Storyline

Nursery teacher Jenny and her boyfriend Steve, escape for a romantic weekend away. Steve, planning to propose, has found an idyllic setting: a remote lake enclosed by woodlands and seemingly deserted. The couple's peace is shattered when a gang of obnoxious kids encircles their campsite. Reveling in provoking the adults, the gang steals the couple's belongings and vandalizes their car leaving them completely stranded. When Steve confronts them, tempers flare and he suffers a shocking and violent attack. Fleeing for help, Jenny is subject to a brutal and relentless game of cat-and-mouse as she desperately tries to evade her young pursuers and find her way out of the woods.

Chilling Horror worth watching!
28 August 2008 | by heart_land – See all my reviews

Saw this at Frighfest08 London! Fantastic movie, visually looked great. Couple get harassed by local youths and one mans pride turns the situation into a living nightmare. Really good pacing right till the end, started a teeny weeny bit twee with the couple being just a bit too nice and laughing geekily but thats OK, as the rest was ACE! worth watching!!! little torture bit in it isn't too bad, i don't usually like torture films, this wasn't one of them as it was needed for the plot and done with some taste, the hoodie boys are brilliant, superb acting they were pretty believable actually, and the lead actress Jenny was good, end sequence is pretty CHILLING!- which is a rarity these days.
