This debut feature from director James Watkins gives a distinctively British twist to the staple American horror plot of a couple wandering off into the woods and falling foul of a bunch of crazies. Set fairly and squarely in Middle England, the movie pits canoodling couple Michael Fassbender and Kelly Reilly not against backwoods throwbacks, but feral kids from a nearby town who violently interrupt the pair's camping weekend. And, if you think the kids are bad, wait until you meet the parents! A film about teen violence and youths with knives is bound to attract controversy, and many will deplore the film's graphic gore, especially in such a near-the-knuckle context. Fright fans, though, will applaud this fresh take on a hoary old horror plot.

When a young couple goes to a remote wooded lake for a romantic getaway, their quiet weekend is shattered by an aggressive group of local kids. Rowdiness quickly turns to rage as the teens terrorize the couple in unimaginable ways, and a weekend outing becomes a bloody battle for survival.
