Oh my god, the script is unbelievably terrible. First off, the plot. I couldn't believe how this was produced, or who would think of sinking money into this moronic, flimsy film. In no way was this film suspenseful and halfway through the film I wanted the main characters to die. Anyone making the film could have added a little bit of humour, but instead tried to develop the characters of the couple, which was executed poorly. The acting was dismal, if anyone thought of hiring any four of the cast just watch this film and reassess your foggy decision.
What made me laugh more than anything was the stranger. He just shows up and can barely speak English. The viewer doesn't have any idea why he's there or stalking the couple... he just shows up out of the blue and starts saying "take a sit" "chop chop". I thought to myself, did Tommy have anything to do with this movie? Is this film a way to launder money?
Regardless, I feel slightly dumber for watching this. I think eating a pile of lead chips would have been a better choice.

You are about to go on a wild ride.
A ride consisting of some of the most wooden acting you will ever witness.
A ride that will reveal one of the worst directors of all time.
A ride with a script so bad, it had to be written spontaneously by a monkey with a typewriter.
This movie is about nothing. It's yet another vapid blended couple in a cabin who do what people in a cabin do. They drink. They smoke weed (although the woman has no clue how to toke) they discus the number of eggs to cook. And they do it for an hour and 18 minutes.
There are also ancillary characters who have nothing to do with forwarding the plot.
And then there's the protagonist. The movie's almost done by the time he's inttroduced.

The actors are so bad in this movie that they can't even convincingly act everyday activities such as cooking or brushing their teeth. It's like they don't really want to be in the film. It's embarrassing.
It's really utterly pointless and awkward to watch. There's no story, no emotional engagement and no point at all to any of it.
There is a baddie that is presented towards the end of the film, and introduces some more pointless activities which does give our actors an opportunity to demonstrate they acting range.
I can't quite understand how such a movie would ever get made, perhaps as an example to be used in movie school on how not to act, write and direct.

This script is so bad I just wonder how anyone put 1 dollar behind it. I mean, the dialogue is literally like watching 2 boring people hang out for an hour. Just literally doing nothing. The guest characters literally bring zero value. The actors had no chance.
If I'm a young actor I would have passed on this. Scripts that all take place between 2 people are hard enough, but when the dialogue is about making drinks, how many eggs do you want, I'm going to make some pasta, let's watch a movie, when are we getting married......
That's literally the entire first hour of the movie. Why? Why does this movie exist? It won't make any money and if it did you've scammed someone. Can't believe I sat though it. Unreal. I gave it 2 stars because the female actor is hot. That's the only thing good about this "movie".

I know there's an attempt for a story here but I can't find it.
A couple's on vacay and basically nothing really happens throughout the movie, except for the last few minutes of the flick. They brush their teeth, take showers, go hiking... you get the gist. Unless you are living it, then maybe its interesting but watching it, it's rather like watching paint dry.
There's supposed to be some kind of tension where there seems like a guy is lurking outside and we see it from the creeper's perspective. Then he goes inside the house and moves things around- the toothbrush, a ring- you get the gist.
When there are moments that you think something might happen, it doesn't. This movie might cause sleepiness. Be forewarned...
