Your enjoyment of this film will depend on a few factors.
Warning: the husband's character in this movie is infuriatingly weak, submissive, and stupid. The way this guy was written acted really blew it for me. It was wayyy too hard to root for him and I can't understand how this strong woman would suffer this fool. If you can get past THAT, there are a few fun moments.
Also, all the baddies are written over the top like a "Straw Dogs" parody, and way too ridiculous to take seriously. It kind of vacillates between folk horror and comedy horror, and straight-up horror. The dog is great, and it takes too long for the "horror to set in--they must've shot on a very low budget because the Red Caps are barely in it. They're quite entertaining.
