V.A. Musetto New York Post The flick is so vile and misogynistic -- the women exist solely to titillate -- that even perverts will have a tough time. Rated: 0.5/4 Jun 27, 2008 Full Review Laura Kern New York Times It's not the water that menaces in Wicked Lake, an inept, nasty and absolutely irredeemable entry in the stale torture-porn subgenre of horror. Rated: .5/5 Jun 27, 2008 Full Review Aaron Hillis Village Voice As tamely unerotic as a straight-to-video Misty Mundae softcore spoof... Wicked Lake proves that even Troma can outclass some.

Audience Member Home movie tripe with the guy from Chop. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Weird, gory, entertaining. Sort of the reverse of a backwoods slasher film, where the victims are the backwoods slashers, and you find yourself rooting for the lesbian vampire witches. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member couldn't make it through. horrible acting, terrible sound, cheesy, and an attempt to make fantasies into reality gone so wrong, boring. nothing good about this. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Only explanation for piece of fucking garbage movie making is, What were they thinking??!?!??!?! This movie is revolting and disturbing you. You may think this movie is amazing because you say the trailer, but no the soundtrack is terrible and the only song that stands out is Radar Love by Ministry. Besides the terrible soundtrack is that more than half the movie is the guys are trying to strip the girls in the most messed up way. The gore is vile, and the girls comeback was awful. The end just disturbed me a good guy got his face blow off by a shotgun. This movie just made me think what have I could done with my time? So final analysis DO NOT WATCH THIS MOVIE ITS FUCKING TERRIBLE! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Four young, well-endowed hotties rent a cabin in Hicksville, USA where they've been followed by a group of morons consisting of an ultra-feminine art student, a mentally challenged (?) pervert, a geriatric war veteran in a wheelchair, and their sadistic ringleader. Also hot on the girls' tails are a couple of greasy, dirty, toothless country bumpkins whose most impassioned lines are, "God damned city bitches!" Let me not forget to mention two detectives who are pursuing the damsels in distress. Only they're not damsels in distress. At the stroke of midnight, they transform into bloodthirsty demons - bloodthirsty lesbian demons. This is... one of the worst I have ever seen and I have watched some major stinkers. Unfortunately, not even all of the T&A could save Wicked Lake. The tone of the film is constantly changing and confusing for the viewer. Am I supposed to laugh? Is this character to be taken seriously? Much of the movie looks like it was shot with a camcorder, the dialog made my ears numb, and the acting is deplorable. I live for B-movie horror and low-budget amateur efforts so I've made it a habit to overlook sub-par acting but, in this case, it's so bad that it's unforgivable. Even worse, when they're not 'acting', they're zoning off, unresponsive to anything that's happening with the rest of the characters. It's a complete mess. I'm irritated that I wasted 95 minutes of my life on this cinematic piece of excrement. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member I hated the cover art to the DVD. What was supposed to be provocative is a badly photo-shopped mess. Shoulder deep in blood stained water, a nondescript actress with pouty lips tries her best to look evil. I suppose floating underneath a blue sky filled with white puffy clouds is supposed to contrast her rather ineffectual evil stare, but it just comes off as amateurish. What's intersting about what appears to be "red-eye" (and a sure sign of bad photography) was it's actually an intended effect, but it only reinforces how talentlessly this cover art was created. Blase' as the DVD cover is, it's still manages to be quite superior to the film itself. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/28/23 Full Review Read all reviews
