Trivia:

Erica Leerhsen did a lot of her own stunts in the movie.

Goofs:

Factual errors: When Kimberly Caldwell calls her agent he complains that it's 4am in Los Angeles. She's driving in West Virginia, and the shadow the car casts indicates the sun is directly overhead, so it's about midday (the shadow sits under the car in every shot). However, if it's 4am in LA, it should be 7am in West Virginia, so the sun should cast long shadows.

Quotes:

Jonesy: Okay, from now on, you'll be the uptight lesbian sister I never had. Deal?

A movie omelet, but a good one

This movie essentially carries a plot and contains scenes we have definitely seen before. All the actors are cliché actors and everything you see has been done before. However, this was done better than most other movies.

The plot revolves around a reality TV show in the woods and of course the cannibals are there. It is simple but was good enough to keep me intrigued to go with the movie. There were characters you root for and characters you wanted to die like in any movie, but the way they died was awesome. There was a plethora of blood and guts and even some tense moments.

A lot better than most other sequels in regards to similar movies like Jeepers Creepers 2, The Ring 2, The Grudge 2, Hills have eyes II, etc. I do recommend renting this so you can cheer for those awesome gory kills and waiting to see if they get their revenge.
