Three family members head deep into the woods for a hunting trip that doubles as a distraction from their troubles at home. When all of their gear is stolen, they turn on each other, but soon realize there are much more treacherous forces at work.

Sitting in his room, surrounded by posters of Deliverance and Eden Lake, writer/director Christopher Denham flicks through his copies of '101 movie templates' and 'Foreshadowing for Dummies', muttering to himself: 'Better stolen well than conceived poorly. Better stolen well than conceived poorly.'

The people rating this so low are nuts. This is like if Eden Lake had a more cathartic ending. Wrenn Schmidt is extremely underrated and I was rooting for her the entire time.
And I can not stress this enough, but FUCK. THEM. KIDS.
Good cast and solid premise. Pity it’s executed in such a lifeless way. It’s so emotionally inert.
This little survival horror movie takes up its entire first half before anything interesting happens and things get going. Very simple and without any surprises, it then plays out all the standard genre tropes. Sometimes more effectively, sometimes less so. However, it is only sometimes fun and it never quite manages to get really entertaining. Also because of some very dumb decisions by the protagonists.
i dont care for movies abt bored/boring white boys who kill people for fun 'n' games or movies abt women who are only ~~strong~~ with a will to survive because they're pregnant
A new trend within the indie horror offerings of the last couple of years appears to be the attempt to ground story with the characters within said story. Slow starts centered on character development and atmosphere-building have become staples of the indie horror genre. In a perfect world, such start would invest the viewer in the characters, and pave the way for a damn good horror viewing. Unfortunately for the viewer, such is not the case here.
Married couple Wit and Mike Neary (along with Mike's brother Sean) head into the forest for a weekend of camping. While not explained in a satisfying way, mention is made that the whole area has been abandoned and as a result, the trio…

"Preservation" ist ein Horrorfilm aus dem Jahr 2014.
Wir begleiten drei junge Menschen:
Mike und Sean sind Brüder, Wit ist die Frau von Mike. Ebenfalls dabei ist ein Hund. Die vier fahren gemeinsam tief in den Wald, in ein Gebiet, in dem die Brüder als Kinder gerne gespielt haben. Dieses Mal wollen sie etwas Spaß haben und nebenbei noch jagen.
Der erste Tag verläuft recht normal, bis Sean Wit am Lagerfeuer etwas zu intime Fragen stellt.
Am nächsten Morgen wachen sie auf und bemerken, dass ihr gesamtes Hab und Gut geklaut wurde – die Waffen, Essen, Handys und selbst der Hund sind weg.
Erst hält Sean seinen Bruder…
tengo una sola pregunta... pq?
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
The Geico ad executives watched this film and then made the "When you're in a horror movie, you make bad decisions. That's what you do" commercial.
Making and writing movies is not an easy task but this film deserves criticism. The script should have been run by more people.
The story is about three people who go camping and then find themselves in serious danger.
The locations were beautiful and really worked well for the story. There was some legitimate tension and the acting was what was needed.
The biggest flaw is there are too many moments that will annoy the viewer and take them out of the story.

Wit and Sean are a married couple and…
I remember watching this movie when it was called Eden Lake
I've a soft spot for the survivalist horror film, but it's true that it isn't the most progressive or surprising of subgenres in horror. This doesn't buck the trend and is more than a bit derivative. But when you like a thing, you don't mind seeing more of them too much. There's soon to be 24 James Bond films don't you know.
Things I liked here was the sometimes lovely cinematography, amusing communication between the baddies and a general marked improvement on using modern technology in a movie.
