Synopsis

A young couple staying in an isolated vacation home are terrorized by three unknown assailants who scare the living crap out of them.  They aren’t able to run… they aren’t able to hide… they are at the mercy of these unknown assailants.


Review

I was very skeptical when I first started this movie, I haven’t seen a “scarey” movie in awhile… you know one that makes you almost pee your pants and clutch a pillow in terror…

Lets set the scene… we begin by turning out all the lights, lighting 3 candles and JACKING the volume up the on the TV.  If you are going to watch a scarey movie… you have to do it right… right?

Well… let me tell you, the opening is okay, it sets the scene… a happy couple… so much in love, then they get to the vacation house in the middle of BF nowhere.  Then the fun starts!

There is knocking at the door, random noises, random appearances… and all the while… you are screaming in terror.  The attackers have unlimited access to the house… and just all around mess with their prey. I LOVE scarey movies… and this one really does scare you, as long as you get into the movie and don’t think too logically.   The friends that I watched this movie with (are you kidding me watching a scarey movie by myself @ night?) had already WATCHED this movie when we sat down… and they were screaming and jumping right along with me… and they already saw it.

It is a frightning good time and a great scarey movie that is not a gore fest… it really does scare the living crap out of you.

Happy Watching!
