Reviews:

All Girls Weekend is a female driven story of human verses nature with otherworldy evil lurking on the horizon. Beautifully shot [by William Schweikert], expertly acted and featuring an ever evolving story of suspense, strife and gore, I was impressed. And it has a bear.” Horror Society

” … an enjoyably effective little shocker that might be a little diffuse when it comes to its actual threat (at least until the finale that is), but at the same time it’s a very well-structured story that is brought to life by a subtle directorial effort that gets the most out of its wintery surroundings, and its very colourful cast of fleshed out characters brought to life by a very solid cast of actors…” Search My Trash

 

“The story does seem to have elements of Cabin Fever, Evil Dead and The Descent but this mixed together comes off very well because we get to see the best parts all come through the story… Suspense driven horror that comes off with great effect.” Movie Reviews 101

All Girls Weekend is quite different from Lou Simon’s first three films and that goes to show just how talented this filmmaker is and how much she has to offer. There are thrills, chills and scares to be had.” The Slaughtered Bird

All Girls Weekend jumps out of the gate with a slow gallop, but quickly gains speed  as the story unfolds. I enjoyed Lou Simon’s take on girl’s lost in the woods, even though this film has similarities to other films with the same premise, his take was more creative. The cast had great chemistry and the acting was solid throughout.” Anything Horror
