Four
people go to travel out in the Florida
Everglades for a restful vacation for two
weeks out in the woods in a cabin but
however, they encounter some strange
local small town rednecks trying to ward
them off and warning them about some
creatures called the Blood Stalkers. No
one believes their warning and still
carry on to their trip but are almost
lost in finding it.
Later on they have fun by skinny dipping
in the lake there and have a bit of a
romance too.
One of them who is a vietname veteran
named Mike (Jerry Albert) discovers that
their car has been wrecked and hears
strange sounds too.
They are also terrorised by what seems
like some sort of a creature but is
really the family of rednecks they
encountered earlier and were badly
slaughtered while Mike tries to find help
but none of them offer so he is on his
own to seek revenge against these
maniacs.
Oh god! What was
the reason for making this heap of
trash!? Nothing!!!! You can't understand
the story too well and there was no
reason to why the killings happened only
by some rednecks but you never understand
what made them want to kill only cause
the lead characters didn't believe in
Blood Stalkers.
This is sad and it really bites the big
one as I sometimes felt it tried to rip
off Hills Have Eyes in
some ways.
The acting is
quite bad in this film as barely any of
them seemed at all convincing but
however, scream actor Ken Miller as
the witty one in the film can bring a
character to his part fairly well.
Toni Crabtree seemed to do fairly
okay herself with her actions in the
film.
Lead actor Jerry Albert as a
Vietnam veteran tried his best with his
part in the film trying to survive the
madness and can pull some of his actions
well.
Supporting actor Herb Goldstein
as an old redneck needs lessons for sure
as he tries his best but can't pull it
off at all.
There's a brief
breast and butt shot on Toni Crabtree
after skinny dipping in a lake and a butt
shot on Jerry Albert as well.
There's a corpse
of a dog.
Some bodies are stabbed by an axe and
impaled by sharp objects in a cabin
Some deadly stabbings in the neck and
other parts.
A sherriff's arm is cut off
The directing by
Robert W. Morgan is so below average
but he does show some interesting moments
in it but not a heck of alot.
There's a bad dialogue between lead actor
Jerry Albert and supporting
actor Herb Goldstein at a gas
station as Goldstein tried to
sound convincing about a group of killers
called Blood Stalkers trying to ward them
off but doesn't do the trick but tries to
show nasty expressions.
There were some good shots on the
supporting cast performed by Robert
W. Morgan, John R. Meyer
and David Faris Legge as
rednecks acting threatening.
There is a stupid moment by bit part
actor Stan Webb as a mute
hillbilly who acts like he's mentally
challenged which looks humiliating with
Morgan's work on it.
There is a good emotional dialogue
between Ken Miller and Cela
Ann Cole which is one of the only
best directions throughout this whole
plot.
There's a great freaked out reaction on
Albert after he hears a screeching
sound.
A nice dark shot on both actors Crabtree
and Albert skinnydipping in the
night with a dark figure watching over
them as well as swimming in the water.
There's a shot on Cole with an
arm grabbing her crashing through a
window as her reaction is very phony but
a great close up shot on Miller
with his shocked reactions.
There's good night shots on Albert running
for help as well as later on him tripping
over and falling into some water.
Good close up shots on Crabtree smoking
a cigarette.
Nice fighting sequences involving Morgan,
Meyer and Faris.
There's great shots on someone dressed in
a monster suit with all three actors Miller,
Cole and Crabtree all
freaking out.
There is a nice slow motion shot on Albert
about to kill with an axe and a good wide
eyed shocked reaction on Legge.
Goldstein does fairly okay looked
shocked and frightened but he is still
low with his energy.
Albert seemed to do well limping
away depressed by what all has happened
but still this story was sad.
The music has some
good orchestra and some groove tunes.
There's also a good humming by a woman
towards the end of the film which makes
the story sad all composed by Stan
Webb
