Typical backwoods survival horror elevated to something very special indeed by wry flashes of humour, superb realistic performances and several moments of utter brutality that appear without warning and slap you sharply around the face. I can't remember the last time I heard gasps of shock and disgust belch out at such volume in the rural multiplex.
Damn, looks like I missed a trick there. It was on at LFF and I decided to pass based on the synopsis.
ReplyDeleteYou haven't missed any tricks, it's going to be on at loads of cinemas in a couple of weeks, just go see it at one of those instead.
DeleteYeah, sure - just meant I made a bum call there. Could have been watching this instead of the dreck that was The Corpse of Anna Fritz! Will look out for it somewhere central.
