jfost75 Review of The Black Water Vampire

The Black Water Vampire (2014)

Just because you CAN make a movie, doesn't mean you SHOULD

[1/10 · 14 October 2020]

This movie is what happens when movie makers become so invested in their own work that they can't see how bad it is. The camera work is nauseatingly awful, the script was written by a child and the sound work was full of cross talk. The story is about your typical dingleberry brunette who hires a few "professional" filmmakers to film a documentary about FOUR murders in her hometown area (where no one knows her) over FORTY years (not exactly a murder spree). I couldn't decide if her motivation was to solve the killings or to prove the man on death row didn't do the killings. Btw, he was barely 40 himself, so unless he was killing and an embryo... This was definitely a poor man's Blair Witch, with the addition of an extra cast member. They even went so far as to make a big deal about a paper map! Who uses those anymore?? The writer of this "movie" didn't waste any energy on trying to be original...or on camera work, or anything else. The only thing this movie offers the viewer is motion sickness and the chance to completelyan waste an hour of their lives.
