Ratings and reviews

A very twisted and sadistic group of kids, but, shockingly they do exist in some towns. Good acting from all, keeps you on the edge of your seat. Very harsh ending too.

It's a very disturbing movie and it is very scary. The teenagers in it are extremely disturbed individuals and subject two people to unimaginable horror, real story of survival of the fittest . Excellent acting and a superb plot. A good solid horror.

With tense chase scenes and stranded in a woods. What's not to like. P's the twist at the end is the icing on the cake. First class
