ActuallyGlimmer The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

Tayyab Torres Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

geoffrey_bellamy I found most of the characters in the film pretty unlikeable. Mawky girls, quiet, simmering men, a horrible local but a very nice old lady. Much is unexpected and it takes a good while for the plot themes to start coming together. Some don't seem to have any logical connection to the plot resolution at the end, frankly. The gore is not too much for the faint-hearted, though very effective and realistic. The music is well used and has a nice depth and presence. I've seen a lot worse that this. It's a decent enough horror film and worth a watch.

Tony Cook If the acting was any more wooden, the cast would be crapping out MFI wardrobes.... ! It would of been better if the director had said "perform your lines, but if you want to add anything in do so as it would appear more realistic"This didn't happen and what would of been a better film was ruined because everyone was waiting to deliver their lines.What it does tell you is that anyone can become an actor and get work, regardless of if you have any talent.The premise was good but poorly delivered. It's a shame as I thought it was going to be good.

Leofwine_draca EDEN LODGE is one of those low budget British horror films where nothing really happens apart from a halfway-decent sense of mood and place. It reminded me a lot of the film shown the previous night on the Horror Channel, SIREN, which had more exotic locales but was similarly light on plot and incident.The story is about a sinister bed and breakfast where the guests go missing. There's no more to it than that, and fans looking for slasher horror in the form of death and gore will be disappointed as this is very tame. Instead the viewer has to put up with the tiresome acting of unknown cast members and a major plot point that seems to have been borrowed from that '70s horror classic FRIGHTMARE. The most interesting thing about EDEN LODGE is the way the title and box art blatantly copy the earlier British horror EDEN LAKE, which was about ten times more powerful and compelling than this rip-off.

Jack Miller *Contains Spoilers*I just don't know what this was to be quite honest. I think I looked at the display time at one point and 52 minutes had gone, 15 minutes remaining and nothing had happened yet. I saw this DVD very cheap and it appeared aesthetically intriguing from the cover and the blurb. After watching the film though I was wondering who are the people on the front of the DVD case? Who are the pictures of on the back, they weren't in the film?! It's like the budget went on the DVD case (even though it looks like it was pretty much copied from 2008's Eden Lake)I managed to sit through the whole thing (although it's relatively short), I only continued watching it in case there was a great twist ending but alas - nothing happened. The movie plot is similar to Vacancy (also very similar opening credits!), a car breaks down and the family have to stay in a B&B while their car is fixed. But instead of the owners making a snuff movie of them like in Vacancy, the family enjoy about three nights in a really nice, quiet, luxurious guest accommodation. After that the owner kills a few people, some without much of a motive it seems (the farmer and the guy camping). The couple run around for a bit and then the film ends. This is not scary and I wouldn't deem it a horror movie. There is a bit of violence/gore but nothing that you'll lose sleep over. In all fairness, I would probably stay at Eden Lodge. It looks very relaxing/comfortable and I would just lock my door if I didn't want the old woman owner to inflict harm upon me. It's only £65 for a night too. In conclusion, nothing really happens. Don't pay money for it. If it ends up on Netflix, laugh at it as part of your subscription.
