n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Stop me if you've heard this one before: two couples are on a camping trip. En route, they fill up at a gas station, where one of the local rubes tries to come on to a female member of the party. They also meet a seriously dodgy cop. On the road again, they soon realise they are knee deep in redneck territory... when a naked man covered in tattoos tries to kill them during an unscheduled stop. They eventually arrive at their destination, and the lads decide to go motocrossing. Ignoring every single 'Keep Out' and 'No Trespassers' sign (And there's a LOT of them) they go way off the beaten track.. and run into some more of the local inbreds. Things quickly escalate from there...I could name at LEAST 5 films with almost exactly the same scenario off the top of my head. Either this proves how worn out the storyline is, or I need to stop watching so many cheapo horror flicks. Regardless, it's as ugly and brutal as you'd expect just by looking at the cover. In the latter stages, there's almost nothing but torture and abuse, all 'lovingly' shot in close up by our voyeuristic director so we don't miss a drop of blood. Thanks, mate. That's not all: One of our leading ladies is PREGNANT. Think they might lay off her? Guess again. In fact, she probably gets the WORST suffering out of all them. Talk about taking no prisoners...At least, if so inclined, you can get a slightly sick thrill out of these scenes. The rest of what's here is pretty much useless, including chase sequences that go on forever, some mushy relationship stuff and an old preacher (who seems to be the leader of this freak community) blathering on about how all of America is corrupt and unclean, apart from their neck of the woods. I... can't even ... describe how deluded... that is. Taken all into consideration, this maybe would have been better with the 15 or so minutes of serious gore all spliced together to make a fake snuff film. Let's face it... the main audience for this aren't going to be interested in the rest of the nonsense on display, are they? 4/10

I watch many a horror film, some good and some bad - I know what I like and I liked this very much.Whilst Resurrection County won't win any awards, my personal opinion is that it rose above many other films of its ilk by putting a different slant on the "rednecks" usually seen in movies of this type. The inhabitants of Enoch, in my opinion, were more of a religious/survivalist type who would for the most part, leave intruders alone - unless of course, they interfere in their world.I have no complaints about the acting or the effects and was surprised by the ending... my only complaint was the character of Lucy whom I found a bit irritating and Dayton Knoll reminded me of Corey Feldman - other than that, a rather solid little film.

This is possible my favourite backwoods film of all time and yes that means it exceeds The Texas Chainsaw Massacre ( 1974 ). I was giving up on North American Horror until I watched this little gem a few years back. In fact I thought only Asia and Europe were making great flicks, hello Martys, Frontiers, Inside, High Tension, In my skin, Creep, Severance, Storm warning, Eden lake, Them,The orphanage etc etc etc but films like this one, Lovely Molly, Insidious and The Orphan have renewed my trust in films in North America. Resurrection County is one of the most insanely intense film I have seen in years. I was on the edge of my seat throughout its beautifully crafted running time. You can see the influence from such films like High Tension and Frontiers here especially with our main heroine with her short hair and blood drenched body. Distribution for this gem was very small so please do seek it out. It will be worth every minute you put into it.

So I was in the mood to watch a stereotypical bad horror movie and I settled on this due to decent reviews. I was very surprised mostly by how realistic the villains were in this one. They are more like people that we have met or even know rather than your run-of-the-mill typical inbred stupid rednecks you tend to see in these movies. This movie sets up the norm and then has an early (edge of your seat disturbing) scene in the first quarter and then kind of dies out a bit before gearing back up again. I was surprised at the character left standing but I saw the ending coming a mile away. Maybe I've just seen too many of these movies. The acting and effects are believable. The story is pretty realistic (most of the time.) I was going to give 6 stars but I gave it 7 because it was on my mind for a couple days after watching it. I personally enjoyed this movie.
