~Plot~

When a young couple goes to a remote wooded lake for a romantic getaway, their quiet weekend is shattered by an aggressive group of local kids. Rowdiness quickly turns to rage as the teens terrorize the couple in unimaginable ways, and a weekend outing becomes a bloody battle for survival.

~Review~

I was drawn to the film by other recommendations, and the fact that Jack O’Connell from the third series of Skins has stared in the feature.

Coming into this film on a whim, I was completley surprised and deeply thrilled by the sheer horror that this brought right onto the table. It starts off slow with the cliche couple running off into the countryside to get away from it all to only come into a town that was filled with loud-mouth pricks. Everything is silent for a few scenes, but when we get to the part where the two leads are lounging by the lake, we’re greeted to a group of rowdy English chavs that come in with loud music while terrorizing a little kid seen earlier in the scene. They end up bothering the couple, and then, all hell breaks loose within fifteen minutes of running time.

What would’ve been a typical horror film, it turns into a very horrific deal of adolescent gangster violence set upon on just the whim for “They f$#%ing killed my dog, even though I threatened to kill them!”

For people calling this film unrealistic, I disagree. Lot’s of weirder and harsher things have happened in the world, and what’s not to say that you could get overrun with a group of twats getting ready to BBQ you alive while bounding you with barb wire?

It’s not a film for the faint of heart, and it will hit hard - especially by the time the end credits start to roll.

Aside from the public warning, this is definatly a horror film that is heavily a must see for any filmbuffs watch list. Be forwarned, you will be stuck with a bitter taste for the next hour after viewing.
