Harockerce What a beautiful movie!
AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks
BroadcastChic Excellent, a Must See
Connianatu How wonderful it is to see this fine actress carry a film and carry it so beautifully.
Greatornot Believe me a 7 for a 'B' horror movie like this , is like a 10 rating for a 'typical' film. This film was at the top of my rating , for this genre. The movie had the gore that I like. The twists were predictable but the film did flow. I liked the fact that there was sexual tension added between the cannibals and the victims. I felt that was a nice touch,interesting,and not overdone. I do not watch these types of movies to get Sean Penn, Johnny Depp or Katherine Hepburn type of acting. It is what it is...You do not eat fast food for gourmet purposes! There was a bit of nudity in select moments. Overall, worthwhile horror flick to watch and if you have the DVD, rent it or get it from your local library , watch the BEHIND THE SCENES Extra.It was very informative. Enjoy!
Michael O'Keefe This Leigh Scott flick is based on a true story inspired by THE HILLS HAVE EYES; I for one still say... rip-off. Gore for gore's sake. Five twenty-somethings decide to spend a weekend spelunking; actually a make out session. This sometimes sells movies. It doesn't take very long before the cave explorers are brutally attacked, ravaged, slaughtered and devoured by a clan of inbred cannibals. Some very sick and disturbing scenes; and some scenes that make no sense at all. This is a very bad modern day B-movie. The story line is very simple and dialogue is about non-existent. Grunts, groans and a lot of dismemberment. There is nudity involved, albeit bloody.The cast features: Heather Conforto, Tom Nagel, Erica Roby, Marie Westbrook, Justin Jones and Louis Graham.
Jess-Dellen This is just a comment to the guy who flipped out and cried libel to this film: it says on the box that it's a rehash of the story that inspired The Hills Have Eyes. No libel there--the box says what it is; it's a movie about the inbred family that ate people in caves... the same family who inspired both Hills Have Eyes films. I just wanted to clear that up for everyone. I haven't seen this movie YET. I am going to rent it eventually because I think it looks like fun. I dig horror movies that a lot of people view as shoddy and uninspired. By the by, I was QUITE impressed with the remake of the Hills Have Eyes. I think the boys who did High Tension did a magnificent job with it. I've got to admit, though, that the animal violence made me cry not once, but twice. So, again: this movie isn't libel or a ripoff: it's another take on an actual story. Amazing how the same psychopaths can inspire more than one movie, isn't it?
CharlesBastianFitts I love loads of horror films, and a rather wide variety, my favorites are stylized with a creepy atmosphere, but I can enjoy a film on gore alone if well done with a decently creepy premise or killer. This film, I wanted so badly to enjoy, but it was garbage, and most of the time I can find something to enjoy in films most consider trash. There's sadly nothing here. Its supposed to be about the legend of Sawney Bean, the head of an incestuous cannibalistic clan who lived in caves along the shores of Scotland over 400 years ago. What we have is a badly acted film with gore effects I literally have done better for Halloween costumes, with no real story to speak of. The cannibals barely do more than grunt and act like cave men, which is wrong. No one has a Scottish accent, the caves seem to be in the desert, plus its set in modern day, but sawney bean is supposed to still be alive and no explanation is given as to why. The actual legend of Sawney Bean is very creepy and great fodder for a horror film so why they decided to make this film without using ANY of the legend outside of the name sawney bean and cannibals living in a cave is beyond me. Texas Chainsaw Massacre part FOUR was better than this. If any real effort was put into making this film by its crew, thats very very pathetic as to what they were able to create. Disjointed, badly made, no plot drivel. There's really nothing here for even the most lenient critic to enjoy.Someone should properly make the Sawney Bean story into a film as that would actually be something to see, if done well.
