BLOOD REDD is an indie horror film absolutely nothing like the video cover or indeed synopsis. This looks like a werewolf horror movie, but instead it's just a bunch of characters who spend the entire running time wandering around a single house. The interacting actors seem bored throughout, and it's hard to blame them; there's no meat or interest in the story here. One gruesome death scene is all that's on offer.

Nothing like the cover or synopsis suggests
Be careful what you wish for ...
Remember: This is a low budget movie and you should give the movie some slack. Especially at the beginning, it might take you some time to accept what this is. Or the characters in it. One in particular is so cliché it might hurt you watching this. Not as much hurting though as is going to happen to people involved in this.
It might not be the best special effects, it might not have the best camera and some of the acting is way off. The script and direction has its flaws too of course. But I and some of the reviewers here are giving it the benefit of the doubt. It tries to tell a story and it does a decent job. Only if you give way as mentioned before. Not a masterpiece by a mile
Vegetarian werewolves!
Lauren, a high school nerdy type girl, apparently suffers from a disease passed down through her mother's family that means should she ever consume meat then she will become a werewolf for the remainder of her life and crave blood every Full Moon. So the only way to avoid this is to be a strict vegetarian! Well, it's inventive, I'll grant the film makers that! Needless to say she does become one, otherwise we wouldn't have much of a story. Stephanie Hullar does play the part well. Sadly the same can't be said for most of the cast, we have some really wooden acting here. It's also incredibly boring at times, with a few bits of gore thrown in to keep us awake. Very predictable. Pay no attention to the dubious high scoring reviews on here. I made this my first film of 2018. Bad choice!
