This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

About a third of the way in, my heart was pounding so hard I could hear it in my ears. Several points in the film where I was thinking "ffs, just grab the gun". Didn't like the end, I wanted a proper conclusion and for goodness sake - what happened to Ollie??

Stupid people get raped, tortured and killed at the hands of evil rednecks. The end. A HUUUGE waste of time of a movie. They even throw in the murder of a baby just to make it more "edgy". It's decently acted, even though it's a very cheap movie, but the plot is non-existent, it's just there to lead from one scene of pointless violence to the other. Pass it.

I think Damien Power is going to be and author/director to watch. I know a lot of folks have dismissed this work as formulaic, but I am prepared to defend this.I can munch through horror/thrillers like popcorn with not much effect. This one grabbed my attention and kept it pretty taut. There were few or no moments where I thought, "This w/couldn't happen." The actors didn't overplay their roles, no chewing on the scenery. In addition, there were a couple of scenes that really made me sit up and pay attention (no, won't say which).I found the plot plausible, the layout and filming teasing, loved the fact that not every detail and bit of gore required viewing, and the ending...SPOILERS:I loved that the ending was open-ended, leaving the viewer to wonder what decision they would make.

Someone below mentioned that this film didn't make use of cheap tricks... BAHAHA Are you serious!? Were we watching the same film!? This movie is absolutely fu*king terrible!!! There is NOTHING to take away from this film. Boring, lame, cheap tricks that leave you angry and frustrated rather than truly scared or interested. Not sure what the point of this ridiculous excuse for a film was by the end of it and I doubt the writer had any clue either. The only reason anyone wanted to stick around for the end was to see if the kid made it out alive and you couldn't even give us that. Not clever. Clearly this writer/director thinks he's smart, but proves the opposite by assuming the film would be better if he teased the audience with lousy cuts and lame, disruptive flashbacks that keep you just p!ssed off enough to keep going. Let's not mention how utterly unoriginal this script is. Come on dude... really? How many times have we seen this same film... Too fu*king much! I give this film a huge thumbs down. Do not waste your time. And what was with the pansy @ss husband!? I think the biggest disappointment of the film is that he didn't die in the car crash. Throw some fu*king music in why don't you!? This isn't an artful, elegant film full of super intelligent dialogue and amazing character development although it's edited like it is. Cheap, boring, bullsh*t. I'm out.
