    Well, I didn't see THAT coming.

    Another very average horror set off the beaten track. A couple of familiar faces in the cast and it is quite gory in parts. However it feels like it's trying to ride the coat tails of Wrong Turn, The hills have eyes franchises. One for horror fans who don't mind a cheesey horror....( read more) You might like Eden Lake instead.

    It's not bad considering its genre (check my "Went Down the Wrong Road" Backwoods Horror List), but the last shot gives an auto deduction of half a star (the killer is still alive! and traveled to the victims' home town - it's not even laughable satire, just PATHETIC).

    Anyways, ...( read more)the rest of the movie is decent. There are a mix of crap and good special effects, and most of it appears to be practical (well done there). The actors give their all, and I like the idea that these captors want their victims to have a baby for them. The set design of the torture basement is tops, and the pacing is decent. Action segments are well filmed. The primary weapon is really cool, but I don't really like Deacon's (main baddie) makeup job; it could have been tweaked a little better.

    The plot structure is fine, but some of the dialogue is really weak in conveying the perversion of religion to violent means and portraying the stereotypical secular response to this violent fervor. Okay if you like this niche genre of horror.

    If I'm ever kidnapped by crazy horror movie hillbillies, I want it to be by these guys. They're not going to eat you, rape you, skin you, make you into furniture, or otherwise mutilate you so long as you marry your significant other and have a baby with them. Great if you're a ...( read more)character in Timber Falls, but, unfortunately, the completely non-threatening trio of villains makes for quite a boring movie. Nothing here you haven't already seen in other, better genre entries.

    I was torn on rating this movie.
    Should I give it one or less stars as a horror movie or high marks as a comedy? I'm still not sure as there were some parts that actually had me laughing out loud.
    I'm not one to give a plot away, but let's call this "Deliverance" meets Plann...( read more)ed Parenthood and throw in the religious right nutbags that frequently picket outside as well.
    Our protagonists defy all warnings, verbal and inferred, and come into some twisted and obvious circumstances.
    Our male protagonist has way too much testosterone as he spits in the face of his torturers every chance he gets serving up a grand plate of bravado that is so unbelievable...
    The lapses in judgment, the obvious traps, the plot twists that really are not twists at all and the cheesy dialogue...
    Like I said, this might make it into my cheese book as good comedy with a nice side or gore, but horror?-it doesn't come close.

    the plot is not original at all but it is pretty entertaining.

    Nearly had a heart attack good scary film
  • October 2, 2009
    I've been wanting to see this for awhile and I wasn't disappointed. I did jump a few times but I wouldn't necessarily call it scary. That's not saying it wasn't good. Plenty of gore, oddly large # of people stabbed in the neck lol. For people bitching about the end, you knew it w...( read more)as coming. What's wrong w/one last cheap scare?

    The plot of this film has been did soooo many times. Wrong Turn...The Hills Have Eyes. Ring any bells? A young couple hiking in the mountains, crazy hillbilly family, a deformed freak. Need I go on? Nah.
