Karry Best movie of this year hands down!

Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Pluskylang Great Film overall

Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

fairlesssam A woman awakens in a wooden box with no explanation how she got there or why. Before-hand she had been at home with her young daughter.When a man comes and kind of drags her out of the box she doesn't ask who he is, where they are or how she got there. That's the first thing I would want to be asking.The victim is one of the most irritating I have ever come across. Screaming, begging, whimpering, absolutely pathetic escape attempts. If it wasn't for her it would be a pretty good movie. Great bad guy, mysterious, a real good psychopath.

Gimly Monocle (firstruleofmethclub) What started out feeling like a bad, British response to Wolf Creek, ended up feeling like a bad, British response to the already bad, American films; Captivity and Amusement.Bizarrely, while doing some research for this film, I found nothing but praise. It was low- budget, which is usually enough to find that everyone hates it, whereas I don't. In this case, it was a strange reversal, I hated it (not because of its cheap production values) because it was boring. The film is supposedly based on a "true story", but listening to an interview with director Adam Mason, it turns out this "true story" goes thusly; There was once a killer who dumped his victims in the woods. This movie is in the woods. Also the killer has characteristics that many other real life murderers could have. Yep, "could" have. So it's "based on a true story" in the same way that Titanic is "based" on the life and times of Marco Polo... You know... 'Cause there was a boat.I'd just like to reiterate that this film was woefully boooring. Because I believe that it's probably the worst thing that a film can be. Movies are, after all, filed under the category of "entertainment", so what sort of entertainment is it if it's not in the lest bit entertaining!? There's a couple of okay-ish things about it. The killer's not too clichéd, although he's so obviously based on Jigsaw, and not any real life killer. Also I think that happy endings are a cop out, this film does not contain one, so points there. But honestly, when you only have 2 characters, it'd be nice to see some damn character development!There's very, very little to this movie, so already I'm running out of things to say. This is not to somehow be mistaken for a compliment. Broken was just plain bad. Ending and beginning aside, there's nothing at all to it, other than annoyance. Ridiculous amounts of filler, it made me wonder if the guys behind it had any idea what they were going to do when they started rolling the cameras, it seemed more like "Ahhh, crap uh, um, you don't like this guy Ms. ActressLady, just run with it! And you! You're scared, so, be scared? Scream, yes, just scream, that can be your entire role for the next 20 minutes, only scream!"Boring. Boring. Broken. The only reason I didn't feel this film was a complete waste of time, was because I stopped paying attention half way through and started drawing a puppy. So it was only a waste of half my time.11%-Gimly

Rene Ruiz I decided to Google search for underrated Directors and I'm so glad I did since this is how I found Adam Mason's work. Mason is a magician turning very small budgets into great works of art, The acting is good, the more is less works in this film and I highly recommend you do as I did Google Adam Mason and watch his movies you will not be disappointed. I'm on my 3rd movie Mason has directed and I love them all so far, So give this movie a go if you need links to watch his movies online just shoot me a line and I will get these to you, Blood River is amazing and a must watch so is Broken and Luster. I will watch all his movies and rate them here I hope this helps other viewers as I am really happy I found Mason and his works of art. be advised the gore is in your face, and what I loved most about this move it was based on real life experiences, true story, I can't imagine anyone having to go through this type of horror and pain, the fear must have been so crazy yet the human spirit can adopt and survive almost anything.

wilddalidaisy This movie was so horribly bad I could barely finish it (but I forced myself to finish because I can't leave something unfinished). I had to watch it on mute sometimes just to avoid listening to the terrible lead actress screaming & crying & whining all the time (it made me hope the killer would finish her off quickly). The characters are all unattractive & hard to watch for their poor acting, which I can excuse, I guess, since the movie had a small budget. But, this film also made no sense at all. With little dialogue, a ridiculous plot with no explanations & what looks like hand-cam footage, this film, for me, was a total flop. I'll give a little props to the realistic gore, but that's about all I can do...
