I will be the first to acknowledge that although this is a terrific film, it will certainly NOT appeal to everyone. When I watched it with my wife, she was pretty disgusted by the plot (it is pretty adult and pretty creepy) but I wasn't. I was actually fascinated how the film violated many of the unwritten rules of film--especially the amazingly non-traditional ending.
The film concerns a group of city folk who head to the Appalachian wilderness to hunt and canoe. Unfortunately, a group of man-rapin' hillbilly trash attack--and the group members are forced to take the law into their own hands. This makes for a very creepy film (don't even get me started about Ned Beatty's big scene) as well as a suspenseful one--very suspenseful.
Overall, the film has a lot going for it--a terrific soundtrack, a 100% original story and an ending that just blew me away! Well worth seeing...if you can take the very adult plot.
