Leia R Nov 8, 2018 Yawn-inducing tale of unlikable and unbelievable characters whose character-arcs are underwhelming. Skip it.

Hagrid R Sep 26, 2018 This is a very dull "thriller" starring Gary Oldman, though he's not in his best form here. English vacationers in Spain have a run-in with locals in a tavern on the way to the farmhouse they will be staying in. While on a hunting expedition, the English men find an abandoned shack with a young, deformed girl chained inside. They decide to rescue the girl and carry her to the farmhouse. Guess who comes knocking to find the girl? See more

Finn S May 11, 2018 Characters are not flushed out at all. Some of them have some back story that needs explaining and the ending was very lackluster. Acting was good but the script should have been taken out by one of those shotguns the actors used in the movie. See more

Luke W Mar 18, 2017 Extra half star for being more a thinking film than a glamor show. This may clear up some reviews but not others: there looks to be another version of this film with same stars made same year, looking elsewhere on Rotten Tomatoes. Imagine a typical B movie that excels at production and you'll probably turn up Sam Raimi's 'Evil Dead' films there toward the end. What if liberation became a horror no is where everyone dies at the end? Then we would be a few clicks away from Evil Dead with Gary Goldman reprising at the end his earlier role as a killer punk rock bassist. A lot of other films plunge into gratuitous violence and obligatory carnage. This film could be a drama or could be a psychological thriller with a different percussion. Some of you will want to cheer that the film isn't the tedium of countless videos gone before. The dream that you were going to be connected to once upon a time -- what if its enemy had disappeared? I'm watching earlier and now all I can see -- Hamburger Hill. Time to grab that dilemma by its horns and find your own way home. See more
