Part crime caper gone awry, part survival horror film, this 1970s set thriller depicts a harrowing fight for survival after a pair of wannabe crooks botch a bank heist and flee into the desert, where they inexplicably stumble upon Carnage Park, a remote stretch of wilderness occupied by a psychotic ex-military sniper.

Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.
Spidersecu Don't Believe the Hype
Brainsbell The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.
Suman Roberson It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.
LeonLouisRicci It's usually Regretful to Trash B-Movie Trash because if one Loves Movies it's Hard to be Hard on these Newbie Filmmakers. But...and it's a BIG BUTT...When there is Nothing Original or Compelling on screen it Wastes the Time of the Viewer and Insults those that were Willing to Watch.The most Irritating Ingredient in this Dumb Derivative is, Ironically, someone's decision to Include Audio Feedback, Air-Raid Sirens, and other Screeching Ear-Piercing Intrusions that seem to be the Filmmakers Signature Artistic Attempt to be "Different".Perhaps it's meant to Assault the Audience, but it Insults the Audience with a Torturous Template that Never Ceases in this Abomination that Never Ceases to Show how Awful this Thing is.The Audio is also Accompanied with Loud Screams from the Female Victim with Annoying Regularity. Ashley Bell seems to be Auditioning for a "Scream Queen" Centerfold.The Movie is Repetitive, Aggravating, and Awful. It's a Sepia-Toned, Flat, and Poorly Crafted Throwback. The Gore Effects are the Best Thing in this Thing, but a Few Flourishes of Morbid Makeup can't Make Up for the what's on Display from behind the Camera and are Hardly Enough to make this Worth a Watch.
trashgang Made as an ode to flicks from the seventies this flick sadly do has it flows. It all starts pretty well with the future and the past perfectly blend into each other but the further this one goes it turns into a few problems.I can dig the whole story so-called based on true events a bit like they did wit Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974) even the color grading used reminded me of those good old exploitation flicks.But it's the ending, especially in the mines that took a bit too long for me because naturally it's pitch black in mines but it's also filmed that way. So many moments the only thing you see is a black screen. But luckily the effects used were above mediocre. There aren't that many in it but the shooting in the head and the results are really a must see for gorehounds. Don't get me wrong, it is still worth picking up but as said, the mines could have been a bit shorter, it would made it a perfect flick.Gore 1/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 3/5 Story 2,5/5 Comedy 0/5
SillyGayBoy I'm gonna rate it a 9.Pros:1)Good use of gore 2)good storytelling (mostly) 3)Good character development 4)Good surprisesCons:1)Stupid and weird at times and maybe not in a good way 2)Parts of movie seem long and pointlessThe movie was pretty good fun and awesome scenery and a good use of a script and story. I liked the characters and found myself enjoying it and having fun mostly but some stuff just seems unnecessary drawn out and not interesting but for the most part it is a good ride and I love independent films that can give us a good ride so for that it gets a 9. It would have gotten 10 but I felt there was a little room for it to be better. This movie probably would have done well with cutting a little more out of it.This movie is dark and gruesome. Don't watch if you can't handle some grizzly surprises. Maybe better if you can see the humor in dark films.
Peter Pluymers "Brothers burn faster when they're burning together." The only positive thing about this film was Pat Healy as the crazy ex-marine Wyatt Moss, who set up his own personal amusement park somewhere in the bone-dry desert in California where he lures lost backpackers and hunts them down as a real psychotic hunter. He gratefully uses his talent as a sniper during these chases. The few times he speaks in this movie, show that he's ready for the nuthouse. Especially the dialogue with his brother, Sheriff Moss (Alan Ruck), is a memorable moment with that intonation and those facial expressions. Wyatt gave me the chills here, acting as a real psychopath. Just because of this scene, I'm planning to watch some more films with Healy playing in it.I also thought that the sometimes eerie soundtrack and sound clips reverberating from the megaphones weren't so bad. They emphasized the insane mind of Wyatt. But otherwise this was a meaningless crime film, starring a madman fascinated by religion, who has his own safari park where victims try to survive. Thus a typical survival film. The last victim here is Vivian (Ashley Bell). She was kidnapped by two layabouts who tried to rob a bank and ended up in Carnage Park. It isn't very original and to be honest, there isn't happening that much essentially. It's during her stumbling flight that Vivian discovers other victims. And surely you can expect some fragments that are similar to those in other famous horror movies.The thing that amazes me every time, is the stupidity of the main character. When you take matters into your own hand, make damn sure you do it thoroughly. Such a madman wouldn't get a second chance with me. But no, Wyatt with his gas mask (which reminded me of a CD cover from "Therapy?") resurfaces once again and the cat and mouse game restarts. And a cat could well have an advantage in this game, because it was largely pitch dark in this film. Several times I checked if the power went down, because in the end I couldn't see Jack sh*t most of the time. Also, the attempt to emulate the feel of a 70's movie wasn't really successful.Actually, you can compare this with Mickey Keating's previous creation "Pod". Also, a so-called horror with potential. Good intentions are clearly present and there are also some positive aspects can be seen, but ultimately it's all vague and disappointing. Even downright violence and bloody fragments can't prevent it's becoming pretty boring and tedious halfway. Not to mention the announcement that this film is based once again on true facts. That won't make it an exciting movie, unfortunately.More reviews here : http://bit.ly/1KIdQMT
