I watched this movie back to back with another film from Britain (Dead Meat) and as such as I was with Dead Meat was very impressed with both films. Forest of the Damned was possibly also like the other shot not on film however this film was far superior in the look which was at times most unusual and totally distinct from other such horror films. What the film lacked for me that was the depth in the characters although Tom Savini's role gave the film the dimension it otherwise lacked. Most impressive of this film though were the plentiful gory effects and the demonic angels. The idea behind the film felt new and original although its format (teenagers lost in a wood) was not however the film was not only bloody but at times in the cabin very scary and exciting which one cannot often say for low budget horror.
