The Redwood Massacre
6 July 2017
If you go down to the woods today, you'll get the distinct feeling you've been to this particular one before. Redwoods grow in California, but this Redwood is not a tree, rather it is a house in the highlands of Scotland, unless American actors have peculiar accents nowadays. You guessed it, a mixed group of youngsters chased by a masked fiend. Films of this nature have also been made in Australia; doubtless they could be made in Africa, China and many other places too, but instead of exporting it to the rest of the world it would be best to admit this is a genre that has been played out one time too many and then some, and is a long way past its sell by date.

As you might expect there is no real plot, although there is a legend of sorts. If it scores one point for the music and one for the special effects, two sounds too much. The ending is too stupid to comment on. If you have anything more productive to do for the rest of your life, don't watch this rubbish.
