forest of the damned start out a five young friend and brother and sister emilio ( richard cambridge ) and ally ( sophie holland ) along with judd ( daniel maclagan ) and molly ( nicole petty ) and andrew ( david hood ) and set off on a week long holiday in the middle of nowhere and their word not mine . anyway and before they know it theyre deep in a forest and emilio clumsily run over a woman ( france da costa ) and along with a badly injured person to add to their problem the van theyre travelling in would not start and they can not get any signal on their mobile phone . they need to find help quickly so molly and judd wander off in the hope of find a house and a time go by and darkness begin to fall it become clear that they be not alone and that there be something nasty lurking in the wood . this english production be write and direct by johannes robert and have look over several other comment and review both here on the imdb and across the internet forest of the damned seem to divide opinion with some like it and other not and personally it do not do much for at all . the script be credit on screen to robert but here on the imdb it list joseph london with additional screenplay material whatever that mean and the film be your basic backwoods slasher type thing like the texas chainsaw massacre ( 1974 ) with your basic stranded faceless teenage victim be bump off but use the interesting concept of fall angel who roam the forest and kill people for reason that be never explain to any great deal of satisfaction . then there stephen and play by the ever fantastic tom savini and who be never give any sort of justification for what he do . be he there to get victim for the angel . if so why do he kill andrew by bash his head in . the story be very loose and it never felt like a proper film . the character be poor and the dialogue not much well and the lack of any significant story make it hard to get into it or care about anything that go on . have say that it move along at a reasonable pace and there be a couple of decent scene here . director johannes doesn not do anything special and it not a particularly stylish or flash film to look at . there a few decent horror scene and the tom savini character be great whenever he on screen ( although why do not he hear judd break the door down with an axe while escape with molly . ) and it a shame when he get kill off . there be a couple of decent gore scene here and someone have their head bash in and there a decapitation and someone get shotgun blast and someone throat be bite out and someone lip be bite off and someone be rip in half . there be also a fair amount of full frontal female nudity and not that it help much . technically forest of the damn be ok and it reasonably well make but nothing overly special or eye catching . this be shoot in england and wale and it quite odd to see an english setting for a very american theme backwards horror . the acting be generally pretty poor save for savini who deserve to be in good than this . horror author shaun hutson have an embarrassing cameo at the end and prove he should stick to write rather than act . forest of the damn be a pretty poor horror film and it seem to have fan out there so maybe i be miss something but it not a film i have much fondness for . apart from one or two decent moment there not much here to recommend .
