Very Cool!!!

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Neophyte director Jeremiah Buckhalt has crafted an auspicious debut with "Blood Widow." This movie has a plethora of delightful kills, all brought to you by the hands of a very capable and, dare I say, quite beautiful killer. The main draw here is the Widow. She is like something out of a baroque masterpiece from hell. I know I will be seeing her doll-like face in my nightmares for some time to come.In addition to the widow's frightening visage, Buckhalt has created a slasher film with quite a droll sense of humor. Jose Miguel Vasquez's Mark in particular delivers quite a few bon mots in the early going. His repartee with Kenneth in the early going is particularly funny.The film's superb third act, however, leaves humor by the wayside as things get deadly serious. The final fight is one of the most intense I've seen in some time, it is certainly not for the squeamish.There were certainly a few flaws, and I won't restrain from sharing my minor quibbles. There are, as in many lower budget films, some audio issues. The music in the second act's party scene didn't quite seem to be what the characters would have partied to in my opinion.All in all, I had a really good time and look forward to Buckhalt unleashes next.

The ending was brilliant in my opinion and the gore was the good gore done right, descent screen play and cast with a good director. I'm hoping it becomes a franchise with several sequels. I'm a slasher fanatic and this was the best one I've seen in awhile. The moments where certain characters hesitate seem so real and the dialog genuine. The killer was cool. I do wish they had chosen a better title. To me this is what horror is suppose to be. I love slasher movies and will try watching all of them and wow so many bad ones get made but every once in awhile I find one the hits the mark. For me the most important things in a slasher film are a cool killer, high body count, a cast that gives it their all and on screen kills that either make you cringe or think that was bloody awesome.When it comes to direct to DVD indie slasher films I don't expect a stellar cast with an amazing storyline, if it had been so it would of got pushed into theaters. I look for new slasher films to watch on a regular basis and after trying 20 or so unwatchable ones I was very happy that I came across this one.

First of all i knew where i was going with this movie and i didn't expect much from it..It starts really slow,the characters seemed like they were just got picked from the street and the script was awful!!I thought while i watched this 'is there anything more interesting to do'?My nails maybe??The good part was the blood widow!!I mean she was scary and creepy and deserved a better movie to start in..seriously now!I didn't get why she became a killer,i tried but i got confused because this girl had major issues!!The leading lady was boring and uninteresting and i already said my opinion about the rest of the cast,in other words avoid this unless you have nothing else to do!

If I had a dollar for every time an indie horror movie impressed me I'd be broke as a hobo. But occasionally there are small productions which have these small little bits that give a spark of light in the dark tunnel.Black Widow is one of those movies. It takes me back to the classic horror productions and their, at that time, amazing special effects. I wasn't particularly impressed with the gore factor, neither was the story that interesting. I'm no professional critic but the poor acting and bad script will be obvious to everyone who watches this movie. The music left me with a headache to be honest. I don't really think acid trance (at least that's what I think it is) fits into the introduced bunch especially this year. Even I've made better songs than that.We are introduced with the typical roster of characters which fits into the classic 80's horror picture. Annoying, inexperienced and even stereotypically predefined, who make stupid choices and mistakes under the influence of alcohol and drugs, which in itself leads to s**t hitting the fan. We get presented with one boring and poorly executed death after another. By the last minutes of the movie I was actually cheering for the antagonist, which finally leads me to the only speck of bright light in a very dark tunnel.The Black Widow herself is an amazingly well designed character. Aside from the bad way her kills were managed, the persona has the potential to be one of the most evil and sinister villains in movies and/or TV. Maybe it's just my personal fascination with masks, but I'd put her right next to The Collector. The Black Widow needs to be handled in a more professional way, she needs a better background story, a better reason to do what she does and more toys to use. That's what it would've taken for this movie to impress me.Bottom line is the movie is worth having a few laughs over a bottle of beer on a Saturday night if you have nothing else to do. And the only piece of eye candy would be the real main character in the movie, The Black Widow.
