Infamousta brilliant actors, brilliant editing
Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
Sorpse damn what a raunchy movie. This movie falls into the small category of movies that are too nasty for me too recommend to people yet is very well made, written, and acted. The story is very good and there is quite a bit going on that it will be hard to explain without giving too much away...here's a try. 2 girls and their inbred mutant brother/son/nephew flee too the woods too hide from their psychotic father and his drug suppliers. That is the basic but there is a lot more going on, including plenty of rape, which is the main factor in deciding that I couldn't show this too anyone without a very strong warning. The movie is very violent, intense, gory, and obscene in almost every way and for what it is its all done very well. Alright that part was for people who haven't seen it, the rest of this review contains spoilers. I can't believe the different lengths this movie goes to exploit and offend. The plot synopsis made it seem like I misinterpreted some things but it looked to me like the father raped his daughter(off screen) and then she gives birth to her inbred brother/son and out of shame the father hides it in the shed where it grows up to be a mutant... That's just nasty but really every "indreds attack" movie is based off this premise they just don't have the audacity to confront their viewers with it, it makes things a lot more gritty. Then when the sisters flee the one sister becomes a prostitute. This just adds too all the nasty sexual abuse going on in the movie and its all very overwhelming, usually rape and sexual horror make me more uncomfortable than anything else. Now as if all that isn't enough, there is the side plot of the brutal drug dealers chasing after the girls, the dad breaking out of prison and then out of nowhere the sisters and brother become cannibals! This movie is ruthless as hell and even though I will probably never talk about it again, it was all well made and will not be forgotten.
BMarketingCo Hidden in the Woods is a film that is based on true events, though this is extremely hard to believe given the gruesome content and nature of the film throughout. Within the interview that is included in the 8-page collectible booklet, the director claims the film is 70% accurate to the true events and the other 30% is his own vision. Regardless, Hidden in the Woods will keep you at the edge of your seat for the whole 98 minute run time and leave the story and some images burned in your mind forever.The movie follows a couple of sisters and their brother who had escaped from their father, Felipe, who was a drug dealer. Throughout the years, Felipe had abused the girls and brother and subjected them to monstrous atrocities that you only read about in books. Their brother, Manuel, is deformed and had only been fed an all meat diet while he was locked in a shed. After escaping from their father, the girls and their brother all go to a cabin deep within the woods where Felipe used to keep his drugs. It is in this cabin the viewer is treated to a scene where the family cannibalizes a couple of hikers, who were up to no good, after they tried to attack one of the women. We see dismemberment, blood, gore, guts, and just about everything you can imagine. The special effects in this part of the film were very well done and made the scene seen believable.A man named, Costello, is the leader of a drug gang and he wants Felipe's drugs, so he decides to get other members of his gang to find the girls and torture them until they reveal where the drugs are hidden. Some members of the drug gang finally find the cabin with the girls in it and start to torture them asking where the drugs are; however, they have no clue. After some more blood flies, the girls and Manuel manage to escape into the woods. The remaining two members of the drug gang go out to find them and kill them. This chase sequence is very well done and so intense, it had the palms of my hands sweating and hoping the girls would get away. Eventually, we are brought to the very final scene of the movie. The final scene is so disturbing and so bloody, at times, I had to look away. I kept telling myself, "It's only special effects.", but it was so well done, it almost seemed like reality.I don't want to reveal too much of this movie in this review, hence, why I'm a bit vague on a few things because there are a couple of twists in the story at the end. Overall, this movie was sick, disgusting, gory, and extremely bloody, but I liked it. It was very well done and the story line was very believable, obviously, because it was mostly true. Hidden in the Woods is a movie that I recommend almost any Horror fan to watch as it's a story of survival and revenge at its most extreme. Overall, I give Hidden in the Woods a 5/5 stars. It's definitely worth buying and keeping in your collection as you may want to watch it multiple times.Overall rating: 5/5 stars, or in this case 10/10.Special Features:Interview with Director Patricio Valladares, 8-Page Collectible Booklet, Behind the Scenes Featurette, Artsploitation Trailers
