Quarries

Like so many movies these days this started off pretty well and the acting wasnt as bad as some make out but the story needed a lot more work - it seemed to just degenerate into a stalk and slash with no actual thought for a story or any development further than the first 15 minutes in terms of characters or plot.

Sad because it could have been a modern female Deliverance if it had been done right. The producers should have taken a lesson from the excellent all female movie "The Descent" which is in my top 10 horrors and was a superb example of tension , terror and the descent into madness.

You have to laugh (and be careful) when checking out reviews on IMDB to decide whether to rent or not to rent a movie - check out all the 10/10 or even 8/10 reviews - they all have just one review under their belts and almost all at the same time - Why cant IMDB weed these out its obviously the makers or someone involved with the film. You can tell how desperate they are as soon as two bad honest reviews appear immediately two or three 10/10 ones appear but that cannot help it to skew the rating much as it still hits the 4 mark which is probably what it deserves.

Even the deaths were not remarkeable, you would think without a story they could have used some sense and provided us with some unusual death sequences.

To be fair the acting was ok , the scenery and photography were good but the male characters were not that convincing or threatening; even the mad, feral "Wrong Turn" nutter was about as frightening as a fanny bag!

What's wrong with people giving this movie the highest rating possible? Are you related to somebody that made or was involved in this movie? I think it's not very mature to try to make people watch this movie if isn't good. And no it is not good at all. The acting is weak, nothing special to remember after watching their performances. But the worst is the story. It's basically a bunch of women being chased by a group of men in the woods. If they would at least take one minute to explain why they do such thing it might be better, but no apparently nobody thought this was necessary to explain. Also the men have like a dog human or whatever that follows their command, and again absolutely no explanations about how he became like that or anything. So giving this movie the highest rating possible is just foolish and dumb.

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!

I really need to read more reviews before I watch a film as again I've been caught out by what I can only describe as the production team reviewing their own film.

Firstly to compare this to "Deliverance" is beyond a joke. The acting is poor, the characters are dull and predictable and the script is lacking.

If you look up cliché in a dictionary it would say "watch Quarries".

I gave it two stars because the white Ford mini bus they had was the same as the one I hired when in Florida last year and it reminded me of a great family holiday. The film however reminded me of the black and white films my Gran would watch on a Saturday afternoon, usually asleep.

Not a film for me.

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....
