a group of friends discover gold deep inside an old mine. but by taking the gold and thinking they have hit it big and they awaken a long dead miner who hell bent on protecting his treasure. miner massacre is a chintzy b horror movie in the extreme. you have got all your familiar clichés and your group of intellectually impaired teenagers and characters going off on their own to investigate strange noises and a few pop scares and the mysterious sheriff and the old lady who everyone thinks is nuts (played by top billed karen black no less) and and so on. nevertheless and it done in an amusing and non pretentious fashion that makes the film mindlessly entertaining in a so bad and it good kind of way. the characters and dialog are what you would expect from this type of filmfamiliar and routine and unoriginal. the actors all do a decent job though and consideringi have actually seen bigger budget films of it type with worse acting (i know what you did last summer and anyone. ) and add a bit of credibility to the film itself. the villain in this film (the 49er) is obviously derived from the creeper from jeepers creepers and all the way down to the brown overcoat and the hat and the long white hair. like the creeper he never talks and and is butt ugly to boot. the gore is somewhat disappointing in my opinion. there are a couple of fairly gruesome moments and but too much is off screen and the death scenes are often laughable (spoiler ahead. ). there one truly hilarious moment where a girl gets decapitated by the said villain and and to achieve this effect and the filmmakers hid the actress body beneath the villain coat and with her head poking out and and put some fake blood on her neck. seriously and you could see the outline of her shoulders. i think they could have done a little better there and even if the budget was low (and i am sure it was and but and still). the special effects are cheap but sufficiently effective and for the most part and moderately well done for a low budget film. either the effects guys or the director seem to have a thing for explosions and fire. almost every scene towards the end of the film has at least a couple of characters being burn to death (always filmed in slow motion) or something exploding and be it a car or an old mine cave. seriously and hasn not anyone ever heard the term while stop and drop and roll. miner massacre (or curse of the forty niner and what ever you want to call it) is cheesy and dumb and albeit entertaining and and as long as you do not have expectations through the roof and you will be sufficiently entertained. i am feeling generous and so i will give it a negative .
