This is a terrible movie. Now,, I don't mean terrible in the sense that the actors can't act, directors horrible at directing, etc. I mean terrible in the sense that most of what happens in the movie is just terrible. The acting and direction is GREAT 👍
Steve is taking his gf Jenny up to a lake for the weekend, where he is planning to propose. They get to Eden lake and it is just the romantic getaway they were hoping for. Except that after they get settled with their camp site they are joined by some unruly and highly disrespectful teenagers. Steve and Jenny do their best to ignore them, but the ruffians agitate them to no end. Eventually the teens leave the beach area, and the couple enjoy their evening.
The next day they discover one of their bags, that had their car keys, missing. Then they see that their car isn't where they left it.
Eventually Steve and Jenny catch up to the unruly teens, who did steal their car (and trashed it about driving it all throughout the woods). Steve confronts them,, and these kids turn out to be more psychotic than they seemed,,,
As I said above,, there is a line in the movie where a mother says, "not my kids." As in,
my kids would never do that. "Not my kids." Smh. If there is one thing I've learned in my 40 yrs,, that phrase should never be uttered by ANYONE!!! Granted, parents should protect their children. Absolutely. However,, there is a GIANT difference between protecting and enabling/caudling/etc. Also,, the phrases "they're just kids," or that they're just "boys being boys," etc etc,, should also never be uttered by anyone. The pyschotic depravity shown by the teens in this movie should make everyone both sick and furious. Granted, it looks the ringleader Brett doesn't have a good home environment, but that doesn't matter!! How many other people come from the same or worse and don't let it turn them into sociopaths!
