Great visuals, story delivers no surprises

Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Katie (Jo Hartley) and Jeff (James Doherty) are two social workers who take four troubled teens to a remote cottage in a remote village for...I am not sure what, but they are there. The townsfolk all seem to have the same bad teeth and large ears. After a run in, our heroes become the main attraction in a theater one might see in "Blood Sucking Freaks" complete with a bare bottomed organ player right out of Monty Python.The theater aspect, which was by far the highlight of the film, needed a third act. There was significant internal conflict within the teen group which served more as a distraction. Instead they should have used this as an opportunity to develop dark humor. The film is also sold as a comedy, but the humor was more in their outfits. The production certainly has the potential to achieve cult status as it has all the qualifications, but for me it fell short. Personally I prefer "House of a 1,000 Corpses" or "10,000 Maniacs" or "Blood Sucking Freaks" for this type of cult genre.Recommend as a strong cult rental. Parental Guide: Frequent F-bombs, attempted rape, sex play, male rear nudity.

The movie wasn't as bad as expected, good kills and scary,weird looking characters. Most of the main characters overacted and made obvious dumb decisions just like in many other horror movies. The movie had a scary atmosphere and had some humorous moments. The ending was kind of a disappoinment because I expected something different. All in all it has positive and negative aspects, I liked the creative, almost funny killing scenes but I didnt like the fact that I felt no sympathy or connection to the main characters at all. If you expect a brilliant, creative horror movie with a great ending, it will disappoint you but it is worth watching.

I watched this film based on the trailer and perhaps the trailer ruined it for me. Most of the kills are shown in the trailer so there weren't much new to see in the film. The kills are few and far spaced out in between each other with the longest dry spot happens soon after the first two murdered victims. Because of this, the film doesn't build any kind of momentum and the dialog feels monotonous, the whole film was very sluggish for me. The comedy is dim-witted and not very funny. Having said that, the special effects and methods of the kills are very good, gory and creative, but not enough to make up for what seem to be an arduous viewing. If this film came up on cable TV, I would tell a friend to shut off the television and just go for a walk outside.

If you enjoy a gory Horror flick with plenty of wry humour then this Is for you. Set In North Yorkshire, a small group of troubled teenagers who have been In local authority care are taken on a country break by two social workers to a run-down cottage on the outskirts of a village Inhabited by strange, Inbred yokels with a taste for using outside visitors as their sole source of bloodthirsty entertainment. Refreshingly different and with more than a little bloody violence(but with tongues firmly In cheeks)this Is an entertaining film with plenty of laughs mixed In with the horror that the villagers apparently consider a normal part of their everyday lives. A host of weird and wonderful characters are as frightening as they are funny, with Jim - the Landlord of the villages only Pub, the "Dirty Hole" - keeping everyone In check as both a father figure and, It seems, father In the literal sense of at least several of the strange-looking Inhabitants. The (fairly) strong Yorkshire accents may be a little difficult for some to fully understand (Indeed, our American friends may require subtitles, particularly where the "Eeh ba gum" song Is concerned),but the genuine Yorkshire lingo helps to make the film all the more authentic. Do any of the group manage to make It out of the village alive? Which ones will It be? Well, you'll have to watch It to find out. Great fun!
