When I went to the local Family Video to pick up some stuff
last night, I grabbed some lower budget horror as well as some darker stuff for
the girls. OK, maybe Scooby Doo and the Lake Monster
Plot/ In 1992 a group of young Anarchists braved the snow
covered wilderness to set up camp against the construction of a motorway
by-pass. A terrible fate awaited them. 15 years later Susan, a successful
horror novelist and sensitive soul relocates from her native California
When I started watching this flick, I had no idea it
was actually a remake of the 1986 anthology film Screamtime (the second segment
Dreamhouse), but I got the feeling that I had seen it before. Sure, that could
have been from the linear clichéd storyline, stale dialogue, uneven pacing or rigid
performances, but there was definitely something familiar. Yes, the ending was
a bit of a twist I was not quite expecting, but that was not enough to make this
one stick out in my mind as memorable. To be honest, I have seen worse and I did not fall asleep, so it
was not all bad. However, there is no way I could recommend this for anything
more than background noise when working (if you are like me an enjoy working to
the sounds of horror).
