Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Gary The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

Kinley This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Cristal The movie really just wants to entertain people.

allierochamed Luckily I was able to play a video game, while watching this movie. However, for those of you who are not so lucky, let me get right into it.First off, the killers are three teenagers. OK, I can dig that. but lets start it from the begging. These young kids are able to make no tracks, no sounds, all while tracking our victims. Two of our victims (who are grown men) have grown up around guns/nature. One seems to be able to track people as a hobby and also has a hunting dog. However, while they are sleeping, they are able to be stripped away of all their belongings. Have a tent completely dissapear from above them, their hunting dog has been captured without waking anyone by a single bark. (you would think these teenagers had some type of special equipment or tranquilizers for the dog p.s. NOPE) The next great part I just couldn't help but laugh is how our hardened veteran, STABS one of the young teenage boys with a stick in his leg, grabs the gun from the killer, beats the killer over the head with the gun a good 6-7 times to the point where I would wonder if the attacker is presumed dead or not. Only to watch our victim turn away to "load' the gun, and no more than 5 seconds the attacker stands up as if hes superman, and simply "BAM" stams our strong veteran character with one jab, and pushes him to his death...... Mind you, this killer had just been stabbed, beaten with the rear end of a rifle 6-7 times, and is also presumed to be in highschool, weighing 150lbs, stood right up and stabbed our victim.... BRAVO.TBH, I could continue writing this review, but I am getting tired just thinking about the movie..TLDR: Another, everyone dies but the girl movie. Oh yeah, and the killers are 150 lb teenage boys, who are not only supermen, but also uanble to be detected only until AFTER they have robbed your stuff.

Wuchak RELEASED IN 2014 and written & directed by Christopher Denham, "Preservation" chronicles events in the forests north of Los Angeles when two brothers & one of their wives embark on a camping trip in a closed preservation. Horror ensues when they are literally marked by some creepy pranksters... or is the culprit one of them? Pablo Schreiber & Aaron Staton play the brothers while Wrenn Schmidt plays the wife.This is a competently made slasher-in-the-woods flick with a fairly engaging story, convincing actors, nice locations, a professional score and all-around effective filmmaking. It doesn't hurt that Wrenn is easy on the eyes. There are predictable aspects, like the red herring in the latter first act, not to mention obvious elements borrowed from similar films, like "Deliverance," "Eden Lake," "Rambo 2," "I Spit on Your Grave" and even "Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2." Yet these things don't really harm the movie because they're pretty much par for the course in low-budget independent horror like this. Unfortunately, the film is ruined by constant "Yeah, right" moments, like a character turning his/her back on a wounded adversary, which I counted happening four times (!); and what occurred at the campsite is absurd. Another example is the way people constantly do noisy things in the quiet of the woods without the other person(s) hearing, like climbing on top of a porta potty. Why Sure! The director is clearly a professional-class filmmaker, but he needs to learn to work out implausible kinks in his screenplays, which just cause any viewer over 12-13 to roll-their-eyes. Maybe he should hire a writer, at least for fine-tuning scripts. It's a matter of using more imagination. The reason "Deliverance" (1972) is still talked about today is precisely because everything in it was BELIEVABLE. Nevertheless, there's a lot of good in "Preservation" and I encourage fans of the horror-in-the-woods genre to check it out. THE FILM RUNS 1 hours & 27 minutes and was shot in Santa Clarita & Los Angeles, California. GRADE: C/C- (4.5/10)

iamtherobotman Holy Hell!! Where can i start with this one? Well, the start of the Film was OK! up until our Protagonists awaken to find all their stuff (including the tent around them) gone. From that moment it's as though the writer just gave up on the project. They decide to head back to the car but don't know where it is at which point the Combat vet essentially decides they should follow the Sun and that having no car keys isn't an issue as he can hot wire a car. After walking part way with the happy couple of the trio he then decides that he's going to go back and find his dog that also went missing during the night....so who's going to hot wire the car? The Kills are terrible to say the least - Combat Vet in particular is a pretty awful Kill and more fitting to a Man who hasn't seen any Combat or indeed (lets take this to a base level) Films in his life, turning his back on the Masked Killer ( after having bludgeoned him with the butt of the rifle mind you) before turning to face a perfectly with it Killer, who promptly dispatches our Combat Vet. Once she is left alone and preps herself Rambo style things really do go from the absurd to the outright ridiculous. In one scene she sets off a series of smoke flares creating a screen of smoke over a relatively small area, however it seems sufficiently large enough to completely separate our Trio of Masked Killers so none are actually in the same vicinity( and i wonder if they're in the same State to be honest). These Killers who up until this point have worked as a cohesive team, dispatching two Men( one a Combat Vet ) with such ease, now struggle to dispatch a lone female who by her own admission can't climb a rock face(which i'll come to in a moment) or hot wire a car or indeed kill anything since she's a Vegan. Now, this Rock face which she HAD to climb in order to get out seemed to be bypassed by our (now obviously Teen) Killers riding Mountain Bikes. The Film had no cohesion, no sense. It seemed almost every scene you notice another glaring error. I didn't particularly go into this with any great expectation but i came out it absolutely numb. I feel i lost IQ points by watching this utter drivel and were i to discover it was written by a Child in Primary School i honestly wouldn't be overly shocked or stunned by that. There were one or two semi decent parts....well one, the beginning was OK as mentioned earlier but there was no Character development, no sympathy with the Protagonists. The Killer Kids NEVER spoke to each other which had me believe they were Mute until the eldest got a Phone call from "Mom". The Female lead went from Rabbit in the headlights to Deranged, determined for retribution in the blinking of an eye when in all honesty she could've made her way to the Main Road hitched a lift and informed the Police of the Brutal Murder of her Husband and Brother in Law. I could go in with faults but i'll let you decide for yourself should you be brave or bored enough to sit through this, which, please for the sake of the Children, don't!

sgcim I really can't stand it when directors rip-off a foreign film, and think that people won't realize they've ripped it off because the original was a foreign film. In this case, the losers that made this flick ripped off the Spanish movie, "El Rey De La Montana", and just changed the ending and a few plot points so they wouldn't be sued. While they also took some things from other films that have been mentioned, as soon as I saw the reveal scene of the kids shooting at them and texting each other, there was no doubt in my mind that they expected the audience to be shocked that they were kids having fun.If I hadn't seen 'El Rey De La Montana', I probably would have been shocked, but since I did, I just watched it and waited to see if they gave ERDLM some credit at the end. If they had given it some credit, I might have given the movie a higher rating, but since they didn't, I gave it a 1. The only difference is they made a ridiculous 'final girl' ending, where the wife succeeds in killing the three kids, where the military guy and his brother failed. In EDDLM there was a much more realistic ending, which I won't spoil for anyone who hasn't seen that superior film.
