Here we are again, boys and girls. Time to turn out the lights, turn up the volume and GET NAKED...or, at the very least, watch this movie.

The movie in question is Eden Lake. trailer

A young couple go camping at a beach. They meet a gang of young punks that play their rap music too loud, smoke and swear. Eventually things get out of hand and the couple are in mortal danger.

It's pretty good. It's a little weird how terrible things get after one accident. Shit goes from bad to worse to fucked up to what the shit is going on. It's an extremely grim movie, I felt like shit after it was over. Good acting, directing. I liked it. Check it out if you can stomach depressing horror movies. It might actually be too much for some people.

I give it 4 cars that won't start out of 5.

Side note: I watched Hunger Games yesterday. I thought that movie was supposed to be good? The only bright spot was the lead actress. She's good. The rest was blehhh.

Oh yeah this movie that I've never got around to watching even when it got festival critical acclaim.

The guys are chavs with knives, right?

Chavs with knives indeed.

Man that trailer sucks, it kind of showed the whole story. I think that's a wicked concept for a horror movie though, teenagers make pretty frightening villains when you think about it.

@Bwast: Have you seen Winter's Bone? Jennifer Lawrence is phenomenal in it.

I love depressing horror movies, I just watched "Pet Cemetery" yesterday.

I'll check it out, thanks.

Is that a Dizzee Rascal tune in the trailer?

Is Danielle Harris in this one? I couldn't tell if that was her.
