... View MoreActing is insulting. I love how nonchalant she is from being hit on by her brother in law (no emotion), waking up to the tent being taken out from under her and all supplies stolen (no emotion), hears a gun shot when she's all alone (nothing). I mean, this is either terrible writing or directing... everything about it.... you might need drugs to enjoy this film.
... View MoreLuckily I was able to play a video game, while watching this movie. However, for those of you who are not so lucky, let me get right into it.First off, the killers are three teenagers. OK, I can dig that. but lets start it from the begging. These young kids are able to make no tracks, no sounds, all while tracking our victims. Two of our victims (who are grown men) have grown up around guns/nature. One seems to be able to track people as a hobby and also has a hunting dog. However, while they are sleeping, they are able to be stripped away of all their belongings. Have a tent completely dissapear from above them, their hunting dog has been captured without waking anyone by a single bark. (you would think these teenagers had some type of special equipment or tranquilizers for the dog p.s. NOPE) The next great part I just couldn't help but laugh is how our hardened veteran, STABS one of the young teenage boys with a stick in his leg, grabs the gun from the killer, beats the killer over the head with the gun a good 6-7 times to the point where I would wonder if the attacker is presumed dead or not. Only to watch our victim turn away to "load' the gun, and no more than 5 seconds the attacker stands up as if hes superman, and simply "BAM" stams our strong veteran character with one jab, and pushes him to his death...... Mind you, this killer had just been stabbed, beaten with the rear end of a rifle 6-7 times, and is also presumed to be in highschool, weighing 150lbs, stood right up and stabbed our victim.... BRAVO.TBH, I could continue writing this review, but I am getting tired just thinking about the movie..TLDR: Another, everyone dies but the girl movie. Oh yeah, and the killers are 150 lb teenage boys, who are not only supermen, but also uanble to be detected only until AFTER they have robbed your stuff.
... View MorePROS: One thing I can say about this film that I liked 100% of the time was the intensity. The director really knew what a horror movie needed when it came to build up of tension. From opening scene to closing there was this aura that the film had about it that made me feel paranoid. With a slasher, like this movie, it is vital to keep that sort of vibe to the movie the whole time in order for the movie to not fall into the "basic" trap.CONS: Something that bothered me to no ends\ was how stupid some of the characters were. Like I don't understand how hard it is to hide into the woods, or to whisper your line instead of shout it if the killers right next to you. To add on, there were some things the film didn't answer or even acknowledge. It's OK if a film ignores small pieces or insignificant ones, but if the entire movie hinges on one idea being plausible they better be damn well sure they discuss that idea. This film not only ignored it, but they also depicted the characters who made that idea happen as being people who couldn't pull off the stunt. That disconnect from plot to character development was too large to overlook, and it even took me out of the movie. The final thing is the ending. Wow! how terrible is this ending? Let me tell you, it is worthless and stupid. I'll give you a hint. A brutalized person goes into town, and no one even looks at them twice, even though they are covered in mud, bleeding, and disgruntled looking.www.chorror.com
... View MoreI know this movie will never win any awards, and is definitely not the best it could have been, but I honestly really enjoyed this movie. Was it entirely believable? No, of course not. There were many instances where suspension of reality is necessary. One thing more than anything else, in my opinion, was the ridiculous idea that an iPhone battery would've lasted them as long as it did... But that's not why I watched this movie. I watched it because I wanted to have some thrills and chills, and that's exactly what I got. I watched it alone in a dark room and it was exciting and a little scary and it had me rooting out loud for the "good guys" to win. I was involved, and I was definitely entertained, and that's not always easy to get from a movie these days. Don't over-think things. Sometimes you just need to have fun.
