Based on a pretty simple storyline, the plot drowns slowly to the bottom of horror.
There are too many bad and awkward survivor films those days. This one is an exception to the rule. The very natural atmosphere of the beginning is slowly parasitized by bizarre elements that gives the end a terrible nightmare feeling. The excellent casting and dialogs makes all the difference with many other genre films. If you think that the main character's initial situation is bad (singer for old people), wait to see the rest...
As an European horror fan, I naturally love Hooper's Chainsaw massacre, but it always had an exotic feeling for me. If i identify with the protagonists, it is because of an universal fear of death, torture and violence. This time, it is like the silly rednecks of Texas had taken the plane to play in my backyard. The fact that the setting of this film takes place in a well known environment added some sickness to me.
The climax, insane enough, and brilliantly well built won't let you feel comfortable for a while.
Finally a film that is comparable to the chainsaw in terms of intensity, that doesn't content to reproduce the masterpiece of Tobe Hooper. With its own identity, it reaches the same kind of quality.
I apologize for the spelling mistakes
