Eden Lake
In 2009, I didn't review movies, so much as briefly recomend a few via my Facebook account, This was one of them...
Okay, so strictly speaking, 'Eden Lake' is a thriller, not a horror - But I'm willing to bend the rules a little here, as the film is, without question, designed to invoke terror in the viewer.
Uncomfortable, if not downright unpleasant to watch, 'Eden Lake' is by no means a "fun" movie. The plot is a simple one - a couple go out to an idyllic spot near a reservoir for a camping trick, only to find that the part of the beach they have chosen is a favourite hangout of a bunch of ASBO kids. Rather than just find a new spot of beach, the couple decide to stand their ground and stand up to the hoodies - who retaliate with horrific and brutal consequences.
