Just as I had given up on Corey Haim as a sensible actor he pulls
out his trump card.
This film is set in the 1950`s and is about Girls,Cars and first time love.
Corey Haim plays Eric,a 15 year old boy who works on his Dads
chicken farm.
Eric lives with his Dad and step mom and spends his free time at a lake nearby.
One day he see`s Barbra Williams taking a dip in the nude and starts to fantasize about her.
Eventually he gets closer to her,has a dance at the local fair
and then eventually has a first time experience with her in the Hay barn.
All scenes are very tastefull and rather charming and Corey I
have to say that this film is your best.
It was nice to see him returning to the quality of his earlier
performances such as Lucas,he needs to appear in more films like
this to restore his lost credibilty due to appearing in immature childish rubbish like Fat Getaway 2 and Watchers.
Well worth seeing

This comming to age drama set in the 1950's. Corey Haim does a great job, together with Barbara Williams and Robbie Coltrane.
Corey plays Sam, who get his eyes open for older woman Vera. A delighful movie with good cast. So if you a free a sunday evning, go and rent this movie.

Nice story however if there is one thing I don't like about movies is "rewriting". That's when they change the language or blur parts of it or cut parts of it. A big no no in my book!!!

I have always been a Corey Haim fan and have recently been trying to collect all of his movies...Oh,What a Night happened to be one I was lacking. Usually, just having Corey in the movie is enough for me. I thought I had seen the worst with Demolition University, but this movie is the very worst of the Corey films I have viewed! Not like the Fast Getaway 1 & 2 movies or any other of Corey's movies..this one has no action, no comedy...Corey barely even moves in this film! During most of the movie, he is standing somewhere gazing at one thing or the other, or just into space...Corey doesn't even have a great amount of lines! I thought I had hit bottom with Fever Lake, but NO! Compared to this movie, Fever Lake rates 5 stars on your scale. Don't waste your time or money or your thoughts in thinking that "something" has to happen sooner or later to make this movie worth watching...That's what I kept telling myself as I yawned my way through this BORING(a word I never use to describe a Corey movie) attempt at acting. Just don't bother! Trust me!
