Lake Noir

LAKE NOIR --- MORE BRAIN DAMAGE
My previous experience with Brain Damage films has been less than memorable: cheap production values, horrible effects and acting, totally reliant on gore, violence, sex and stupidity. When I rented LAKE NOIR, I wasn't aware it's spawn of Brain Damage's seed. Thank God I didn't buy it!
LAKE NOIR does have a slightly better "look" but not significantly. The script is padded with pointless minutes of driving past boring vistas and lengthy diatribes on sexual conquests and the lack thereof. Once again, a group of idiots go off on a weekend getaway to some isolated destination merely to drink, smoke pot and have sex---why not just stay home, save money and your life? And once again, no one pays attention to the local looney who warns them to stay away---haven't these jerks seen a horror movie lately? And the ending is a real hoot, with the final credits warning us of the next LAKE NOIR saga??? Do yourself a favor----avoid this movie and any future Brain Damage assaults!

I really tried to like this movie.
I am sorry to have to say how bad this movie was. The actors were new and/or inexperienced. They were probably just starting out or wanted to be actors. With that being said, I must say the movie was awful!!! I could barely watch it. I skipped through most of it because of the bad dialogue and acting. It was just so bad it was almost funny.

The box, as always, tricked me. I had to throw my copy away. At least, I didn't waste very much money, but I do wish I had it back.

I loved the movie
I for the most part don't enjoy horror movies. In fact it seems to me that most horror movies have a lot of blood and gore and not much of a story line. I enjoyed this, because it had a story line and a surprise twist which I always enjoy. I would recommend this movie to others who enjoy horror or some that just want a fun movie to enjoy. If there is a second movie I will definitely enjoy that as well. At least I will pay good money to buy and watch anyway.
