Fans flock to a festival celebrating the most iconic horror movies, only to discover that the charismatic showman behind the event has a diabolical agenda. As festival attendees start dying, three teenagers -- more schooled in horror-film cliches than practical knowledge about neutralizing psycho killers -- must band together and battle through various madmen and monstrosities to survive.

The generally likable performers do what they can with thinly drawn characters whose traits are limited to "virgin" and "ditz," but it's hard to care much about what happens to them even as generic archetypes.

Attempts scares and yucks in equal measure and fails to deliver either.

After an incredibly spirited and entertaining first hour, Blood Fest gets tripped up on its laborious explaining about the hows of this terrifying event.

Bloody, witless and tasteless valentine to horror films.

The Last Thing I See

It wears its heart on its sleeve, but in the end, it derails and winds up nothing more than a trifling momentary distraction that doesn't leave much of an impression.

Rated: C

Ghastly Grinning

Overall, Blood Fest is a blast. It has a plot that is astronomically unfeasible but it doesn't matter because you're having so much fun with the film. As a horror fan, it's a must see.

Filmes sem graça, roteiro muito ruim atuações horrível efeito prático muito ruim cgi péssimo, personagens sem carisma se fosse para dizer alguma coisa sobre esse filme é que ele é péssimo e não recomenda a ninguém assistir uma coisa ruim com essa um dos piores filmes de terror que eu assisti na minha vida.

Mindless, preposterous, viciously unfunny, cringe worthy on every level. This isn't a love letter to horror fans, this is a dire warning: Don't make horror movies like this if you care about horror movies.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

This movie is wasn't bad, but also not great. Story is actually interesting and the humor is good. Only reason this movie isn't rated higher is because the acting and direction is crap. Like every single person's acting was terrible and unbelievable. And director seems like he let a lot of subpar things pass because he thought he didn't need to try as that's kind of the point of the movie, but it didn't help the movie. If the acting and directing had been better, then this movie would have totally hit all cylinders as a quirky, meta horror movie. I will say, Zachary Levi's cameo was pretty fun.

I watched this because someone online said it was better than "Hellfest," and I think they were right! I don't understand the low ratings at all. I think this is a great Halloween movie!

(I'm Mistletoe Virus I'm saying I love! this movie!) Blood Fest is a horror-comedy which can be filed under the meta movie bracket. celebration of the horror genre. A horror-obsessed teenager goes along to a new horror-themed festival called Blood Fest with his two pals. When there, it becomes quickly apparent that the horror is real and the attendees become the prey of the killers who run the place. chainsaw killers, killer clowns, a hillbilly psycho, sexy vampires!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

A fairly fun movie that doesn't try too hard to be funny or edgy. Unrelatable motives from the antagonist side that led to a horribly dissatisfying ending but overall, worth the time of watching.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars
