UHM - Eden Lake

If you miss the film when it hits limited theaters this Halloween, you can be sure to catch it on DVD in January. Extras include commentary by director James Watkins and a making-of featurette.

You can now view some new pics in the gallery and the trailer on your left, which looks oddly similar to the French flick Ils (Them).

In a shocking reversal Last House on the Left type film, this woodsy thriller was shocking and violent. This movie starts out really slow but peaks in the end as a gruesome and unsettling horror ride. The UK has come out with some good horror in the last few years and this is another notch on their belt. If you don't like Hollywood fluffy endings with puppy dogs and butterflies, this movie is for you.

I personally didn't like the flick.

This is survival horror at its best. I thought this was pretty unique for a horror film, and no, I'm not interested in how many movies anyone can name-drop aimlessly that happen to have kids as villains. That's not impressive; it's stupid! Eden Lake is extremely unnerving, has an excellent cast of complex characters (especially some of the kids), and has the most evil, yet still very human villain, I can recall. If it's similar to any of the aforementioned, it would be Lord of the Flies, but still, this one's very good on it's own, and worth watching. However, this one for me falls in the same category with Requeim for a Dream, as an excellent and intense movie that I would rather never see or think about again.

This may not be entirely original, but what is these days? It still looks quite promising, and I'm going to give it a check.

Fritter, you're right on the money. I'd bet that alot of people have never heard of films like "Devil Times Five" and The Children. Which are both from the late 70s/ early 80s. Children were killers in them. Let's go earlier to the 60s with the original " Village of The Damned" and "Children Of The Damned". Killewr kids in films is not a new concept.

OMG people you can stop acting like evil murderous children are anything new. THEM was not the first and this will not be the last. All I have to say about the Hostel 2 and Wolf Creek comments is that you people should watch more movies, especially horror, and it would help to watch them in their entirety.
