VOODOO RISING is the usual 'teens in the woods' horror outing, shot on video on Ohio this time around. Half of the short running time is over before anything even happens and until that point the viewer is stuck with lots of introductory footage and annoying characters hanging around in tents and the like. When the horror content does get featured, it's very tame and non-suspenseful with evil-doers lurking around and the like. There's some mild violence at the climax and that's it. Overall, VOODOO RISING is bland, derivative, and half-baked.

During a full moon with Mercury in retro, a group of young adults opt to go camping in the Black Hills of Garfield, Ohio. They meet hillbilly rednecks with a mentally handicapped son who kills women. And there is that voodoo thing which doesn't play much as a part as the title might suggest.
Amateur film. Poorly scripted. Camp acting. Camera was like ABC sports, it covers it from every angle but a good one. This is a me-too slasher film. Even the sound was off at times.
Guide: F-word. Implied sex. No nudity.

One girl goes off into the woods with a sheriff to do him a favor to get out of a ticket. Comes back to the car and say you know I like a man in uniform. 5 minutes later she's putting down men for even trying to hook up with her friend.
The gay dude runs into a weirdo guy in the woods twice, but never think to tell anyone.
High school drama club could have written better!