trashgang This Chile flick has made some impression to Michael Biehn. He wants to do a remake about this brutal flick that is so-called based on true events.This flick is shown at a lot of horror conventions or festivals but seeing it I can't really say that it is a horror. It isn't even a revenge flick but a pure survival flick. It do has a few nasty and brutal moments were the red stuff is flying around but you will not be amused to see it due the brutality.This flick opens with a man killing a woman who appears to be his wife. His two sisters are raised in the woods by their father but he abuses them and rapes them throughout their teens. Of course one got pregnant but having no money the baby is raised with meat. A retarded is raised. The only way to survive is selling drugs but one sudden moment things go wrong and the father is jailed. The sisters ran away with the retard and are trying to survive and not being captured by the drug dealers. It's from there that it rather has some nasty things to offer like when two hikers are in the woods and seeing one of the girls naked they are out to rape her again. But she has a secret, cannibalism. Not your typical story with one of the sisters becoming a hooker and going for blow jobs one after each other. The final is maybe a bit of revenge but it's a blood bath galore. If you think that this is a normal flick about drugs forget it. This is pure exploitation were I admit the story isn't always correct, the chainsaw scene will proof that. Two guns against a chainsaw and the chainsaw wins....Nevertheless. I enjoyed it and the subs worked out fine. But again, not for everybody, surely a lot of horror geeks will stop it after a while but exploitation buffs will adore it.Gore 2,5/5 Nudity 1,5/5 Effects 3/5 Story 3/5 Comedy 0/5
Kenneth Brown As I Mentioned before;this is a brief simple review for a simple movie goer.if you want a detailed informative review.guess what i'm not giving one.oops sorry* well anyway let 1st begin;films like such as this is belong to a " special type " of crowd of film-goer's like me.we seek something different.something thats buzzed and hyped,possibly controversial; maybe even a WHOA factor. as one may put it.i wrote this review for 2 reasons and those 2 reason's only. 1) here's the simple review without me shouting out the entire plot. this takes place in Chile it has an abusive father with two daughters and some drug dealers things go bad and there you have it.wanna know more ? rent it.buy it. contribute to the hard work / effort into the filmmaking process and discover the plot for yourself. ahh yes the question as to is this as controversial as they say it is? well in direct formative answer: YES! more specifically for my American Friends. if you hail from south America or any other country where they view sex & violence like ham and cheese sandwich. NOPE. its enough to satisfy your appetite for sex & violence. and now on to the second reason: 2) i'm soo tired of people on ( not just IMDb )but other forum's ( films & TV ) complaining about violence,sex,video games,etc,etc. yeah you know the age old guns & ammo debate versus the film & television industry.listen up: if you don't like it keep it simple stupid. don't watch it idiot's. don't contribute. don't pirate them. don't sell 'em. don't complain.WHY? because its ART. that's right what's art to me is way different than art to you and vice versa. more specifically to my American people. i love ya'll.i even volunteered and served for my country. soo its very very extremely tiresome to hear outta the mouths of babies who have never had real responsibility in their lives or truly understand just because YOU FEEL its degrading doesn't not intent for everyone else's view. thats the amazing thing about an Opinion versus a fact.soo to wrap things up: go see this film with an open mind open judgment also remember different filmmakers create films to provoke different feelings from all walks of life on the earth no matter what country you come from. please enjoy films such as this one. remember there are a lotta of outta work Director's, Actor's, Producer's, Comedian's, etc. who are just as talented as our common A-Lister's. give every one a chance and soo give this film and the director a chance also Please support the effort and not be the cause of the aftereffect of a failure film. remember 1 film supports many individuals not just the discord of the director because you don't like his / her direction or whomever you dislike. thank you for allowing me to speak. this is my 1st time speaking out. * very nervous * sorry. Please Enjoy ~ Support The Effort.
