Did not do the original justice. Not sure where to start.
Some decent acting, but good actors cant save a movie with a bad script.
When spending loads of cash to make a movie, why would you use prosthetics that look like a prop at your local haunted house? Or not hire someone to serve as technical advisor for the firearms you used. Just note, the AR15 platform rifle used in the film, described as "legal" somehow fires in automatic mode. That only happens in liberal minds. Also if the weapon is out of ammunition, and for some reason the bolt is closed, the firing pin will fall once, producing a metallic "click". It will not produce any more sounds if trigger is pulled, unless first charged. Also very near end, when confronted by 3 hill jacks, our victim points an already empty rifle and attempts to fire it. One hillbilly states that its on safe (even though the safety was never engaged, and cannot be engaged in condition three, after trigger pulled) so our victim rotates to fire mode to shoot all three (even though the weapon was out of ammo and never reloaded).
Also several times the kids are threatened by a rabid looking dog multiple times. You have a rifle, shoot it! Had no problem shooting the hermit on two separate occasions, but won't wack the rabid dog threatening you? Really?
There is a scene where victim attempts to take his suffering friend out if her misery. He accomplished this buy causing her more misery than she was in. Shovel edge to the pie hole, really. Never thought about decapitating her with it, or just use flat side to bash her over the head? Then he covers her in fuel and sets her on fire, because we all know that burning to death is pain free for 4 mins.
Also wanted to talk about the hillbilly law enforcement. At the beginning we have our lady cop show up to a crime scene, and is not at all concerned about the vehicle with bullet holes covered in blood. Guess she didnt learn about homicide or preserving evidence in the police academy. At the end she receives a radio message that if she sees suspect, to shoot on sight. Great, maybe in Venezuela. Law enforcement cannot even shoot a fleeing felon, let alone the surrendering suspect.
Lastly in opening scene, one of out kids is bitten by an inbreed hill child, and instead if seeking medical attention, rinses wound out with a hose, because thats pretty much the same thing. Ridiculous.
Theres plenty more, but thats all i have time for.
Believe it or not I've seen worse, but please dont waste your time.
