From the jump, I knew that this one was going to be hard to follow. The look of it all, the setting, the wardrobe, the exterior, the actors themselves, and then, worst of all, their acting.
It's just all bad and not at all right.
None of it seems normal.
Certainly not believable.
In film, we have to believe.
Buy in.
Even in horror movies.
Especially in horror movies.
I knew that though a mere hour and a half, from the start, with the way this was going, it was going to be a long, long, loooong haul.
A fantastic three hour epic can seem like a viral clip.
A bad, short movie like this can seemingly go on for centuries.
One day I'll want this 90 minutes and five seconds back.
All of it.
So, an oddly-dressed family with perfectly combed hair looking freshly-showered living out of an outdated RV on vacation during a quite chilly time of year (you can see their breath in conversation) as they picnic outside, is encountered by, yikes, two guys in an old truck speaking with southern accents (but of course!) These two guys speak and say things nobody would ever say, ever to strangers, much less a family, and the patriarch in turn reacts how no one would ever react.
Later, they meet again, and more of this awkward interaction continues but this time one of the inexplicably, physically dirty rednecks has a shotgun and they're blocking the road.
Why?
Because this is stupid and it's doing what's been done before but this time, worse, and again, totally not believable.
But, you won't believe this, more bad decisions occur.
And we're not even fifteen minutes in.
And then there's a twist., And it gets the stupid to a whole 'nother ridiculous and grotesque level.
It's cute for a minute, but just a minute.
Then it's back to dumb and even dumber.
Who writes this stuff?
This seems real to you?
Oh, and there's even a lengthy musical interlude.
Yay.
I love a recital injected into the midst of all my horror movies!
You have to ask at some point in some movies, why?
Why is this happening?
Or, as in here, why is any of this happening?
Why are the characters doing what they are doing?
And in this movie, it just doesn't make any sense.
Any of it.
There is a beautiful love scene. A love scene? I know. But it is, and that is the only reason this garbage movie gets rated as high as it does.
This movie wants to be clever but it's not for all the reasons that I mentioned.
Aside from the amazing make out session there is nothing here except frustration and boredom.
This is one of the worst, if not the worst streaming films of 2024.
Take the high road. Live the high life. Don't waste your time and stay away from these Lowlifes.
