| User ReviewDavid LBloody Hell - That is actually the best way to describe this. It was pretty awful from the start with five teenagers, each with an inability to act, staying over in the woods where a legendary massacre took place years ago. What was pitted as just another Urban Legend turns into a reality when a large figure equipped with a potato sack over his head starts butchering the group one by one. It's actually a relief to see them die so we don't have to witness their lack of talent anymore, but instead we are then subjected to a mass of unnecessary blood. A single punch to the face seems to yield a pint of blood being leaked, and when someone has a stab wound to the stomach, there is a further fountain of blood projected from the mouth. It's totally over the top and unnecessary but amusing in a strange way. I actually have no idea who the killer was at the end of it all, but at least that meant the continuity of the poor script was consistent with the rest of the film. I had never heard of this film before, and I can see why now, as it's just a very, very low budget Scottish production which had about as much chance of success as their national football team. |
| User ReviewQuincy TAxe swinging and syrup splashing montage. The title pretty much tells the story, there are some killings in the wood and that's pretty much it. This so called massacre is presented by the antagonist whose blows are powerful enough to make a fountain of blood from any victim he meets. While hemorrhaging is no joke, it seems everyone has tendency to squirt liters of blood from the slightest touch. The excessively low budget gore is occasionally creepy, but mostly ironically ridiculous. Nevertheless, it has at least a little entertainment value. A group of people go to a forest and meet with gruesome fate. Honestly, no one in the group is even remotely likeable. Either they suddenly encounter the threat and proceed to usual frantic screaming, or the movie invests too much time on shallow characters. One particular female is so hostile, her entire dialogues consist of argument. This is very bizarre, especially when she still argues in the moments where her survival is at stake. At some points I thought she might just debate with the villain. Other characters are overzealous, lacking logic or too meek. None of them feel as though they are genuinely facing authentic dangerous scenario with the villain gradually approaching. Scenes are poorly done, mainly because the editing is choppy. Almost the entire time the characters are shown standing randomly and awkwardly delivering the lines. Furthermore, it feels the screenplay misses a couple of scenes or lacking consistency, but audience probably wouldn't lose much anyway. The effect is laughably over-the-top. Expect too much cheap blood spewed on the screen. It really doesn't matter what the cause is, these people will bleed. It only takes a simple jab and one of them starts to vomit blood until their hair and clothes are covered with it. This silly execution might just serendipitously work in in their favor as comedy effect. The Redwood Massacre is unoriginal and shallow, even to the point of unintentionally funny, but the rigid slasher premise or silly antic might just deliver a few chuckles. |
| User ReviewAndrew JPlenty of gore aside, it's just a complete waste of time. |
| User ReviewLee MDecent gore, but the rest is a joke. Horrible acting, terrible lighting, stupid dialogue, and boring characters. Lacks diversity in the kill sequences as well. Not a lot going for this one.. |
