Trailer—Blood Beat

Blood Beat exists in that strange, rarely charted territory between art film and slasher flick. It has the gory goods, but it also wants to do something different with the slasher formula and say something about psychic connections and female power. I'm not sure if it's very successful with that, but I can pay Blood Beat one of the greatest compliments any film can get - I've never seen anything else like it.

Ahhh, the hilarity of it all! What a weird movie. Just the linking in storyline of deer hunting, a samurai, a neurotic painter, a visiting girlfriend with an * problem. A treat to watch, very original and very cheesy, especially during the poltergeist effects. Well worth the full watch.

Its not even so bad its good its so bad is awful. Its weird you don't understand most of it, where does the Japanese samurai killer come from killing all those red necks.. 2 women have psychic powers ? And you got some bad sex between it all. The FX are terrible and you don't see the samurai only is arm.

Just watched this flick and I was thinking, what did I see. I noticed on the net that this is still an OOP and people are searching to find this mysterious flick. It's a bit of supernatural combined with horror. But it is all filmed with weird effects and weird story lines. It all starts off pretty well by getting to know the characters. A supernatural mother gets a weird feeling by seeing the girlfriend of her son. But after a while we get knowing that they all are supernatural and some samurai is hunting the forest and their house. Sometimes it made me remind of the original Boogeyman. The effects I mean. Sure it is a low budget flick. The mother and the girlfriend are believable. That makes the movie watchable. I never understood why masturbating of the girlfriend was so important concerning the samurai. Couldn't get the plot of the movie neither. Anyway, I got my copy on DVD-R and I'm glad I've got one, a weird one to watch, bloody weird.

BLOOD BEAT (1983) is a strange and low budget slice of supernatural horror hailing from rural Wisconsin. It was released straight-to-video and I remember owning the old chunky pre-certificate VHS tape back in the day. These days, it can be viewed (in high def!) on Amazon Prime. The story involves a group of characters holing up at a remote farmhouse for a hunting trip, only to encounter the spirit of a vengeful samurai warrior intent on slice them up with his katana... The promise is certainly an engaging one but it's the execution where this one falters. Very little happens for the first two-thirds, apart from a little atmosphere building. I was put off by the extremely amateur performances from the main cast members, there are no good actors here! Once the spirit shows up it all starts to kick off and get more interesting, building to an effects-fuelled climax that works to a moderate degree.

You could call Blood Beat a slasher film, but that would be too easy. It might have all the trappings of one (mostly one secluded location, a sword twirling villain, a decent body count), but it marches to the beat of its own wonky drummer. I'm not saying Blood Beat is good, but nothing this unique and odd can be totally bad. I was riveted from start to finish, so it must have done something right. Mostly, I just couldn't believe my eyes. I found it all rather well shot and appealing looking and the addition of a Japanese samurai as a villain is certainly not something you see a lot of. There's also an incredibly odd sequence (in this movie? Shocker!) where a young woman's * seems to beacon the killer to her location. It sorta felt like a similar moment in High Tension. Blood Beat is a hard one to recommend, because everyone's threshold for strange, artsy trash is different, but it's worth giving a shot. You might enjoy it.

When i used to live in a crappy room in a crappy flat in London, me and my girlfriend (now my wife) sat down to watch this video (which my mate picked up in a cheap cash exchange shop) one lazy Sunday afternoon. We both really enjoyed this minimal but captivating little tale, but i have no idea why and still find it hard pushed to find a reason to recommend it. Might make a good double-bill with the equally diverting NINJA 3: THE DOMINATION.

I was quite surprised by this movie. Obviously it was made with no money at all, but acting, photography, editing and story are well done. Proves once more you can do an entertaining movie with very little. "Blood Beat" owes a bit to "Poltergeist", "Witchboard" and "The Shining" maybe, but has a good storyline of its own about the ghost of evil (dressed up as a samurai warrior, also incarnated in one young lady) against a family whose members seem to have a certain talent for (good) magic. The special FX to show the magic (red powerlines vs blue powerlines) look ridiculous by today's standards, but hey, this is just a cheap little horror movie to waste a Sunday afternoon with, okay? The movie has a couple of memorable scenes (e.g. the samurai slaying the older woman, while the possessed young lady is getting more and more "excited", I thought the rapid cutting was breathtaking). If you see a copy on a probably dusty shelf, give it a try, as the video tape will be cheap I bet.

A family with a few secrets of their own are terrorized by the spectre of a Japanese samurai warrior at their home deep in the woods.People begin to die,some by sword,some by arrow before mother's two kids step in and dispatch the sword-wielding samurai with their newfound magical power."Blood Beat" is a strangely fascinating film to watch.It has tons of flaws:confusing plot,lousy sound and cheap optical effects that made me laugh.There is some nudity and gore(knives entering bodies,a bloody stomach and neck wound)to keep your mind briefly occupied,but I'm still trying to understand this bizarre supernatural slasher.Wish me good luck.6 out of 10.
