    Like Texas Chain Saw Massacre? Not.

    The Texas Chain Saw Massacre was not about torture, but an unusually deranged family who were violent in some original and creative ways inspired by Wisconsin serial killer Ed Gein. The film is an incomparable and timeless cinematic masterpiece which culminates in a terrifyingly bizarre dinner party.

    This film conversely, is the typical overdone torture porn movie - the only similarity being the kids encounter rednecks in the country - with that empty don't-need-a-reason attitude. A perfect demonstration of how torture flicks don't belong in the horror genre due to their general omission of anything scary or creative - only unimaginative meaningless torture.

    I couldn't finish watching Resurrection County. Mainly because it was disturbing in a most unoriginal way. And also because the script and interaction between characters was shallow and unbelievable. And it was just too boring.

    Surprised

    So I was in the mood to watch a stereotypical bad horror movie and I settled on this due to decent reviews. I was very surprised mostly by how realistic the villains were in this one. They are more like people that we have met or even know rather than your run-of-the-mill typical inbred stupid rednecks you tend to see in these movies. This movie sets up the norm and then has an early (edge of your seat disturbing) scene in the first quarter and then kind of dies out a bit before gearing back up again. I was surprised at the character left standing but I saw the ending coming a mile away. Maybe I've just seen too many of these movies.

    The acting and effects are believable. The story is pretty realistic (most of the time.) I was going to give 6 stars but I gave it 7 because it was on my mind for a couple days after watching it. I personally enjoyed this movie.

    Boring, predictable, weak

    This movie is another redneck torture porn crap. It is boring, predictable and you can see the ending from miles away. There are no surprises there.

    The only surprise for was based on fact the movie was described to me in the shop as a "gothic horror story" similar to the Children of Corn. Boy, these people have been so wrong!

    Seriously I have no idea who could watch these redneck slashers on purpose. Are these movie designed so folks from American cities do not try to wander in the woods? Is this really supposed to be some religious replacement of hardcore porn sold as a story? Seriously, the only such movie which was fun was the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre and maybe The Southern Comfort. All other movies are so derivative and unoriginal. I would never watch another one unless being tricked to buy it by accident as it happened in this case. I have so wasted the money on this one :-(

    Better than Most

    As a fan of Redneck Torture Porn, I became aware a long time ago of the narrow range within which the plot lines of nearly all movies of this type fall. A group of good looking young people venture into the backwoods, typically in the South, looking for adventure -- in this case, ATV riding. They stop for gas, a couple of them mumble some insulting remarks that are picked up on by the locals and then drive off to find a detour where there is never, ever cell phone coverage. "Resurrection County" is no different in many ways. But in others, it is quite watchable. The actors who play the locals are quit believable and a event relatively early in the story was so unexpected that it took my breath away. That scene in itself is worth the price of a Redbox rental. Critics who complain that there isn't a lot new here need to get a life. What did you expect?... for a pretty city girl to go off and marry an in-bred townie? Give this one a chance.

    Probably one of the more realistic films of its type, but realistic isn't necessarily entertaining

    The first thing I noticed about the film was its promo image. It's effective: it's both brutal and spooky. Turns out is not an image from the film. The film's two female stars are a long-haired brunette and a short-haired redhead (the latter seems to be channeling Susan Ruttan for some bizarre reason... maybe someone was a huge fan of LA Law?). There are scenes that are highly similar to the image, though.

    The major premise of this movie is that the main characters go off to the woods to ride their ATVs. They are going mudding, basically. It's a movie about rural people who happen to have some disposable income versus rural folks who are dirt poor and insanely violent from extreme politics. They are the type of bad guy that actually exists in this world, unlike ghosts and werewolves and genius serial killers and so forth. Normal rural people are also included in this movie, most dramatically in a law enforcement officer who demonstrates professionalism and tolerance. There are also some morally ambiguous characters to varying degrees. But the people who are villains are hardcore evil. For example, there are at least three attempted victims of nonconsensual sexual activity. But the filmmakers avoid showing anything except the violence,

    The biggest problem with the film is that there's something off about the pacing. Most films have something to hook you and then a lead up to a flurry of activity. This one has big things happen, a conspicuously long gap in the middle where they added characters and nothing is really happening, and finally things happening again.

    In all, it was maybe a slightly above average film, but it has nothing that's a must-see.
