Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Chris Mulkey was not in this movie (I don't think) but it was really okay anyways. The musics were really good and there were scenes where people drank. I love to drink! That was awesome! (Especially that part in the back of the picking up truck). I really felt the suspense because I felt like I was there? In the woods with the people. I would like to have more friends like this because I'm in a wheelchair :( Why did the park ranger know the reaper????? fpo!I loved the twist on the end because as it so turns out, there was actually no twist. Usually I'm expecting a twist but no such thing happened--although getting killed by a shovel WAS an ironic fate for the "blood reaper". If my dad was an actor, maybe he would be able to be in the movie too because there were dad's in this movie. No Chris Mulkey though; I wish he were my dad.

Blood Reaper (2003) is another crappy shot-on-digital-video movie that's stocked regularly at a local video chain store. I don't know why they stock these type of movies. They're plain terrible and for the most part unwatchable. I wish these films would just disappear from the face of the Earth. I wouldn't lose a wink of sleep if they did.This "film" is about a gas masked serial killer (swiped from one of my 80's favorites My Bloody Valentine) who stalks fishermen and drunk "kids" who are stupid enough to camp is a very dry and polluted section of forest. The cast is largely unattractive and can't act a lick. The filmmakers must have spent most of the alloted budget on casting Brinke Stevens (Her best years have long since past). They sure get there money's worth from Ms. Stevens.A movie like this doesn't have to be so lame. All you need is a decent script, a couple of actors who can act and a competent director. Alas this film has neither. The cast wears tight pants, the lighting is poor at best and the editing is pitiful. Worst of all the pacing needs to be worked on big time. The movie is a little over 70 minutes (which is the bare minimum to be considered a feature length film) but it felt like a three hour epic (that's bad). Even though the film has a short running time, the film is heavily padded.If you come across this movie in the video store run away. It's not worth the time and effort to actually sit and watch this lame attempt at film-making. There's no hot women, no gory set pieces and no fun. Do yourself a favor and get an older movie instead.

The film is just that- an exercise in horror. Poorly executed, sure, but this is technically a film. I commend the filmmakers that they got a crew and cast together and finished this, but, it's just of the worst quality. We've seen it all before. And it's like it was shot with a $300 consumer miniDV camera. What I did enjoy, I really enjoyed- the creepy horror music and the DVD case- they both get A's. The campfire scene with the country singer was strange. The 'waking up and the killer is sitting outside' was weird. So was the scene with the director as sheriff walking through the forest with the reaper creeping around. The sped up footage of the woman getting in the boat (verged on Benny Hill territory there). And the creeper's shack... I could go on and on. This film is an inspiration to would-be horror auteur's because you too can pull off something like this.No doubt this gave the cast/crew a couple weekends of fun to pull off, but it needs to be better all around.

Like the exploitation gore flicks of the 70s and 80s that we all loved, this one takes itself seriously as well it should. Kids are camping. Why? Because kids go camping. They want to.A slasher is in the woods. Why? Because slashers live in the woods. They want to.Watching this movie brought back fond memories of my childhood staying up late at night in a sleeping bag on the floor with potato chips and popcorn in the dark watching old gore flicks that I had rented.Back then they were scary and in your face. Watching those old ones again now would probably cause me to break out laughing. Blood Reaper is no different. Sure, there may be some funny parts, but for the most part this is good solid horror from Unstoppable Pacific Productions. I look forward to future releases from this company.
