I should also mention that it’s equal parts action-drama as it is horror. Lake Fear 3: Origin of Evil has a sinister atmosphere, truly unexpected turns, and buckets of blood that are all guaranteed to keep you entertained. It’s the type of movie that invites you to turn your brain off to the stressful world around you, grab a few beers, and enjoy an hour and a half of attractive people running from and fighting against swampy monsters and otherworldly parasites. It’s good, old fashioned indie horror at its best. That’s probably my favorite thing about Lake Fear 3: Origin of Evil. In terms of story and level of horror, both elements are definitely there… but I was having way to much fun to be engrossed and scared. Props to producers Richard Blake and Joshua Winch, and everyone else at MGI Productions for putting together a worthwhile movie. And the icing on the cake is that the actors are just as talented as the crew. The digital effects are SyFy movie quality and the practical special effects are just the right style and execution for a movie of this caliber. The audio is crystal clear though it is a little over-produced. The camera work is so much better and the lighting at night is near perfect. It’s no wonder outside companies are eager to get Lake Fear 3 out to the public. Major props for putting together a capable crew, and bettering your skills as a film-maker, because the the hard work has certainly payed off. If I compare this movie to their previous one, Anna, I have to say that the production value has gone way up. Lake Fear 3: Origin of Evil was written by Gerald Crum and directed by Michael Crum with both men handling the editing duties after principal photography finished under cinematographer Daniel Frank. The Thing meets Evil Dead, Lake Fear 3: Origin of Evil also stars Joshua Winch, Vandi Clark and John Zetty. During this mission, the trio inadvertently stumbles upon the town’s biggest, wettest urban legend… and it’s hungry for human flesh. Coincidentally, they cross paths with a wannabe television medium, Vincent (Devi Khajishvili), who promises to help discover the other woman’s whereabouts. In this installment, Revel (Shanon Snedden) and her best friend Chloe (Katelynn Newberry) are desperately searching for Revel’s missing sister Jordan from Lake Fear. Luckily, Lake Fear 3 is pretty easy to follow considering it’s a direct sequel to Lake Fear. Discovering their resume so late in the game, I was nervous about reviewing Lake Fear 3: Origin of Evil since I’d never seen 2014’s Lake Fear or 2016’s Lake Fear 2: The Swamp. I first became aware of the team at MGI Productions after receiving a screener of their previous film, a horror-comedy titled Anna, and finding it to be a well-rounded film in terms of production value and content. Lake Fear 3: Origin of Evil is a new film from MGI Productions that is slated for release through ITN Distribution later this year.
