Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
Two brothers and one's wife go for a hunting weekend to a preservation. Before they know it they are in trouble. But also is this flick.It takes a bit too long before the trouble comes in. Once it does not that much is explained. The first kill is done with an animal (dog)so revenge is on it's way once he discovers that his dog is being killed. The problem is that the two brothers fall for the same wife and she's pregnant so soon they think they are after each other. As viewer it's shown it isn't. The killer in the woods is some kind of supernatural one, being stabbed and smashed with a gun a few times he still stands up and goes for his kills. But he's not alone...Once the killings are done and there's one survivor this horror turns into a survival/revenge horror. That's the best part, reminded me of the excellent Eden Lake (2008). Still, it's full of plot holes and we move from one scene to another without anything explained or making sense. On part of the red stuff, it do flows here and there and the sewing scene can be disgusting for some. If you can sit through the first hour then this turns out fine as a horror.

This is an extremely low budget movie about a woman, her husband and his brother who spends a weekend in a closed down state park.Why is their not a big fence to keep people out? All of them, except maybe the woman seem extremely stupid and what they have coming is well-deserved.Of course they're not alone.*SPOILERS AHEAD* And we're suppose to believe that 3 ordinary teenage boys on mountain bikes are killing people that are dumb enough to go in to a closed state park.The husband and his brother are killed pretty fast and the pregnant wife makes it back to the car. But the car won't start, because they boys have ruined the engine.And yet these three experienced killers are dumb enough to fall for the traps this woman set for them and kill them all.What little violence there is, is almost not shown at all.The woman then takes the last boy's bike and ride it back to the city, where no one helps her in spite of the fact that she's covered in mud and blood.And then the movie ends.Don't waste your time on this garbage.
Okay, I'm not yet done with the movie but I feel like this is already a somewhat not horrible horror movie. So far, my feelings are eh. The dog dies, so yes, I most likely won't like the rest of the movie. Then, the brother "kills" the first one, or one of the three killers. He turns his back, which is a BIG mistake. At least knock him out? The husband, is an idiot for taking the suspended water to a tree when the water bottles were stolen, and then stepped into his own trap?? Don't take suspended water from a tree. The wife, she gets unconscious from hitting that rock, then gets up rather quickly? She tries to hot-wire the truck, of course, but couldn't so she gears up and goes /back/ into the woods?? You don't do that..? You go away from the woods and get help, like she said she would??
To start off, I want to say that the trailer practically shows you how the movie is going to play out. As for the actual movie, it started off good, it developed the characters well, the cinematography was pretty, and it just came off as a professionally made movie. It was once the killers took their first victim that it went downhill for me. Leading up to the first kill, it was a very intense scene, until the victim does the classic "turns around after immobilizing bad guy" mistake. It was just really disappointing, but more so frustrating. There was one scene in particular that was suppose to be emotional, and it would have been very much so if the movie hadn't already ruined itself. Still though, If you're thinking about watching the movie, I say do it. Even though it wasn't good, it's still not a waste of time.
