All opinions are my own. We are all different. What I may think is great, you may this terrible. Don't let my opinios stop you from exploring the vast world of horror in all media.

~Mind Blowing: Search for this movie immediately. It can only be described as pure greatness and possible an instant classic.

~So Good: Highly recommended because for one reason or another it stands out above the usual fair. Put the movie on your radar as it wont disappoint.

~In the Middle: The movie is a nothing special, average affair. It may entertain in the short term but it will be easily forgettable in the long haul.

Death Weekend (1976)

AKA: House By the Lake

Starring: Brenda Vaccaro, Don Stroud
Director: William Fruet

Synopsis:
A rich dentist and a model go to his country house for the weekend. They get piss off some local guys in a drag racing contest. The gang follows them and torment begins.

My Take:
The movie rather boring compared to modern standards in the home invasion sub-genre. A lot of bullying by the over the top villains.

Rating: Warning
