Great Film overall
... View MoreIt’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

... View More***SPOILERS*** Slasher movie involving six over sexed collage students who take a weekend trip out in the country to "Fever Lake" for fun and games and end up, as in most of these brainless teenage and collage students movies, the victims of this mysterious slasher who feels that they've invaded his space. We get a glimpse of what's to come within the first few minutes of the film with this crazed green eyed and possessed by the devil looking lunatic breaking into a house and brutally hacking the death this woman with her 6 years old son hiding in the attic. It's now some 15 years later where we see these collage students planning to take a leisurely trip into the country to chill out from all their day and night studying for their final examinations.Lead by the studious Albert played by the late Corey Haim the students stopping off at a local diner are told by the people there to stay away from "Fever Lake" in that, "like Crystal Lake of the Friday the 13th movies", there's a deranged lunatic running around there who's over the years hacked to death some dozen persons. Eevn when the waitress of the Diner Lila,Lindsey Brooke, is later found ripped apart by this gray wolf, the first one seen in those parts in over 100 years, they still go on their merry way to "Fever Lake" hoping to take in the sun and go fishing. It's the town Sheriff Harris, played by Bo Hopkins, who tries to get the students to cancel their trip to "Fever Lake" knowing full well that there's death awaiting them there. But as usual in him dealing with lame brains like them that's way over their heads and to no avail.***SPOILERS***It's the local wise man clear thinking and Native American Indian Clere Springs, Michael Wise, who does his damnedest to prevent the impending slaughter from happening by doing a number of what looked like rain dances to keep, as he called it, the evil from surfacing or bubbling up from under the dark waters "Fever Lake". No matter how hard Clear Spring tried nobody not even Sharrif Harris listened and the inevitable butchery that he tried to prevent happened with all the students but Albert ending up as chopped and hamburger meat. Albert or Cory Haim for his part in being the star of the movie was given a , by the movie makers, stay of execution so that like with Jason in "Friday the 13th" he'd be available for the film, "Fever Lake", sequel. Which in it having bombed out at the box office happily never came.
... View MoreThe writing and directing of this film stunk. That's the nicest way I can put it. But the acting made up for it. Bo Hopkins as the not so thick-skulled sheriff was marvelous. Okay now for my confession. I watched this movie because it had Corey Haim in it. (I know I know It's like watching charles in charge because it had Scott Baio) Anyway it was a decent movie. If they would have had a better budget and better director they could have made this a teen sequel to The Shining. Heres!! Alfie!
... View MoreWhy is this movie only #99 on the bottom 100 list?! This is by far the worst movie I have ever seen. There is absolutely no connection between incidents - and the ending sucks. And who have ever heard of a wolf that kills without being there, but it still feeds of its victim??? This is the only non-comedy I have laugh all the way through.
... View MoreMy fiancee caught this little teenage slasher one night and decided we should watch it before bed. Now, here is the type of horror/"comedy" film you and your spouse or friends can pick apart while laughing in between, and then laugh some more when the end credits show. Everything you want in a retard horror film is in this. From the classic stupidity, exponentially multiplied by the teenagers in this film, to the acting. I'm sorry, did I say acting? That was an incredible moment when this one towngirl the ill-fated heroes and heroines of this flick met and befriended with gets slashed, and the response? It literally moved me to tears as they read their lines pretty much from cardboards held up by cameramen with little or no attempt at acting it out.How stupid can people get in horror movies? It seems like their IQ's drop 50 points everytime they run into their friendly villain of the movie. Fever Lake, you're talking Forrest Gump drops here. This movie is plain silly.
