Featured review
Lake Eerie was disturbingly quiet and still...
There were two reasons for why I opted to sit down to watch "Lake Eerie". The first reason is, of course, my love and fascination with the horror genre. And the second reason was because iconic actor Lance Henriksen starred in it.
But to my horror, this movie turned out to be unfathomably slow paced and quite boring, to be perfectly honest. And it was quite a struggle to remain seated and actually follow the movie through to the end. I did manage to do so, but were quite tempted to give up a couple of times along the way.
The storyline in "Lake Eerie" wasn't particularly appealing in any sense, and it seemed like a rather monotone script that didn't really translate well onto the screen. And it was further cemented by having one-dimensional characters that were frightfully devoid of any kind of personalities to make you care.
For a horror movie, "Lake Eerie" was disturbingly devoid of anything even remotely scary or reminiscent of anything thrilling to make your heart pump faster. The movie just settled into an almost hypnotic slow pace and never managed to get out of that pace.
As far as the acting went in "Lake Eerie", then I will say that the cast were doing fair enough jobs with the limitations imposed on them through an inadequate script. And not even Lance Henriksen could manage to lift up the movie with his performance.
This is the type of movie that you will watch once, and I doubt that you will ever make a second attempt of watching it again. "Lake Eerie" came and went without leaving any lasting impressions with the audience, nor did it manage to make any kind of dent in the horror genre.
