A low budget movie, not a bad sound track, but weak acting and effects lets it down. Also the character in the cowboy hat has an amusing resemblance to Gary Glitter from the 70's british rock scene, it's an unfortunate look for him!

It's one of those movies that intrigues, you have to watch it despite the shortfalls to find out what happens.

Filmed in the Highlands of Scotland, it's a great advertisement for the beautiful landscape up there and, surprisingly, the weather appeared to be kind during the shoot.

The lodge location is available to hire should you want to experience the wilderness of the Highlands.

Overall, if you have nothing else worth watching this is worth a try, just don't expect a blockbuster.

The film opens by showing us the antagonist (Marta Svetek) bleeding a victim. We know this is a cult from the masks and a buck skull on a tree. We then shift to our final girl Erin (Hannaj Bang Bendz) the title girl. We later discover she is on rage control medication. She was an abduction victim and tortured for 14 years. She is going to meet her boyfriend Adam's (Derek Nelson) parents. They meet up with his brother Michael (Luke Aquilina) and his gold digger girlfriend du jour Sarah (Antonia Whillans). The trip will take a day and a half which is odd for Scotland which is 274 miles across at its widest point. As you might guess the two plots come together as they plan to turn the girls into victims, harvesting them for their youth making adrenachrome. Erin who has gone to the Uma Thurman School of Fighting has a few surprises for them.

PLOT SPOILER. The film actually has no surprises. Escape. Recapture. Escape. Final one-on-one protagonist/antagonist fight. It can't be any different. Decent for the genre.

Last night, I was unable to sleep. I put this movie on around midnight. To less disturb my wife's sleep, I kept the sound off.

And this movie was watchable. The script seemed okay, not remarkable at all. Once the action kicks off, the movie gets ridiculous.

Our protagonist is supposed to be an incredible fighter. That's fine. She uses her legs in combat a lot. That's also fine. But her kicks include some bizarre kicks that would not be effective.

Also, without the sound, attention is drawn to how poor the action choreography is. There's a lot of follow-through on punches, and characters that are being hit don't have proper reaction to it. This is hard to explain in words, but the result is easy to notice.

The action is even more conspicuous by the large amount of cuts during any of these sequences. The same hit will be shown in quick succession. I suppose you don't want to waste multiple cameras shooting a scene.

The plot of it isn't terribly special. It's hard to call the family a cult. More like an underground business. They harvest blood from people while torturing them, which releases some chemicals into blood, making the blood into some sort of rejuvenating potion.

The longer the movie goes on, the action gets more ridiculous, and culminates in the fantastic decision to have the protagonist literally punch through her ex-boyfriend, clutching his heart. The way this is shot doesn't feel like it was intended to be funny.

From there, she goes on to fighting the big bad, and... the fight ends with the villain accidentally causing her own heart attack.

So, no satisfying conclusion.

I returned to the movie later and listened to some of the performances, and other reviewers are correct. It appears that every character is hamming their lines up.

My favorite little thing - the sister turns her back and looks away from other characters twice in an effort to look cool. It's conspicuous, and it happens only so that the character can turn around dramatically.
