If there were any emotions gotten out of The Legend of Bloody Jack it was of jaw-dropping shock and frustration, and I still have the bruise on my forehead from taking it out on my bedroom wall. The Legend of Bloody Jack is one of those movies that is total ineptitude in every single way possible, and the bad news is that it is not even funny, everything is just too amateurish and not-even-trying like that getting through it was a struggle. If there was a list for the worst-looking movies of the last 15 years, The Legend of Bloody Jack would be on there and quite high up, the whole movie looks very frenzied with dim lighting, simplistic settings and lousy doesn't describe the badness of the special effects enough. The soundtrack is repetitive, awkwardly mixed and quite stock, there is no atmosphere at all to it and sometimes it sounds like it was composed with another movie in mind. The script is childish, cheesy and stilted and not just slightly but to alarming degrees, one of the worst in recent memory, and it seems as though the actors were really struggling to get any value out of it. Because the acting is just as bad, perhaps even worse, no believability, no commitment, no spark, much of it is annoying attempts of smart-ass talk, mumbled line delivery and the looks of "I want to go home". The characters are just moronic in what they say, act and do and not in an endearing way at all, they are just stereotypical and irritating. The killer exudes little menace and the movie makes an even bigger mistake of not telling us anything about him. The slasher elements are gory but in a very cheap way and have no tension to them, instead there is a sense of been-there-done-that and real indifference. The story is completely lifeless and predictable, and the horror, suspense, thriller and fun elements are literally non-existent here as a result complete with an all-too-easy ending. All in all, hopelessly inept and in a way that is more frustrating than it is funny. 0/10 Bethany Cox

In the Northern region of Alaska, two clowns resurrect Jack,a deceased serial killer, via his heart and incantation. He kills the guy. One would hope that the film was over as it faded to black, but sadly this. Is just a prologue story told by another group of nitwits who're vacationing in the woods. And so the true horror begins. By horror, I mean a soul- crushingly terribly inept movie that will make your brain liquefy and melt out of your ears. There's almost nothing going for this inane, clichéd, red-headed stepchild of a film. And somehow despite all the main female leads going topless, It still ranks amongst the worst films that I've seen streaming on Netflix and that's saying a lot.

I had no expectations other than to be entertained for 90 minutes, and that is exactly what I was.Of course it is campy, of course some of the dialog wasn't perfect, of course the "special effects" were a bit hokey. That is exactly why I enjoyed the movie so much. It is a perfect fit for this genre of a 70's Horror classic.The talent needs to start some where, that goes for the actors and the crew, and what better piece of material to sharpen your skills on than this.I for one look forward to another film from these producers and directors.

Moron and his moron girlfriend conduct some ritual to resurrect the dead, in attempt to prove that the dead can not be brought back to life. Not surprisingly, they do resurrect a dead soul who commences chopping them up with an axe, and the next day some college-aged people are telling the story around a campfire. The guy with the axe turns up and starts hacking up the idiots telling the story. The group calls the cops, the cop sees blood splattered all over and thinks it's a mountain lion(!) and soon after is axed by some deformed killer who may or may not be a ghost.Moronic little splatter movie which was filmed in broad daylight but where several characters are carrying flashlights and talking as though it were the middle of the night, and wanting to send up a signal flare to attract attention. One guy has a gun in one hand and bullets in the other but doesn't bother to load it, then after he finally loads it, he has several opportunities to shoot the killer but doesn't bother to, because that would end the movie too early. Then he throws the gun away! Also detrimental is characters who show no emotion and don't look the least bit concerned after their friends are chopped into pieces, and lousy effects (the human heart looks like a piece of chicken meat, the car blown up at the end clearly was a model car) and awful dialogue and some really ugly female nudity doesn't help. And in the end it tries to get away with its incoherence by saying that it was all the invention of the same college aged people telling campfire stories at the start of this movie. Then the killer turns up for real in the last scene hacks them into pieces. Again.Only good for some unintended laughs.
