I have to admit, all other things aside, Genevieve really made an impact for me here. No you will not see her without her clothes, if that is your first thought. Still she really is one of a kind - maybe it just me. Overall the acting (not just hers) is decent enough - especially if you considere the b-movie quality of it all.
Then there are some neat effects or outside the camera/frame. This may work or not - depending on how much slack you are willing to cut (no pun intended). Yes this is a slasher, yes people will die. I doubt you will care for most of them (Genevieve aside).
There is not much else to say here. The movie could have been better, but I've also seen way worse.

Very cheesy movie. Basic slasher in the woods. The movie has nothing new to offer. Seemed like they were trying to go with some comedy but every joke fell flat and seemed like a seven or eight year old wrote the jokes. In my opinion, I would say don't waste your time. There is much better movies out there.
Even it's not my favourite genre, I liked this horror film. "Dark Forest" is a very mysterious creepy film.. you know.. girls.. camp... forest and killer! The perfect mix, with some great scenes! I spent a really good time, specially front of the beautiful Canadian forest... and I would recommend if you like this kind of film!
Most slasher aficionados should appreciate this retro-feeling low budget effort which contains all the tropes you'd expect from an 80's slice-and-dice film from hot chicks, deadly hammers, a cool car, teens in the woods, a wild-looking killer, the nerd, the a-hole, the neutral guy and a cool synth musical score. The actor who plays the killer plays it up well and seeps sinister ooze in every shot he's in. Looks the part perfectly. The cast is largely amateurs who do well with what they have to work with as does the crew. But what really grabs me is the music which conveys all the dreaminess necessary in the dreamy-like sequences and all the dread in the dreadful scenes and all the suspense in the suspenseful scenes. Go in expecting a low budget effort and it should meet expectations!
You know the drill - take a bunch of horny teens to the woods and chop them up. Been there, done that, EXCEPT this one's really good fun while they are doing it. Plus, there's a soundtrack that's reminiscent of John Carpenter meets Depeche Mode - pretty close to film heaven. Looks great and there are some seriously gorgeous women to fantasise about too. Definitely worth a watch!
