My rating: 8.5/10
Will I watch it again? YES!!!
This is one of the most intense horror flicks I've seen in a long time. The set up is great, the performances are great (and the choices that are made seen normal for a change), the script is right on and the direction is taut. Fassbender's character is put in a really nasty situation and it's interesting to see how he handles it. On one hand, it's just a bunch of bonehead kids, on the other though, they're some tough, threatening teenagers that could fuck your shit up if you underestimate them. No spoilers here but the ending is fucking beautiful. Insanely fucked up! It isn't pretty and I loved it. Find it. Watch it.
