I gave this film a 9 out of 10, because it was exactly what I expected it to be.

It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Brings me back to the days when I use to do sleep overs at my friends house. We would try to stay up all night watching scary movies with Elvira "Mistress of the Dark", Svengolie, or other similar late night horror guides. For the budget, this is a well directed film with the potential to become a cult classic. The only disappointment is the director kills off the key character making it difficult (but not impossible), to make a sequel. Who kills off Indiana Jones??? I would to see more about the background of the character Nigel. Perhaps he will consider a prequel explaining how Nigel got famous. I would definitely recommend this movie.

At first, I thought this movie was going to be so low budget that it'd be unwatchable, but I overcame the impulse to turn it off and soldiered on. Am I glad that I did? I suppose so. Some of the special effects were laughably bad (which kind of kills the appeal of watching a splatter movie), the acting was atrocious in a few scenes (I suppose they didn't have enough money to reshoot those scenes, unfortunately), and the whole virus/cannibal thing was pretty old ten years ago, but -- and here's the thing that saved the movie for me -- it was done with such enthusiasm, I couldn't help but like it. I can't really recommend this movie to anyone except Troma fans, who are likely to forgive the flaws in any movie that has nudity and gore. Just be forewarned that the nudity is fleeting and the gore very cheaply done.I hope that if the director does more movies, they won't be as stereotypical and uncreative, but, as a first effort, this really isn't so bad. Even James Cameron had to start with Piranha 2.

I wasn't expecting much from a movie with a cheesy title like "Bloodwood Cannibals" but I was pleasantly surprised by this DVD. The story follows a monster hunting film crew who are faking a documentary about Bigfoot when they find a crazy half naked woman in the forest. They attempt to "rescue" her, things go wrong, and violent mayhem ensues. Scalpings, gut-ripping, dismemberment... all the good stuff.The movie is clearly low budget, but the zany mix of laughs and scares make it a really fun ride. If you go in wanting a movie like "Cannibal Holocaust" you'll be disappointed. But if you like crazy little indie films in the splat-stick vein, this movie is a fun one to watch with friends.

This movie will not get an Oscar. But, I absolutely loved watching it. Three times so far. It's a wonderful, absolutely perfect B-Movie, independent horror movie. Great, bloody gore, boobies, and above all, an enthusiasm by the actors and film makers that makes it incredible. Yes, it's not as fast paced as today's MTV audience would like, but I was never bored. This movie made me happy, happy, happy. Happy that people are out there making crazy, crappy, fun, gory, B-Horror films. Loved it. Apparently this is one of the film makers earlier films, and I understand it is not perfect, but, wow, it was truly fun to watch. The editing in the final portion of the film was great. I cannot wait to see more from this filmmaker. Why do people make movies that are so serious and "real' all the time. Make 'em FUN. This is one of those! Popcorn deliciousness.
