Review of Blood Shack

Blood Shack (1971)
1/10
The worst movie I have ever seen
30 October 2013
This movie has the distinction of the worst movie I have ever seen. There might be worse ones out there, but I haven't seen them. The casting and acting are bad; the cinematography is bad; the audio is bad; and the writing and editing are epically bad. After seeing some of the trivia on this site, some -- but not all -- of the woeful quality of this film is explained. Namely, the movie was shot on leftover, partially exposed film stock and the production crew didn't have many resources available to them. This does not explain the nonsensical behavior of the characters or the ability of the villain to remain undetected in broad daylight.

The "director's cut" length of about 70 minutes really should be renamed the "distributor's cut" since unrelated footage of a rodeo was inserted into the movie to make it long enough to be eligible for theatrical release. If you don't know this when you watch that version, you will be mystified by what you're watching when you get to that point.

Not exciting. Not interesting. Doesn't even make sense.

This movie gets one star because I can't give it zero stars. In fact, this movie owes me some stars!
