Weak as syrup!
This is meant to be part of the After Dark's 8 films to die for Horrorfest. I am not fussy when it comes to horror, but their standards are REALLY sliding! This was badly acted, scripted, shot and in fact bad in every department. The comedy falls flat. The characters' stupidity is beyond reason! They are stereotyped, unlikeable brain-dead twits! They stand there while the killer prepares to kill them! The killer's only weakness is an allergy to pancake syrup?! I mean WHAT THE %3@&! Another gripe is the very long running time of 105 minutes. It should be cut down to 80 minutes. The content of this movie does not have enough for the excessive running time. This is not a B movie in a good way....This is a complete disaster! Michael Madsen appears to really need a paycheck for appearing in this one! My very first F in the usually high standard After Dark label. AVOID!!!!
Are they Flapjacks or Pancakes...Make your mind up now.
Can someone tell me what i've just sat through? This has to be one of the main contenders for worst Film in living memory. I thought for a moment this was Horror Comedy but the "jokes" weren't funny and the Horror was nonexistent, so what genre does this fit into then? Is there a genre simply called "Bad Films"? There were plenty of Boobs on offer and not just from the female Cast members but from Script to Camera work to general acting to Continuity. The Kills were shockingly bad, a few of the Female Characters who dared to bare were obviously Blind as they failed to notice guys standing directly infront of them ogling them and perhaps the worst crime of the Film we had the Film Industry equivalent of Graham Poll issuing 3 yellow cards to Josip Simunic before sending him off, yes, we saw a Character being killed not Once but Twice!! A Ranger who inexplicably showed up on foot and seeing a pile of Pancakes randomly in the middle of the road on a cart got mashed by Mr Easterday, generously covering said Pancakes in a healthy dose of the Red stuff only to then show up equally as randomly later in the Film at Easterday's secluded Woodland Shack for his second bloody death of this unbelievably poor piece of "art" immortalized in Celluloid. My eyes are burning after watching this and my head genuinely hurts. I can't believe they managed to wring over 90 minutes out of this, in fact 60 minutes would've been 60 minutes too much.
Bad movie, kind of fun
Maybe you have to be in the right mood with the right taste in comedy to enjoy this movie, which is why I think many other reviews are negative. But dang it if I wasn't in the right mood with the right taste in comedy. That doesn't make it a great movie, but it was just the right amount of blood, boobs, and genuine chuckles that I wanted. My advice for enjoying it would be not to expect a good horror movie. It's a decent comedy that alternates between self-aware mockery and nonsensical goofiness (though it's not always 100% clear if it's on purpose). I'd love to hear a director's commentary on this. I'm sure it would be a lot of: "We don't know why we did it this way, but it was funny." or "This didn't quite work, but we left it in." "They didn't have lines, so we let them say whatever."
The acting most essentially ruined it all...
While this movie is the caricature self of horror movies (e.g. a group of people going in the woods and dying one by one), there was probably some small potential with this movie if the acting was far more superior than what was shown [...] Before talking about this specific element, this movie really struggled in a terrible manner between "comedy" and horror. There must be a reason why there was so much over-the-top gore! The movie failed somewhere and the excess gore was just a manner of covering up that thing. I blame the acting and overall weak story. indeed, watching closely, the majority of the actresses suck at acting all together except probably in the genuine moments of joy when they played with one another between adolescents. Certainly the only moment they were able to bring me to their world. In many scenes, Ciara Flynn was just not credible. She has this cold and distant thing about her that just does not invite people into her world. She has a hard time grasping people's emotions because she is just terrible at transposing them [...] That scene at the end is just the pure representation of what she's been in this movie where she is caught trying to play so many different roles at time for intrinsic capabilities that I really felt sorry for her. I could name a few other girls but you can see that half and more are not even known to the general public. They were just not credible for a horror movie. Finally, this movie really has some fundamental flaws. Half or more of the kids were disappearing and no one really ever bothered, which is weird -; whichever, the attitudes of the kids in front the demon was a complete farce. I mean, I can understand that you are afraid but stupid? Do we human beings react this stupidly in front frightful situations? No! And, that's why somehow this is a caricature. You had the feeling that these people were just voluntarily putting themselves out there to get killed. I'm not even going to mention that stupid policewoman her lieutenant who basically never ever really served to anything other than being fundamentally dumb in this movie. The whole thing failed on both accounts: first at being funny as they attempted many times and second at being a horror movie because of how bad the acting was all together.
Could have been good but the silliness ruined it
A bunch of rather older-looking kids travel to a Christian camp out in the woods. There's a lot of painful silliness the bus. Once they arrive we meet their ridiculous leader, a pretty girl also in charge, and the cook(?). It's not long before they start taking their clothes off and the marijuana jokes begin. For some reason only one pair of girls seem to be Christian, the rest not so much. Meanwhile some stranger is traveling in the direction of the camp. He stops at the park ranger office to warn that everyone is going to die and they should evacuate immediately. As evidence he offers some old newspaper clippings. But of course he's right. By now someone or something dragging some large-pancake cart has started killing kids. It takes a while before the guy who's some researcher arrives at the camp and warns them. At that point we learn who the killer is and why he kills. It's a rather ridiculous explanation that I won't give here. Soon enough the killer arrives in the middle of dining hall and the mayhem is on. At this point the movie decides who the lead characters are and those will have figure out a way to eliminate this killer for good. I really like the spirit in which this movie was made. I'm all for 80's-style raunchy teen slasher flicks. But as often happens, they had to ruin it by making it a parody/comedy. One movie-making convention seems to be that if you combine teens and violence you have to mask it as a comedy. Unfortunately making comedy and even more so, parody, is far more challenging than straight-forward horror. There are couple of good lines though. Lumberjack Man is 1:45 hours--at least 15 minutes too long, a strange decision when you don't have a lot of budget. Another convention of low-budget movie-making is that you've got to have at least one big name in your cast. In this case it's Michael Madsen who does a good job, not taking the role too seriously. The rest of the main cast does surprisingly well. All of them give committed performances. The problem is the silliness factor, not the acting. One weakness of this movie is that it really doesn't give us a lead character for which to care. Of course, it's the girl who doesn't take her clothes off who will end up being the lead, but for most of the movie, she isn't. For a movie like this, the cast isn't particularly attractive. Brina Palencia in some tertiary role is lovely though. Then there are some porn stars here for some reason. I'm very conflicted about this movie. I enjoyed the gore, violence, and nudity but hated the goofiness. The movie-makers have some talent and enthusiasm but botched it.
