The town of Shady Grove holds many dark secrets. Amongst those secrets is the sadistic tale of "Shane", a boy who was tortured and chained to a tree as a youngster. Legend has it that for years he survived in the woods all alone until one day he managed to escape. Now, damaged and broken, he wanders those woods in search of blood, with his trademark chains fused to his wrists. Despite years of tales and urban myths, no proof of his existence has ever been discovered, until five unsuspecting teens reveal the truth on an ill-fated trip.

It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

The film is the typical mistreated boy grows up feral in the woods and becomes a local legendary killer...with a slight twist. It is a slasher film, with blood, guts, and a head roll. Hispanic cast made for a nice change. The music sound track was by Cinder Road which sounds similar to NIN. The film attempted to add some humor, but it didn't come off too well. The lines were not that well written. Pretty much everything you expect in a slasher film plus Guitar Hero.PARENTAL GUIDE: F-bomb, sex, nudity (Vivi Pineda, Christine Curran, porn star Michelle McLaren)

This movie is aptly named; you should beware watching it. The acting is third rate at best, the characters are all cookie cutter standard, and frankly, I was rooting for the killer to finish them all off to hasten the ending of the movie.The character Francisco goes beyond annoying. There are loudmouth, crude jerks that are completely full of themselves in almost every slasher flick, but this character takes the cake. He's so obnoxious that the premise that any woman would find him remotely attractive only further ruins this flop.Avoid this movie at all costs. If you're bored out of your skull and looking for something to watch... anything to watch... you should still pass this one up. Play tiddlywinks. Perform surgery on yourself with dull, rusty implements. It would be less painful than watching this slop.

Five Latino teens celebrating what could be their last weekend together, fall prey to a fabled killer by the name of Shane, after running out of gas and hitching a ride from a local to a peculiar little backwoods Florida town in the middle of nowhere Not much new here and it doesn't reinvent the (slasher) wheel in the least, but still manages to become better than average thanks to some pretty good practical special effects and a modicum of suspense. The film does falter a tad in the beginning (the sheriff and especially the two 'comedic' hicks are simply awful) and the movie takes a while for the real action to start, but once it does all my gripes about the film disappeared

I'm usually wary of ethnocentric horror movies. I've watched my share of all-black horror and these count among the worse horror movies ever made (and I've seen "A Night to Dismember"). So when the all-latino cast unrolled, I was almost instantly persuaded that I would lose again 90 minutes of my loser life. Never judge a book by its cover.A group of friends ride to a nearby latino festival but their trip comes to a halt with car problems and one creepy garage help. Like the majority of modern slashers, "Beware" suffers from the how-could-they-be-friends symptom. The tough leading lady and her no-bullshit boyfriend, I can fathom, but her cheap-tease BFF and said-tease's super-heavy boyfriend ? I'm not mentioning the dorky brother. Anyway, when & why did these 5 people become friends and lovers ? Past that disappointment, the movie starts off early with the requisite introduction murder and another couple of redneck murders in the 1st 20 minutes. Then the characters establish themselves at a local's secluded house and the carnage keeps on at a steady pace.As mentioned by another reviewer, the special F/X are top-notch for that kind of low-budget movie and the crew must be commended. One particular pyrotechnic stunt really blew me away. The director also has a good sense of pace and thankfully kills off the most grating characters first. I'll also say that the killer's backstory is one twisted piece of work. References to the "Friday the 13th" abound and keeping on with Jason's tradition, there's more than one pair of boobs on display. If you can get past the lead actors and their irritating characters, this slasher is safe bet.
