finally an intersting,well acted horror movie!


I have been watching horror movies since I was 7 years old. I am now 38 and I can say that there aren't very many "original" horror ideas out there anymore and the horror freak inside me never gets fed. However, I really thought this movie was great! I was blown away by some of the actors ( especially dax) the idea of the movie and even the pace. New horror movies (if they aren't stupid re-makes) are mostly made for people with no attention span. If the gore doesn't get going right away, the audience tends to turn it off. I thought this movie had a very believable pace. How many times have we been out at the cottage and just sat there staring at each other? When I first started watching the movie and the beginning went on and on, I found myself getting caught up in the "no attention span" thoughts of "Oh my god, when is this movie going to really start?" But the more I thought about it I realizes that the pace was very realistic. I have been stuck on the roadside and let me tell you I am not doing much of anything. Anyways, I really think that horror fans should take a look at this creative horror movie even though the title is weak.

the problem with this movie is that it didnt know what it wanted to do and ended up just being a little bit of everything, which just ends up being frustrating

was it a zombie movie? no.

was it a phycological thriller? no

was it a morality movie? not really.

is the world ending now because friends sleep with each other? maybe?

is it a cabin fever esque movie? kind of? it just ends so abruptly so that peters out at the end.

if youre going to be a horror movie, make me jump. if youre going to try and have a message, say something. this movie didnt really do anything.

i think there was a lot of potential wasted here. some good acting, interesting camera stuff, just really really poorly thought out in the writing process.

I enjoyed this movie very much, tension, terror, isolation. Very good components of a good horror flick...
