Safety in Numbers

i thought this was a truly awful film . Nothing in it made any sense , even by horror movie standards.The premise wasn't too bad but it just fell to pieces after the first 5 minutes its an Australian movie and the male actors have Australian accents but the women have these terrible fake American accents and one of the womens accent is so appalling i have no idea what country she is supposed to be from . the ending made even less , i presume it was to set it up for a sequel but there is no way this dog of a film would get the funding for a sequel . i was surprised it got the funding at all sense than the rest of the movie. after watching this movie i tried to find a way to get in touch with the director to sling some abuse , no other movie has driven me to that point before don't watch it unless your video store has a ' didn't like it? get your money back ' policy

Six former reality-TV stars (three female & three male) from 'Castaway Island' are whisked away to a seemingly deserted island for a reunion show. Once there, they're hunted and killed one by one. Could it be this Wesley guy that everyone thinks is crazy or someone else entirely? The better question is will you even care to find out one way or the other?

Proving that America doesn't have a monopoly of unoriginal, hideously contrived, badly acted and scare free B-horror films, this Australian travesty rears it's ugly head to further trivialize and dumb down fans of the horror genre. This relatively blood-free, heavily clichéd mockery is deathly boring on top of all that and to add insult to injury, the ending doesn't make a lick of sense

My Grade: F+

(2005) Safety In Numbers HORROR/ THRILLER

Low-budget straight-to-rental film co-produced, written and directed by David J. Douglas from Australia involves a group of teens visiting an island after one of them wins a million dollars at a "Survivors" game show. Upon going over there, an unknown jealous opponent waits for them to go there to take them all out for the reason of being a sore loser. Oh yeah, and tensions clash among the groups when their beach resort unknowingly blows up- they pointlessly blame each other. If you don't mind a movie with a lot of pointless babbling (to identify with the characters and it's situations) this film might be for you, otherwise use a "fast-forward" button while playing which is what I did and still be able to make out what was going on. Stupid beyond belief that there were times, I had to press my hand onto my head. Bomb.

Great to see a adult movie without all that excess blood and gore. Believable story with no supernatural. You will watch it right to the end. What should be a happy return for the group that made a reality show on a island turns to life threatening problems when someone tries to kill them. It is good to see a girl saving the day rather then the normal guy and the girls being hopeless. Excellent acting and production values. Loved the background music. Women would love this show and guys will be happy with the classy actresses. End leaves things unanswered for the sequel. I think the last ones did survive but we will have to wait and see. Well worth a look.

It takes a long time for the film to get going. Not at all gripping, exciting or scary. I was very glad that there was nothing else on TV to watch. If you have seen The Breed then you have seen the better version of this film. If you have not seen it then watch it rather than this film. It is the type of movie that you watch to the end hoping that it will get better.

The film actually gets going after about fifty mins, not that it's to going. The sound track is typical early nineties and the acting matches the soundtrack, Although this review is very negative, if you do watch this film for more than forty mins then keep going you may see a little blood...... Typical low budget cast and low budget effects.
