director who I felt failed. He Nick Cohen just doesn't cut it and never used his actors to his advantage. He used gore to scare and that alone is what hurts the movie. I've seen movie's with a similar base that works but here it's nothing more than a snooze fest.

Save your time and money on this one as it's nothing more than a time waster that never tries to grab your attention.

I am a truly dedicated fan of low budget trashy horror films, and of classy intelligent horror films too. Voodoo Lagoon does not fall into either of these categories. My wife and I decided to watch a film and couldn't find much on, we found Voodoo Lagoon and I checked the IMDb reviews and thought "ok, sounds better than it looks" how wrong I was.

Very cheap production values, terrible (and I mean terrible)acting, a bog standard and absurd plot line, some of the cheesiest "torture" scenes (the scene at the beginning of the film will have you in hysterics) It was the biggest waste of money I have made for a long time.

I try to find a good side in most trashy horror flicks and have no problem suspended my disbelief as a general rule, but this film is seriously, seriously poor....it had some nice scenery, that's about the only virtue I can find. I wish it was so bad its good, but it ain't, just plain bad.

Needing a break from their college studies seven young adults decide to travel to a small tropical island for a few days of sun and fun. During the plane ride there they are given a form to fill out which asks a number of questions with one being to list their greatest fear. Although this seems rather odd to them little do they realize that it will have a great impact on them when they finally arrive at their destination. Now rather than reveal any more of this movie and risk spoiling it for those who haven't seen it I will just say that for a rather low-budget type of movie this certainly had potential. The tropical scenery was nice, the story was initially intriguing and there were several attractive women as well. Unfortunately, the plot began to unravel toward the end and the overall lack of suspense and character development began to take its toll as well. All things considered it wasn't necessarily a bad movie but it could have been better. Accordingly, I rate it as slightly below average.

Class horror flick.

Great horror film that takes the mick out of the genre.

Makes a change from flicks that take themselves too seriously. Really enjoyed this as the voodoo tip was different to the usual slasher plot. Quality ending that made up up for slightly confusing plot. Ironic take on an all too often hackneyed genre made this film interesting and deff worth watching.

Some interesting dialogue and scenes, especially the beach scenes.

Direction was good and would watch again.

Enjoy!

Look it's simple if you like a cheap B-Grade horror flick With the standard group of friends drinking and sexing it up You'll get a kick out of this It's a simple B-Grade horror movie about a Group of friends Who go on a holiday to a remote tropical island Not knowing that they have been lured there by the island's evil owner To fulfill an ancient voodoo prophecy It's not bad but it's not great If you don't like Well at least you get to see the the likes of Natalie Blair and her female company skinny dipping lol But being serious it's not that bad it's okay if your into the Horror genre If your a romantic comedy person then don't watch it Because you'll give it a bad review But if you enjoy a B-Grade horror flick you may like it
