Wicked Lake is a 2008 American slasher film directed by Michael Thomas Daniel, starring Carlee Baker, Eryn Joslyn, Eve Mauro, Robin Sydney, Michael Esparza, J.D. Brown, Will Keenan and Tim Thomerson.
Four seemingly innocent women take a trip to a lake house for the weekend. They are followed by deranged men who kidnap and sexually torture them. At the stroke of midnight it is revealed that the women are in fact witches and they begin to get their revenge on the men.
Johnny Butane of Dread Central rated the film 3.5 stars out of 5 and called the film "pretty damn fun". [1]
Laura Kern of The New York Times called the film an "inept, nasty and absolutely irredeemable entry in the stale torture-porn subgenre of horror that more often than not features bloodthirsty clans residing in the backwoods." [2]
Joe Leydon of Variety called the film a "laughably inept mix of softcore sexploitation and full-bore torture porn". [3]
Aaron Hillis of The Village Voice wrote, "So unimaginatively cheapjack that a rapist has to be told of his vivisection in close-up since there wasn't the budget to actually show it, Wicked Lake proves that even Troma can outclass some." [4]
