Some twattish,
city-boy arsehole develops car trouble whilst out in the sticks and spends the
night at a cottage belonging to a seemingly pleasant yokel and his daughter.
Of course, if that
was the full plot of the film it'd be very uneventful. The makers were probably
aware of that, so they decided to make things a little more interesting with
bits of swearing, substance abuse, incest and murder.
That's a bit more
like it. Who would wanna watch the first version? Some Tarquin ponce with Audi
trouble spending the night under a thatched roof? No thank you!
Anyway, as you may
have gathered, the yokel and his daughter aren't as pleasant as initially
suggested and it all goes a bit wonky.
I was ready to
dismiss it as another forgettable low budget Brit horror, but the last fifteen
minutes put some real effort in and, in my humble, redeem it greatly with some actual
horror and a great bit of soundtrack 'casting' that sets the mood very well.
