Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
GamerTab That was an excellent one.
Brendon Jones 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.
Blake Rivera If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.
donnamckinney They didn't show the 2 people getting kidnapped.I fell like the plot was an awful idea. I really enjoy horror movies, but this was just not horror it was very much too unexplained for my taste. Would not recommend to anyone.I understand many people worked hard to make this movie but i think that they just wasted their time and money.
Ash Bowen This is a complete rip off of a Psycho Holocaust (2009)!! Far too many similarities... including the prowess and demeanor of the characters. In the movie making biz, movies come from a novel, comic, re-make or old TV show... There are so very few originals out there. The last bastion of hope is to copy/steal others ideas in order to make their own. Psycho Holocaust wasn't an award winner, but it was Original based off of horror genre from the 70's/80's. And to steal it's likeness, story, character and feel of what was created is THEFT... If the idea was taken from a big budget Hollywood cut, there would be massive lawsuits. In Short, I see no reason to see this film, as I've already seen the Original!
freedom-from-sanity I try to applaud low budget film making as it's not easy to get a movie off the ground, hence I decided to give this movie a shot. But low budget doesn't mean it has to defy logic and lack any, even half, decently written characters.Fo starters I am a big fan of old horrors that used light and shadow to build up tension and dread in every scene (the original Cat People being a great example of this) But this was made in 2014 not 1942, and this is in colour. The low lighting in the opening, woodland scene, might create great shadows but it looks totally unrealistic and distracting in a modern colour film. Then there's the killer! He kills everyone with either a large knife, machete or axe. Thats it. He's a slasher, nothing fancy about him. So why oh why, when he has the girl with the crazy painted eyebrows tied down, does he look at some of his tools like he's decided with which one to make the first incision. He's a slasher not one of life's more sophisticated killers. But, before he does this, he toys with her with a pair of shears then just cuts open her shirt. That's it. He puts the shears down, looks at a few tools then stabs her like he does every other victim. The guy is a serial killer equivalent of a simpleton. He would no more think about what knife to use as he would what finger to use to scratch his bum.The guy with the gun baffled all logic as well. He has a shot gun, he's holding the door closed preventing the killer from getting in. So what does he do? He gives the gun to a girl and tells her to run while he holds the door. WHAT THE HELL!!! Just let the killer in and shoot him! This level of stupidity may have been excusable in the 70s and 80s but not now. The audience has moved on.Then there's the ending! A girl escapes and runs into a guy driving a van. We see them drive off across the highlands of Scotland (not a tree in sight) In the next scene its dark, the driver claims he has taken a wrong turning, and they are back in the woods?! How the hell this has happened I don't know as its not exactly teeming with roads in the Scottish Highlands. Follow a road long enough and you'll come to a village. This is Scotland not the back woods of America. But guess what, they just happened to end up back where the killer is!! Next (and this is the best part) she runs away and ends up...... Wait for it....... In a scrap yard!!!!! How the Flip did that happen. One minute its the bare but beautiful Scotish Highlands, then its woodland but now (all of a sudden) she's surrounded by scrap cars! Now I know that in movies they often play with geography in order keep the movie flowing (how often have we seen car chases move from one street to another that we know is actually miles from the first) but we can forgive this in the narrative and locale of the film. But moving from Barren hills and occasional woodland to the middle of a scrap yard is just plain dumb. As I have said before, this is Scotland NOT America. Unfortunately, I think the makers of this mess thought it was.
komer83 To be honest, I haven't read any reviews before watching this thing, shame I haven't. This movie is complete junk, there's no horror in it, the gore is bad and is only slightly better then the lame text.Now lets start, the movie doesn't bring anything new to the screen, it follow a pattern of other movies like it. Friends going to the wood, gets killed, end of story. However, other movies following this pattern might bring better effects, better dialogue and much better actors. You can pretty much see this movie is junk right at the start when you hear the sound of the knife and few seconds later, the axe, is the same sound. So they took the same audio file and just copy & paste it every time, they didn't bothered to even slightly change the pitch, speed or EQ (something that can be done in almost every free audio software out there) yes, it's that bad.As I said the dialogues offers nothing new, and the players reading them are just MEH. All monotonic, without highs and lows, all in the same pace one word after the other. Now lets see some more. In the part when they all sit around the fire and someone tells the story, how can someone screw in this one? I have no idea, they might sit next to the fire, but there's no read evidence for that, the light source is not the fire, or the moon (which supposed to be full) but from external light source, just normal light bulb from the set, dear director, how high were you when filming this one? Still, I watched it to the end, I actually thought it might bring something in the end, but no. Just the big old disappointment. One last thing, one of the characters had fake eyebrows (painted, or what ever they ladies call it) it was ugly, ugly ugly ugly. Even with that the crew screwed up. So really, do yourself a favor, don't watch, don't think I might get better at the end, they dialogue is not getting better, the gore is not getting better, the and characters are not evolving and the killer will still be super lame version of Jason Voorhees.
