A family trip through the New Zealand wilderness turns into a nightmare when they're suddenly confronted by a pair of drifters in this Sundance thriller starring Daniel Gillies (The Originals) and Miriama McDowell (Waru).
Winding down a desolate road through an endless valley, Alan and Jill stop their car to take their teenage boys on a hike through the New Zealand wilderness. As they rest for a picnic at a clearing overlooking the water, two ominous-looking drifters appear out of nowhere, silently surrounding the peaceful clan and radiating a threat of imminent danger. With a swift act of violence, these men take the family by force, a seemingly random decision that sets them all on a maddening collision course with the ghosts of their pasts—from which there is no escape.

Great performances and a tight grasp of tone make for a white-knuckle thriller about a family in peril, one in which the back roads of remote Aotearoa have never been as terrifying onscreen.

Slash Film
Slash Film"A genre exercise with some impressive bursts of filmmaking and performance that bode well for whatever Ashcroft does next."

RogerEbert.com"At a certain point, the built-up momentum declines at a steady rate, never entirely living up to that exhilarating, brutal first act."

Bloody Disgusting
Bloody Disgusting"The movie doesn’t break any new ground - and doesn’t really try to - but will grab hold of you in moments that range from tense and thrilling to downright shocking."
—
