Garbage, with a capital "G". My cat uses this for a pan line

"Folks, heres a friendly piece of advice, Save your cash! If you're gonna rent it, make sure someone else buys. This filmed sucked on so many different levels I don't even know where to begin. So I guess I'll start with the fact that its a rehash of any other slasher movies. Five kids on their way to a concert run out of gas near an old abandon farmstead. Then get picked off one by one, by a 'killer'. The gore in this film in nil, any blood spilt looked like red paint and the extent of this was puddles on the ground, splashes or sprays on the wall. The Budget wasn't there on this part of the film.

Ok, so almost an hour of this 81 minute turkey is spent putzing around the farmstead looking for the kid they sent to get more gas. Bad acting, no no, horrible acting with a horrible script make this crudely shot movie almost unbearable. To make things worse, there is almost no music soundtrack to add to the suspense.

Its apparent to me that the bulk of the budget was spent on camera equipment and editing. Location is almost entirely on the farmstead, most likely donated from a friend. This whole movie screams college film school project.

What made this film laughable was that the killer guy was such a light weight! the two surviving girls escape his clutches several times, and even manage to knock him out quite easily. The other thing I found humerous, was that all the actors were canadian, you didn't know it until they had to say "house", "out", or "about", then it was hoose, oot and aboot! fantastic!

Bottom Line: Don't waste your time, you'd probably have a better time watching grass grow."

WASTE OF MONEY!

"I bought this movie used at the video store - what a TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY! I wouldn't even give it 1 star - it deserves none! I buy alot of horror and scary movies and this is NOT one of them.

1. The actors/actresses were very "fake" and simply had NO acting skills whatsoever! Where did they find them?

2. The movie looked very low budget and filmed with a home video camera.

3. I would not pay $1 for this movie.

4. The only thing they spent money on was the video cover.

5. If you buy this movie, don't say I didn't warn you!

0 STARS: PURE GARBAGE!!

""Dark Fields" follows a typical slasher-flick formula, but the movie is so cheaply made and poorly acted that the movie comes off like a total joke! I actually sat through this entire piece of rubbish (thank goodness I saw it for free), and I can honestly say that this is a total waste of your time. If you are serious about your horror movies, you definitely need to stay clear of this kind of garbage. The direction, screenplay and acting in this movie are some of the worst I've ever seen and ranks up there with "Tower of Blood" as some of the worst slasher flicks I've ever seen...another sad day for the horror genre when this rubbish was made. By the way, some of the actors in this flick need to go buy some oxy or clearasil. Oh well, I keep looking for a diamnond in the rough, but all I seem to find is trash like this. Notwithstanding this kind of garbage, Horror-man's search continues...."

Not the worst movie ever made...close maybe

"To be the worst movie ever made, a film has to be so bad that it's laughable. This was not laughable. Dark Fields was very bad it's true, but it was watchable if you're bored enough. Yes the killer was pretty weak and how easily the two girls kept escaping was silly. They should have just turned on him, beat the crap out of him as they were certainly capable of and moved on. A lot of people got killed in this film by a pretty wimpy villain. I give this movie 2 stars only because I read the other 9 reviews done before mine and WOW!!! I had to take the oppurtunity to be the highest rating of a film ever... This may be the worst HORROR movie every made and that takes quite a bit of doing as there are some bad ones out there. So the bottom line here is that every reviewer who gave this film only one star is right on. Combine bad acting, a low budget and a silly plot and this is what you get. However, I did find the out-takes during the credits somewhat humorous...Probably better than the movie. That's what I should have done. Skipped the movie and just gone to the somewhat entertaining closing credits. What was I thinking?"
