Bollcrap? #2: Blackwoods (2001)

Uwe Boll directs a anti-drunk driving campaign dressed up as a psychological horror/thriller complete with rowdy rednecks. I actually quite enjoyed this, sure its a little messy and the acting is not that good but it was certainly fun.
The plot concerns a guy traveling to the Blackwoods with his girlfriend to meet her family for the first time, however things seem a little strange and we get flashes to something that may have happened in the past, so there's some intrigue and mystery that's all pretty easy to solve but still interesting to see unravel throughout the film with its little fun twists. The film is also quite well shot with some pretty good cinematography though there is a slight overuse of slow shutter speed shots. Overall the film is entertaining and runs at a good pace and I had a fun time watching it. ***
