Teringer An Exercise In Nonsense

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.

Tayloriona Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Freeman This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

sadielynn424 This movie has become one of my all time favorite horror movies ever! I didn't expect one movie to have so many twists and horrific scenes. It was very creepy and disturbing. This is one of those movies that you think you know what is going to happen and then the complete opposite happens. I watched this movie for the first time with my friends and the ending left us in complete shock. We sat there talking about it for a half hour after it ended because we couldn't get over how unpredictable it was. Daniel Coughlin and George Bessudo did a fantastic job on making a unique religious horror film. I definitely recommend this movie!

the_urban_prince First i was reluctant to see this film, as i thought it was just another hostel type film...to a certain extent it was. it'll make you rethink about getting into a gambling debt with organized crime. either way by the time you get to the cheese grater scene things pick up REAL quick. i must say the ending was almost telegraphed with all the foreshadowing. but they keep it together long enough to hit you in the gut with the very dark menacing and bone chilling ending. and i heavily agree about the look of the film. it's low budget but you'll never know it, because it looks like a major mainstream picture. this should have definitely been a major release.this twisted little flick was a great find..

paul david This is a very decent psychological thriller horror with some excellent acting and there is nothing cheap or cheerful about this movie, I like movies which make you think and ask questions and this film - a little bit like Lovely Bones recently - makes you do that.The film in a way also reminds me of the recent horror Vacancy with the couple on the run and the couple conveniently being in a range of a farmhouse when they crash the car.Chad has a gambling problem - but why was he gambling? And how was the 25K paid? I assume the house where they lived was rented, not owned, and they gave the furniture away to a neighbour, so took nothing away with them in the car, or so it seemed.The girl clearly had a problem in childcare and a healthcare issue with her baby. They both had a problem and the visitation to the farmhouse was a sort of addressing of their guilt and wrongs, so how I seem the drowning of the girls head and the prompt for Chad to justify himself as a man and try and save her.There is A TOUCH of SAW 6 in this morality (if there is any morality).The deaf guy is a key character in the story but is he the only worker to be employed on such a large vineyard 30 miles from anywhere? Absurd but intriguing. The sinister couple too busy bonking to put their hand to the hands on management of the vineyard.Great ending but I still don't get the opening scene when Scarlet the girl is a child and is flash backed again at the end. Need to watch again for further curiosity.Overall, excellent thriller, not top-drawer but enjoyable in this specific film sector although why they persist in including mindless eroticism (sex scene with the open door) is quite beyond me. A theme of many of such films of dateI have some AFTERTHOUGHTS to my original posting.Of course what has happened is that the couple have wronged with the death of their child and perhaps cashed in an insurance Policy to meet the gambling debt and fund a getaway. But this is wrong through the eyes of God and the car accident is their penitence and punishment for eternity, hence the role played by Lil and Samyel, although brutal and horrific, is intended to send a very clear message - and it surely does.In life there is no second chance. there is also a slight moral connection with the Cohens A Serious Man (but only slight).Wow, this is a real thinking film, there is definitely a similarity in this movie with what happened to the little girl in Lovely Bones and the couple in the car crash. Enjoy this movie, its great!

movieman_kev Scarlet (Jamie Anne Allman, known mostly for her short, but very memorable, stint as a prostitute on "the Shield") and her husband, Chad decide to stay at the farmhouse owned by Sam (Wings funny-man Steven Weber) and Lilith (Sunset Beach's Kelly Hu) for the night after they have some car trouble while moving to Washington state in order to start anew after the death of their only child. But quite obviously the intentions of the farmhouse couple are slightly less that altruistic.Writer Daniel Coughlin once again teams up with director George Bessudo with only slightly better to show for it than their first film "Lake Dead" (that's solely due to the fact that whereas that film was utterly abysmal, this one is merely sub-par with an ending that sinks it). Jamie Anne Allman can and indeed has done miles above the acting she does here, the guy who plays Chad is atrocious and the other two fare no better. The ending just about ruins the film, not that it was spectacular before that. And I just look back on the movie as time that I could have spent more wisely by doing.....anything else.My Grade: DDVD Extras: a 10 minute Behind-the-scenes featurette is the one and only extra
