Die Beute

I saw some reviewer comparing it to "Deliverance". How I wish that was true. The movie could have been nice if they showed something. Probably some cuts were made to receive a more friendly rating. So what's left is a simple story, some bad dialogue, some wooden acting and some OK acting. Nothing new. Could have been much better though....... if they only would have watched the classic "Deliverance" before they started filming;-)

The paramedic Katherine "Kat" (Nicole Marie Johnson) joins an expedition through the wilderness composed by women and led by Jean (Sara Mornell). Most of the women are problematic and the objective is to share the experience of living together in the nature for a couple of days. However there is a fire in the woods and Jean is forced to change the traditional route per another through an unknown area. Jean, Kat, Wren (Carrie Finklea), Madison (Leisha Hailey), April (Nicole DuPort), Joy (Joy McElveen) and Brit (Rebecca Colette McFadzien) start walking while Jean's partner drives his van to the destination to bring them back. However a group of psychopaths live in the area and they hunt the women down. Will someone survive?

"Quarries" is an entertaining thriller with strong female characters. The plot is predictable and not original, but the conclusion surprises since this type of slasher usually ends with only one (or none) survivor. The rednecks are psychopath but there is no development of who they are. The women are reasonably developed. The IMDb Rating is not fair but there are many overrated reviews including a ridiculous comparison with the classic "Deliverance". My vote is six.

Title (Brazil): Not Available

Normally I wouldn't waste my time reviewing a movie like this, but I feel like someone needs to offset that other review which absolutely raves about this and gives it a 10/10. Note that that's that reviewer's *only* review to date (how'd ya like that use of "that"? :) That review was apparently written by the director's significant other or best friend because this movie is, at best, mediocre. Basically, a bunch of women get chased around in the woods and bloodied up. Empowerment!

Another installment of the cliché 'hillbillies killing everyone in the middle of nowhere for no reason' sorry excuse for thrillers, this 'movie' is COMPLETELY AVOIDABLE. Don't believe the handful of glowing reviews which are undoubtedly fake reviews by crew/ cast members/ paid agencies. Writing anything more on this movie would be wasting more time I will never get back....

Excellent character play on basic story line, well directed , good steady pick up on the action. The characters are believable, the production scenery and woods environment plays perfect;y I to the narrative of life and death.

Very much in the suspense of the first Friday 13th and Halloween genre. The escalation Nd blood trail coupled with suspense leaves a shock factor,conclusion. 8 of 10
