Landmine Goes Click

If you don't like slow burning thrillers, you may want to stay away from this. How far will some people go and what are they willing to sacrifice? Human nature is a tricky thing. There is sometimes evil in the weirdest places and this should not be confused with anything racial or racist, it is about people. And not all are nice. Even if you may think they are or they look that way.

If you can stomach that (and more, boy is there more to deal with, which I can tell you, as a normal person, you will have some issues with it), you may be able to watch this. Enjoying this would make you seem like monster, parts of it that is. And still the movie is more than one landmine that goes click ... But in the end: is it worth it?

Alicia and Chris make the most naive choices.

They absolutely fail themselves.

Meanwhile... I did not expect the final act. That was seriously a Give Yourself Goosebumps moment.

I definitely recommend an alternate final act; however, the film is generally entertaining. I did fast forward through one part.

This film is one of the most disturbing, hard to watch films I've seen in a long time.

I feel like I need therapy to recover from it!

Won't be watching again.

Gona go rock in a corner now.

...it caters to a specific audience. namely those who enjoy movies like "i spit on your grave" or "they call her one eye".

while this is obviously not a high budget film it certainly does not "feel" cheap like some reviewers here claim. i suppose these lucky people have never had the "pleasure" to see a "cheap" film. don't be fooled. the entire presentation, camera work, sound, music and acting are solid...no more, no less.

someone also wrote that this movie had "nothing to say", which is almost comical considering the kind of film we are dealing with here. films like these do not focus on "story" or "character development". they mainly try and trigger basic human emotions in the audience by simple means and with varying success. it's called "exploitation cinema" and as mentioned before, it's not for everyone.

that being said i found the ending of this film to be uncharacteristically thought-provoking. ultimately it does have something to say and as a result manages to lift itself slightly above most of it's genre brethren.

fans of the genre won't be disappointed.

This is one of those movies where I constantly had mixed feelings about it. Sometimes I thought the movie wasn't going anywhere, plus that the acting is not the greatest but at the end I thought it wasn't a bad movie at all. There were some scenes that were hard to watch. Scenes where I wanted to jump out of my couch and beat the crap out of some characters but when I think about it, it is a good thing that I felt like that because it means that the story got to me. At one point I thought it was never going to end and one character in particular was really annoying me. It's a low budget movie, with no outstanding actors, but the story all fits together at the end. It's about revenge and it gets emotional. Moral of the story, don't do to others what you don't want to be done to you.
