Eden Lake (2008)
Pointless torture/death wallow (necessary spoiler inside)
12 September 2011
Warning: Spoilers
This is a long, sadistic, pointless excursion through two nice people who are slowly hunted down and slaughtered like pigs. Telling you this up front is NOT a spoiler. It's an attempt to save other people from wasting there time on this horrible piece of garbage.

The film is very typical of the kind of stuff put out by Eli Roth and others, but it is totally artless in its execution. If I had to describe its closest match, I'd say "The Others". Except this one exceeds it by far in terms of pointless sadism.

I really feel sorry for Michael Fassbender. I guess he couldn't be choosy about his roles back then, but this is ridiculous.
