Great Movie for comedy and slasher lovers alike!

Rating: 9/10 (18 April 2011)

I watched this movie expecting an temporary escape for 2hrs but it gave me so much more.
The premise is simple, a couple of college kids go camping where a two hill billies moved in and trouble ensues.
The cinematography is great, not shying away from any visceral shots, and the lighting set a creepy yet light hearted atmosphere.
The writing is brilliant, the main leads appear to be one dimensional at first but as the movie progresses I began to really take a shine to their antics. The characters are funny, but not one note, and the comedy goes in naturally with the gore. None of the jokes feel forced and are funny, with only a couple relying on cheap slap stick and toilet humor.
If I were to fault it I would say that some of the action scenes are very outrageous, and one scene just made my palm slap my face with such force my nose nearly cracked (it involves a person trying to work a revolver, derp).
All in all it was a great movie, that not only entertained me but also had endearing characters that are hard to find in this genre today.
8.5/10
