3/10
Standard peril-in-the-woods thriller
8 March 2017
Warning: Spoilers
PREY, IN COLD BLOOD is another film that utilises that tired old premise of having a bunch of characters going away for a quiet weekend in a cabin in the woods only to fall foul of unexpected menace. This one's not supernatural but rather mixes in criminal elements with the presence of a murderous gang desperate to get their hands on some loot in the area.

It's pretty poor for what it is, although given the budgetary constraints I suppose you can't hope for much more. The one twist is that the characters are all middle-aged rather than the usual teenage victims, so the acting is a little better than usual. The kill scenes are very poor indeed although there's one great topless scene. The film becomes an action adventure towards the climax. It's not the worst I've seen, although still far from the best.
