Getaway

I think the hardest category for a low budget film is horror. With that being said, this film was decent. The downfall was definitely the hillbilly's. They should have casted a little better actors.

Ok , the story was that of a 14 year old trying to scare friends on Halloween night. actors (i use this term loosely) were nothing more in quality than that of a drama class at a high school, in fact, worse. the cameraman must have been filming whilst on a skateboard with a wheel missing. i did however watch this total dross all the way through, in the main so you guys dont have to! everything in its entirety is poor about this piece of film , from wardrobe to dialogue, plot, effects, sound, camera work, oh its awful.

at best this is high school project level cinema.

"Getaway" blends traditional survival, backwoods horror and occult themes. The story starts innocent enough with almost clinched breadth. A lot of the premise hangs on pulling out those expected tropes and lulling you into believing you have seen this film before, sure with other characters and a different title. However "Getaway" offers a twist within a twist that really works well, and is wickedly delicious.

The characters are strong, female driven leads that look comfortable and entertaining on screen. The cast give up their craft to these women easily, which makes "Getaway" captivating. The pace of the film is a little too slow burn but so much of the story's suspense rests on a even, tense pace to let dark nature of the situation unfold. For the most part it works, I would have liked a bit more amplitude after the twist begins but the film doesn't really suffer.

The horror elements are mostly atmospheric and sound driven moments of chilling interaction between "predator and prey". There is some kill sequences but mostly the nightmare is a series of subjective situations where protagonists face off with the antagonists. Still the twist reveals all, I don't want to spoil the ending. It is a clever one. Indie horror fans will definitely enjoy this one.

I watched this last night and I must say that I did not expect the story to be this interesting when it reached near the end. without giving anything away I can say that those who are fans of gore and blood you will be disappointed as there is little to none, I was expecting it to be this....also, the 3 ladies are real lookers and played their part well.. good ending as well..

overall, if you cannot find a good movie., you may want to check it out...story is really easy to understand as well..

They did not even bother to finish editing in the sound effects for the guns. It was bad on a story level, (no plot), poorly edited, horrible acting.. If it were a student film they should get expelled.
