When nursery teacher Jenny escapes to the country for a relaxing weekend away with her boyfriend, she is unaware of a romantic surprise he has in store. The location is perfect. A lake enclosed by woodlands is seemingly deserted and the scene is set for a picturesque proposal. But before the happy couple can enjoy the retreat, their peace is shattered by a gang of violent youths. What begins is a shocking and unrelenting game of cat-and-mouse, as Jenny is forced to fight back against her aggressors.
Latest Review
Very provocative "true" story
What I loved most: the chilling ending
What I really hated: nothing
Youth violence is surfacing all around the world..And in England, there is even campaign against "knife violence". This movie tells how dysfunctional parents can raise dysfunctional kids. This movie tells what sickening pleasures many modern youths derive from showing disrespect to peace and order. This movie tells how unprovoked violence could happen to you and me. This movie paints a very bleak and accurate picture of the social ills that we "normal" folks have to put up with......the question is, just when is our breaking point?
