Forest of the Damned plot

"Thrown out of Heaven... They'll take you to Hell..."

The myth goes that in the heart of 'Miranda Forest' dwell magnificent creatures who were once angels. Cast out of heaven after being infected by human emotions, lust and sexual desires, they seduce unsuspecting victims and then gruesomely kill them. However, six teens discover that it's more than just a myth.

Fans of easy horror entertainment may be pleased with the fact that the last fifteen minutes of Forest of the Damned consist of behind-the-scenes footage (and can therefore be skipped), but for now they will have to get through the first 80 minutes . Director Johannes Roberts moved away from the unstructured, experimental approaches a year after his previous horror projects and now comes with a more direct story, but the end result nevertheless remains very broken. The bare visual content in particular kills the atmosphere, but the horror concepts are also mediocre. In any case, the strange amount of nudity indicates that the makers may have simply wanted to stare at naked women, because the sirens and/or angels (the terms are constantly contradicted) hardly add anything to the final story. In between there is also a completely random side plot with a bunch of rednecks (including Tom Savini), but the different ideas never merge into a coherent whole. The cast members seem to make a sincere effort to make a good film and for that I award half a point extra, but it is clear that Roberts is a director who grew per film and had to start at the absolute bottom.
