hyped garbage

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

I have just had the pleasure of watching this wonderful film. I think if I ever see it again I may just implode with excitement.I know I ticked the spoilers box thing, but to be fair, not a lot really happens to spoil.She's really stupid, gets roped into things so easily she deserves her fate, she screams a lot, people get shot, more people get shot, totally bland sex scenes happen, ridiculous deaths occur, more people get shot, someone gets stabbed and then it ends.I can't actually bring myself to remember the plot - as there isn't one.Do not watch this film. I think it sounded pretty good as an idea, but was realised in such an awful way that every copy needs to be found, shredded, burned and then dumped somewhere on the dark side of the moon.

Just too many plot holes to make this film understandable. Why was the'sister' sick? How did the girl's boyfriend get captured? Who was the guy banging at the window trying to get in? What did they do with the police car? Didn't any other police follow up their two missing deputies? Why didn't she take the other deputies gun for her boyfriend? Why didn't she just clobber the 'sister' with the urn instead of chocking her with the ashes? Why did she and her brother run to the river? Why not run to the road? Why not look in the police car for keys and just drive away? Why did the 'brother' go so far from the house to fish? I could go on and on.

By now i'm a bit afraid to watch flicks coming from the After Dark label. Most of them are okay but aren't gory or do has anything to show. There are of course some exceptions sadly this isn't. I just couldn't care what happened with anybody in Rogue River. The acting was okay but not that it will win prices but it was a bit low on every grade. And it did also scriptwise. There's nothing original in it not that it has to be but it doesn't have anything to add towards the genre. Once the flick was over I thought, what did I just see and I couldn't really say it.It's low on blood and gore, there's no nudity and some things you just could see coming. It's okay to watch it if you have nothing else to do or to watch but this wont become a classic. Luckily the way it was shot was rather good. Gore 1/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 2/5 Story 2/5 Comedy 0/5

Just another piece of trash to de-sensitize us to man's cruelty to man. Movies like this are not my idea of entertainment, they just feed the sick minds of those that may actually do these things to another human being. Films like this breed contempt, and have a lot to do with what is terribly wrong with our society today ... as though it actually gives us permission to be cruel towards one another. If the DVD cover had said a little more about what this movie consisted of, I would have passed it by. The title gave me a totally different idea of what the film might be ... a survival film? Basically, the acting was poor, as was the script, and this one goes right where it belongs ... in the trash.LadyShalene
