Such a frustrating disappointment

just watch it!

Excellent, a Must See

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

This movie is really good. I'm not really sure why this is getting bad reviews I thought it was a well made slasher flick. I love this movie and I feel it is under rated

Back in 2011 I had the pleasure of meeting director Marcel Walz and actress Annika Strauss at The European Weekend of Horrors in Germany. They were lovely people, extremely passionate about their chosen pursuit and very friendly, so it pains me to say that Seed 2 (AKA Blood Valley: Seed's Revenge), directed by Walz and starring Strauss, and co-written by the pair, is far from a great film (to put it mildly).A sequel to Uwe Boll's Seed (2006), Seed 2 follows four girls, Christine, Olivia, Barbara and Claire (played by Natalie Scheetz, Christa Campbell, Sarah Hayden, and Strauss), who, after a wild hen night in Vegas, run into a family of killers in the desert, one of whom is none other than Max Seed (Nick Principe), the psycho from the first film.What follows is a series of torture scenes involving some fairly brutal violence (gore courtesy of director/SFX guy Ryan Nicholson), but what makes the movie a total let down is the woefully unoriginal script (which borrows heavily from The Hills Have Eyes and The Texas Chain Saw Massacre), the equally dire performances, and, worst of all, the pointless non-linear style that, rather than add intrigue, simply makes the whole thing a confusing and thoroughly irritating mess.Sorry Marcel, and sorry Annika, but I rate Seed 2 a pitiful 3 out of 10 (solely for the gore), minus half a point for having Claire wander the desert despite being run through with a serrated knife and nailed to the ground, and minus another half for leaving me scratching my head in puzzlement: exactly who was Caroline Williams supposed to be? Seed's mother? In which case, who was The Officer (Manoush) and why did Max Seed snap her neck at the end?

It would be nice to describe this film as a sick fantasy, unfortunately there is absolutely nothing nice about it, and although it is unquestionably sick, it is not even fantasy because over the course of the 20th Century especially from the 1960s onwards we saw the real thing with the Tata-LaBiancha Murders, Bob Berdella, the Chicago Rippers and many more both within and outside of the United States.While a documentary about a serial murderer may have some or even a great deal of merit, what merit is there in a low budget horror film that revolves around the slaughter of a group of passingly attractive Beta females in the Arizona Desert? Unless you are into mild special effects - like seeing a woman crucified - give this one a miss.

Seed returns in "Blood Valley: Seed's Revenge", this time with new story and direction provided by Marcel Walz. Uwe Boll hangs back as producer on this sequel to the 2007 slasher horror. "Seed's Revenge" moves the nightmare into the desert of the southwest, not far from Las Vegas, where some girlfriends find themselves battling for survival against Max Seed's brutality."Seed's Revenge" takes on a whole different look and feel than the original film directed by Uwe Boll. This one has a modern grindhouse/torture porn thing happening that comes of more like Suicide Girls take on the Hills That Have Eyes. It just really doesn't fit the bases of what Boll created with the character and his mythos-what little there was of one. Max Seed still is just as menacing and brutal as ever, only in "Seed's Revenge" there seems to be less of a plot than in the original one. The cast do decent enough jobs at being lambs for the slaughter, but there isn't a strong continuity in the style that Walz chose for the full story arc to make an appearance here. Choppy scenes fragmented between the present and past events are more cumbersome than dramatic and emotional. I understood the intend of showing the powerful and gritty fate of the characters, then pull us into the more human, and compassionate side, but so often, and suddenly makes it almost unnecessarily broken-the story that is. It also confuses the intended effect. The special effects are half and half. The practical, bloody, full on graphic violence is still present in "Blood Valley: Seed's Revenge" , but the theatrical nature and religious overture of the sequences felt more ridiculous than artistic. Then there is that pesky CGI stuff that kills moments. Plus the moments that CGI was used in this film could have been done just as effectively through practical application. The soundtrack and atmosphere is acceptable, however it is over used a lot. Some scenes the music just bursts into the scene for no real reason- especially when the result is so underwhelming. Overall "Blood Valley: Seed's Revenge" is a let down. The story is a thin, fragile spectre of the Max Seed mythos, with more torture porn attention paid than actual, purposeful story. Plus the setting and deeper development of Max Seed's character, and a few others introduced, just seems convoluted. On a positive note, the kills are gruesome, bloody and brutal. There is no remorse or concern for audience tolerance. The ending that ties into the first film is a really cool moment in the film but not enough to save this sequel. If you set out to see the film just be warned that it is less impressive than the first film-by Uwe Boll-that that as you will.
