You won't be disappointed!

To me, this movie is perfection.

A lot of fun.

It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

To be honest I loved this movie, although most people did not. This is a low budget movie, $15,000 (estimated), so if you do not like low budget this movie is probably not for you. A lot of people also say that this movie has bad acting but in my opinion it seems raw, and believable, which really helped me get into it. The movie is shaky-cam, and the camera is handle like person holding was not experiences. It follows three collage students documenting their plot to become famous, or rather infamous. They decide that they are going to kill a random person just for this purpose. It shows them as they plan, set up, pick out their kill, joke around, and yell at each other. What is so amazing about Meadowoods is that you really feel like you are watching a collage documentary about three students trying to pull off a murder. If you have some free time, and enjoy low budget films or shaky-cam I highly recommend Meadwoods.

SPOILERS.. I turned this film off almost as soon as it started. I almost deleted it, but decided to give it one more try. At first I was aggravated by the home video quality, then I said: Hello! That's the idea genius. I was also expecting the worst as per a few of the hysterical reviews, herein. As it unrolled into my living-room, I was starting to see the real horror of this movie. The disparate characters were very well developed by the young actors. The sadness of Kayla's interview was revealing of her character; the hidden sadness that Ryan brought out. The weakness of Ryan, as her interviewer was tragic because he was afraid of not doing what the group wanted. When his interview caused pain to Kayla, he relaxed into himself and was effective as a human being to her, because the other two weren't around.. Stephanie was severely depressive neurotic, and Travis was beyond redemption. The point I saw in this movie was a chilling look at three teenagers, bored and unable to get with life, like other kids were doing. Funny thing is that I wasn't surprised that this whole scenario was completely plausible in today's society. That's the real horror.

Should this film even been included in the "Horror/thriller" genre? It deserves to be placed in your fireplace or burner to help heat your home. All copies should replace toilet paper for awhile. Now I can't make all these criticisms without valid reasons, so here they are. The actors were just genuinely bad. The woman fit the part but failed to act while the antagonist male didn't fit the part but had some acting potential. I didn't find the transitions artistic or innovative in the least. I found them as a detriment to the pace of the film and it was the first time a movie was able to aggravate me. The long portions of darkness captured within the "Box" (Which was no death chamber, but a piece of sh*t plywood contraption that looked like a monkey with no arms could've slapped together with a few nails and used his head to slam them in.) were just awful. They held no importance to the plot and was an actually, pitiful attempt at increasing a non existent suspense. I did find their motives sick and disturbing, but the way they referred to the plan, was so blatant that it became unbelievable. They were scheming in the coffee shop and saying "OH HEY GUYS HOW ABOUT THAT MURDER EH? BOY OH BOY I CAN'T WAIT TO KILL OUR VICTIM" Seriously, if I took a dump on the keyboard, the impact it would make with the keys would probably produce a better screenplay than this. You'd have no remaining brain cells left if you slammed your head against the keyboard enough times to compose of movie with this caliber of bad. You probably couldn't. Every character was an antagonist or I developed no sympathy for them whatsoever, so they failed in the character department of film. Overall, I feel those responsible for the movie should be ashamed of themselves and sit in a corner for ten years. I would've rather stared blankly into a toilet ravaged by bloody diarrhea than to have watched that dirty, dirty movie.

Why did I rent this piece of crap!? What a waste of a dollar. This movie moves slower than snail sh!t! Please do not rent this waste of film!! I am a huge horror fan, and .... Just Don't DO IT!!! DO NOT RENT THIS POOR EXCUSE OF A FILM!!!!!! I was going to rent the new Alice In Wonderland but thought to myself, oh I saw it in the theater, I should try something new, but no, I should have rented the other! I almost have a problem referring to this as a movie, more like a home video of some pretty poor actors. Do Not Rent This Film! Buy a bottle of booze instead, actually you could get smashed as hell and this movie would still suck! If I had my dollar back I would buy a Twinkie, or a Mt. Dew, I could buy a taco, or maybe 4 gum balls, anything but this crap!
