Product Description

Loaded with gore, bloody torture and one of the most daringly shocking scenes ever filmed, Carver is the ultimate tale of terror. In exchange for free drinks, five twenty-somethings on holiday at a secluded campground agree to help out the town tavern owner. This leads the group to the barkeep's eerie shack where curiosity gets the better of them and they ransack a chest full of old 8mm slasher movies. Unaware that these flicks are actually gut-wrenching snuff films, the quintet unwittingly become the newest stars in the sinister exploits of a deranged psycho killer.

5.0 out of 5 stars GORE AND PLENTY OF IT 28 Dec 2009
Format:DVD
What a film, totally loved it. As a hardened horror fan, I've seen my share of slashers, good and bad and this is definately one I'll be watching again. The violence was brutal to say the least, I cringed more times than I care to remember. I was still thinking about certain parts of the film long after it ended. Credit to the director for producing this little gem, one that will remain in my collection for a very long time to come.

3.0 out of 5 stars Cheap, But Cheerful.... 23 Feb 2011
Format:DVD
....& I mean cheap. No, really, this one was done on the CHEAP; & if you're reading a review for a film like Carver, it's probably fair to say you've seen your share of zero budget trash. This one has lower production values than all of them.
BUT...you know those films that claim to be throwbacks to the time of late seventies / early eighties old school horror? The stuff that got Graham Bright & Mary Whitehouse so hot under the collar? Well, for once, this one lives up to that claim, (&, let's face it, those original films often had terrible production values).

It's sick, twisted, gory fun (&, if you're male, one scene is guaranteed to make you wince!), & its attention to genre detail lends it more charm than it probably deserves. At the very least; it's a film that does what it says on the tin!

I'd kind of cautiously recommend it, but only to the most tolerant & dedicated genre fans out there.

3.0 out of 5 stars That's what you call a cheap Vasectomy !! 20 Aug 2008
Format:DVD
Was told by a friend to view this good little horror film. Covers old ground, TCM, HHEyes, Hostel etc... but hey, dont they all these days. 5 twenty-something go camping in the hills, take wrong journey, and decide to help out in an old shack, well bar, to get free drinks. Curosity killed the cat !!

What you have here, is not a bad little film. If you love your gore, torture and plenty of gooo, this one is for you ! I have to say, there is one part in the film that surprised me that the Sensors passed it !! We watch the old Video nasties, and wonder what all the fuss was about now, but this particular scene is very painful and for some will find it uncomfortable viewing; wont give the scene away.

For the reviewist who only gave it 1 star and stated that it is all cheap special effects, I dont know what you were watching ??? The only fault of this film, is it is not fast paced, somewhat a little slow at the beginning, but once the guy goes into the outside toilet the second time, that's where the film really picks up.

Because Amazon was selling this film at half price, that is why I purchased it. For those with a stronger stomach, give this ago, yawn the first half an hour, but get a bag the second half.

Beer tankard a big salute !!
