Quick review

The good
The emergence of newcomer Belle – a dark-haired Elisha “24” Cuthbert lookalike. Nice. A fast-paced, twisting narrative, the impressively designed hill top setting
The bad
The stick-thin plot, yet another cack-handed killer who couldn’t hit a barn door from five feet away, A lack of blood may alienate hardcore horror fans
Verdict
Unsurprisingly, this makes for a fairly anorexic plot but director Simon West builds the tension impressively until the shocking final twist
