This movie started off well with some great acting from all concerned; the bad guy was particularly vile and that boded well for a good bloodbath/massacre but it all went downhill rather quickly as nothing much except a bit of a drama out of a crisis unfolded with little to no real horror; more of a comedy with a bit of drama and a smidgin' of horror thrown in for good measure. Sylvester McCoy makes the film and I have always liked him; even as Doctor Who as he brings a lot more to the table than most actors these days but all of the actors were really spot on but they just had nothing to really work with scriptwise and I don't know about anyone else but I figured out what was possibly behind the safe from the beginning so the mystery was gone for me quite early on. Disappointed as it looked like this could be a rival to the USA Don't Breathe movie but it has absolutely nothing in common but it does get an average 5 hatchets out of 10 as it will fill an average Friday nights viewing.

I found it entertaining, predictable but still it kept me wanting to continue watching... I gave it five stars.. when I find a movie that can't keep my interest than I stop it! This definitely kept me entertained and that's what movies are supposed to do!

If you have lived to as old as i am, you will for sure remember the 1970's thames televisions short novel crime series ''tales of the unexpected'', and then you might think what an old sodder i am, but that series took the hold of many peole back then, and this maybe a newave or reviwal of the concept. on imdb its voted low, and i can understand that due to lack of slash and gory horror, and the pace aint high, but its extremely bizarre and twisted in its revenge and conclusions. its a story about 4 friends, one stupid ,one bossy , one psychopatic and a girl with some conscience planning to do a nick on a old mansion somewhers rural britain. but their scouting and surveillance efforts hasnt been good enough sdpoiling more than this would ruin the whole shabang, just say its nifty business the acting of the small cast and the choice of locations are brilliant, and the use of miss williams as the female part of the break in squad are just enriching the whole story.the screening format differs along the way, you wont notice so easily but on a small screen it will be visual. the filmography and soundwork, the score and set management do make this a gloryspot of british crime fun horror done the british way if you are on the pivotal point choosing between this and other british movies of today, this one os clever, there are no way of survival, and how its done is just immense. a recommend from the grumpy old man
