A war veteran's mountain-biking vacation turns nightmarish when he is captured by a psychopath.

Phelim O'Neill

Guardian

Just when you're settled into thinking you're watching another survival horror, there's a massive and quite bold change in direction and all bets are off.

Rated: 3/5

Derek Malcolm

London Evening Standard

It is short, sharp and competently made but only narrowly avoids falling into the torture porn genre.

Rated: 2/5

Anton Bitel

Little White Lies

presents one of the creepiest, most grotesque-looking antagonists seen since Max Schreck embodied Count Orlock in Nosferatu (1922). And if that does not whet the appetite, there is a scene of gratuitous toad-licking too...

C.H. Newell

Father Son Holy Gore

A PTSD allegory concerned with exactly how torturous war becomes emotionally on those affected by it, as well as those who've participated in it.

Radio Times

Zampaglione admirably maintains the mood of menace and makes his point about humanity's potential for evil without undue preachiness.

Shadows on the Wall

It cleverly weaves together nasty nightmares from both the Iraq occupation and World War II while constantly grossing us out. Although we never get very deeply involved.

it is dubbed, think from Italian, and story is bland at best, and very very predictable cheap low budget horror movie

Sure switches gears halfway through. It wasn't a smart or great horror, and there were plenty of tropes and cliches, but it wasn't bad. Plus it was short. It wasn't too flashy, simple is better in this case, so that was good. And I'm sure this was pretty low budget, which is also good considering. Cool ending. A bit nonsense if you think about it though. Also annoying soundtrack.

It was decent until it went down the torture porn route. The sadist in it was a cross between Pluto from The Hills Have Eyes,Nosferatu and Buffalo Bill. The ending is a major cop out and is like something from a bad American soap. Nice touch with G.W Bush on the wall of Dictators.

It's creepy, but the twist totally ruins it. Gorgeous setting in Italy near the borders with Austria and Slovenia. Saw it because of Testa (Frontiers).

I really liked this film. Just when you think you have it figured out it completely pulls the rug from under your feet and changes direction.
