THE WORLD DOESNT SEEM TO GET ENOUGH OF THE HILLIBILLIES,I GUESS. BEING A FRENCH HORROR I THOUGHT THAT IT MIGHT GIVE A LITTLE TWIST HERE N THERE. BUT IT DIDNT. N STILL I ENJOYED IT. WHEN YOU TAKE WRONG TURN UP IN THE HILLS SHIT HAPPENS. N THIS MOVIE WILL SHOW YOU EXACTLY WHAT TYPE OF SHIT :)
SYNOPSIS: A group of friends on vacation decide to venture onto a trail high up in the mountains that has been closed for repairs. The climb proves more perilous than planned, especially as they soon realize that they are not alone. The adventure turns into a nightmare.
YOU CAN EASILY GUESS WHERE THIS MOVIE IS GOING. ITS GOING THE WRONG TURN MEETS THE HILLS HAVE EYES WAY. BUT TO ENJOY A MOVIE EVEN AFTER KNOWING WHATS IT GONNA BE ABOUT IS TREMENDOUS. AND THATS WHAT HAPPENS WITH THIS MOVIE. YOU COULD TELL WHATS COMING BUT YOU WILL BE TOO BREATHLESS TO REACT. WATCH OUT FOR THAT ONE BRIGDE CROSSING SCENE. YOU WILL BE PANTING FOR SURE.
PART OF THE PRAISE FOR THE ABOVE TO ABEL FERRY WHO DIRECTS WELL. HE KEEPS UP THE DREAD GOING TILL THE LAST REEL. AND HE TRIES TO SHOW OFF SCREEN VIOLENCE RATHER THAN GO THE WRONG TURN WAY. WELL DONE :) KUDOS TO THE SCREENWRITERS FOR A DECENT SCREENPLAY WHICH DOES JUST ENOUGH TO KEEP PEOPLE INTERESTED.
THE ACTING DEPARTMENT IS SUPERB. THE FIVE FRIENDS HAVE BEEN ACTED OUT WONDERFULLY. WE REALLY GET SUCKED INTO THEIR LIVES N WE REALLY CARE WHEN THEY ARE IN DANGER. APART FROM A NOT-MUCH SCARY MOUNTAIN MAN. EVERYTHINGS NICELY DONE IN THE ACTING DEPARTMENT.
EDITING N SOUND IS DECENT. BUT WHAT DOES WONDERS IS THE CINEMATOGRAPHY. I WAS DAMN SCARED LOOKING AT THE ABYSS AS OUR ACTORS CLIMBED UP UP N UP. REALLY DANGEROUS LOOKING SHOTS TAKEN FROM INNOVATIVE ANGLES. NICE!!
ALL IN ALL A MOVIE WHICH CAN MAKE YOU THINK ABOUT GOING UP THE HILLS WHICH HAVE BEEN CLOSED FOR CONSTRUCTION. AND IF YOU HAVE MILD VERTIGO LIKE ME PREPARE FOR SIDE EFFECTS :)
HighTension Meter- 7/10.
