Wow! Such a good movie.

It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

I dated a girl from North Yorkshire for a while and, let me tell you, the alleged local characters in this film are a lot more civilized and sophisticated than the real inhabitants of that region! Just kidding, of course, Yorkshire people are very nice and the city of York itself is a highly recommended place to visit. What we have here is a straightforward and unmistakable UK-version of "2000 Maniacs", and thus another umpteenth gory horror flick dealing with deranged, bloodthirsty and drooling hillbillies slaughtering a bunch of (somewhat) innocent people unfortunate enough to be passing through the village. I promised myself I wouldn't be watching derivative horror flicks like these for a while, but I seem to be drawn to them like flies to; - you know. "Inbred" is the type of film that exactly does what it promises on the tin, and in case you expected anything more, else or better, you only have yourself to blame. The film still starts off rather slow and tedious, with overlong and too detailed introductions of lead characters you know are going to die violently anyways, but once around the 45' mark, "Inbred" is an unrelentingly engrossing and trashy splatter flick. Four juvenile delinquents and their two counsellors are on a reform trip up in Northern Yorkshire. They deserve everything what's coming to them, since nobody should be as dumb to rent a cabin in a village called "Mortlake" or visit the local tavern that is named "The Dirty Hole". After being served lemonade that tastes like urine (it probably is urine) and hairy pork scratchings, the young thugs run into trouble with the locals and all hell breaks loose. If you're a fan of gore & filth, you simply must appreciate most of the butchering in "Inbred". The hicks, joyously led by hyperactive Seamus O'Neill, murder some of their victims live on stage during a sort of freaky circus show and there's plenty of bloodshed via shotguns, speeding vans, landmines and bear traps. The CGI isn't always convincing, but the gore certainly is extreme and repulsive! The mandatory banjo-music and folklore songs are naturally present as well, and the ending is much bleaker and nihilistic than I expected. Writer/director Alex Chandon will obviously never win any major film awards, but "Inbred" at least proves that he has enormously developed already since "Cradle of Fear" in 2001. That film was gross and sickening too, but even more dumb, amateurish and annoying. Recommended, but not whilst you're eating!

The movie wasn't as bad as expected, good kills and scary,weird looking characters. Most of the main characters overacted and made obvious dumb decisions just like in many other horror movies. The movie had a scary atmosphere and had some humorous moments. The ending was kind of a disappoinment because I expected something different. All in all it has positive and negative aspects, I liked the creative, almost funny killing scenes but I didnt like the fact that I felt no sympathy or connection to the main characters at all. If you expect a brilliant, creative horror movie with a great ending, it will disappoint you but it is worth watching.

If you enjoy a gory Horror flick with plenty of wry humour then this Is for you. Set In North Yorkshire, a small group of troubled teenagers who have been In local authority care are taken on a country break by two social workers to a run-down cottage on the outskirts of a village Inhabited by strange, Inbred yokels with a taste for using outside visitors as their sole source of bloodthirsty entertainment. Refreshingly different and with more than a little bloody violence(but with tongues firmly In cheeks)this Is an entertaining film with plenty of laughs mixed In with the horror that the villagers apparently consider a normal part of their everyday lives. A host of weird and wonderful characters are as frightening as they are funny, with Jim - the Landlord of the villages only Pub, the "Dirty Hole" - keeping everyone In check as both a father figure and, It seems, father In the literal sense of at least several of the strange-looking Inhabitants. The (fairly) strong Yorkshire accents may be a little difficult for some to fully understand (Indeed, our American friends may require subtitles, particularly where the "Eeh ba gum" song Is concerned),but the genuine Yorkshire lingo helps to make the film all the more authentic. Do any of the group manage to make It out of the village alive? Which ones will It be? Well, you'll have to watch It to find out. Great fun!

INBRED is one in a sub-genre of recent British splatter movies that celebrate their low budgets by throwing copious comedy gore into the mix. These films are often poorly plotted and rather predictable, but get by with sheer gusto and often the presence of familiar faces in the cast. If you like this, then be sure to check out others like DOGHOUSE or THE COTTAGE.INBRED is a film that celebrates Yorkshire culture with a storyline that has unfortunately been done to death a million times (see WILDERNESS and the like). A group of problem students head into the Yorkshire Dales for a break and before long they run into suspicious locales modelled on the ones from An American Werewolf in London. Later the film turns into a gory action movie as members of the group struggle to escape from various inbred hillbillies. I hated some parts (the drawn-out arena deaths and the general crudity) but in other areas the suspense is well handled and the effects are good.This film's directed by gore king Alex Chandon, who brings little wit or insight to the production, but if you like gore then it's not so bad. Jo Hartley is best known for playing Shaun's mum in THIS IS ENGLAND and bags the main role of the social worker here. Some of the kids are way too annoying and hateful, but others like Nadine Mulkerrin's Sam are okay. There are cameos from BEFORE DAWN's Dominic Brunt, who seems to be something of a horror fan, and Thalidomide actor Mat Fraser.
