It's time for the annual "Muskie Madness'' fishing contest, and the lake is packed with hopeful fishermen. It soon becomes apparent, however, that a psychotic serial killer has also decided to join the festivities. Although the police have determined that the killer is claiming his victims by landing them with giant fish hooks, no clear suspects can be found since everyone is using the exact same hook! What is the killer's goal? And more importantly, can the murders be stopped?

Press Quotes
Fans of slasher film should definitely see this, though, simply to laugh at some of the ways the genre gets subverted - and the ways it doesn't... This weird and wacky slasher smells fishy, but it's also just one of those films that has to be reeled in once.

The new Blu-ray has some decent special features to sink your hooks into on the second disc and I can recommend you pick this one up.
—Film Cultist
“Blood Hook” is a tackle box of slasher tropes and anti-war and PTSD undertones though slightly dragged down by its weighted comedy; however, a killer sound design and a topnotch killer makes “Blood Hook” a perfect poster film for Troma heads.
