A group of unhinged party animals embark on a weekend trip filled with Jet Skis, a keg of Busch, and a drunken game of quarters. But look out! There’s a supernatural killer on the loose…

Shot on video by real-life friends and family members, BLOOD LAKE is a wonderfully evocative collision of ’80s slasher and home movie mayhem. Filmed by DIY director Tim Boggs and producer, writer, and co-star Doug Barry in Southwestern Oklahoma, BLOOD LAKE’s regional horror highlights include adolescent horn-dog Lil’ Tony, the perpetual threat of an ass kickin’, real beer on set, heavy metal tracks, and an act of god.

“BLOOD LAKE is not just a movie, it’s an experience. It is the greatest vacation that you didn’t actually take, caught on camera.”

Richard Mogg, Analogue Nightmares
