Most of the reviews for this movie were positive so I thought why not give it a chance and was thrilled to discover it lived up to the promise. I don't have much to add to the reviews you'll find here already, they cover most of what I thought. It was engaging, familiar but unique, had me gasping at moments, groaning with disgust at others, laughing at times & shocked at others. There isn't much to dislike - other than the occasional bad CGI but there is also so much to love about the production, acting, cinematography, special FX, makeup (particularly brilliant on makeup) and overall pacing/building of tension etc. I loved every moment. I had to laugh at the 2 or 3 bad reviews. I suspect they are written by sensitive sallies who took exception to the portrayal of those nice white American rapists/killers as racist, sexist, misogynistic morons LOL Suck it up guys. :D Highly recommended indy flick for any genuine fan of the horror genre, especially those of the Spit on Your Grave, Last House on the Left etc variety. That pub scene tho..... *ouch* LOL
