Quality Entertainment All the Way
infernal-eternal23 December 2012
Three small groups of people find themselves in the same forest, for different purposes. First they each mind their own business, unaware of the others, but later on some individuals wander off for various reasons and start meeting people from the other groups, which leads to a series of complicated situations that they have to solve somehow.

Very simply put, this movie is hilarious from the beginning to the end. The way the story unfolds is great and leads to a lot of almost Pulp-Fiction-like situations, accompanied by well written dialogue that keeps you entertained the whole time. As a comedy this is a huge success. There isn't really much of the 'horror' element, except that there's blood and dead bodies, but you certainly won't be scared during this movie.

The center of the action is around two guys who need to bury a body. Neither of them seems to enjoy digging a hole in the ground, much less digging more than one. And they certainly don't need other people to pass by and see what they're doing there. But it wouldn't be fun if things went the way they want them to. It's just one of those days at the end of which you sit down exhausted and ask yourself "What the hell was all of this about?" That is if you make it to that point alive.

Excellent and very entertaining comedy.
