a small community of young adult ( . and a mute kid with roller skate ) whose leader be a professor ( robert carradine ) and live within the confines of a massive hospital in a major city after civilization have fall apart due to the total absence of gas fuel and fall prey to an ominous group of barbaric cannibal who collect a victim a night for their feast and lead by the sound of a horn . this all start when three from the group find a fallen young woman and neon ( rachel miner and of the previous year 8 film to die for feature and penny dreadful ) who claim that the cannibal be call rover and slaughter her whole family . soon and the group fall one by one to these madman and a their leader be the first to die and leave them to fend for themselves with little hope of survival . through this horrifying ordeal and one must strengthen the others a a leader or else they all perish . actually and for a good portion of the film and it quite intense and suspenseful because there seem like such little hope for these kid and without a head once he remove ( . the kind of leader who be quite smart with goal of start over and competent in his ability and whose weakness be trust which leave him vulnerable ) against such amoral brute with a nasty visage and even nasty weaponry . they resemble extra from the second mad max film and the road warrior . vinnie jones be a memorable heavy and with his evil smile and bulge eye and whistle scythe a he spin it around ready for blood shed . michael madsen and who at first appear to be the leader of this group and have a minor role a the cannibal jackal who whistle towards his quarry before use a two side ax to do his damage . rider strong ( . who also appear in 2007 8 film to die for entry borderland ) have a strong role a the aggressive ford and the kind of character who think mostly of save his own skin . he voice his opinion loudly often antagonize instead of help to solve their terrible situation . michael kelly ( . a viper and who leave the group and tire of be boss around by carradine professor . and be an awfully good shot with a crossbow ) and who many might know from the dawn of the dead remake a the irritate mall security guard whose attitude towards the survivor be quite unkind and have a heroic role towards the end a the kind of tough character who everyone else quietly respect and despite his rather negative reaction to what the community be try to accomplish . i be not sure why carradine ( . who most identify from revenge of the nerd ) isn not use in horror more . i think he a welcome presence and and i sure hat see him exit this so early . the one thing this film direly need be an adult presence . the film have some ferocious attack on the kid and which be slickly handle use the darkness of night ( . and a camera which move the right way to avoid see the initial stab into flesh ) and to avoid real graphic display of carnage . i think the best thing go for the film be the cold and dank darkness of the hospital setting and even creepy at night . the post apocalyptic premise be touch on here and there ( . mostly through dialogue ) but the overall theme come straight from hill have eye . but and i find the whole wolf in sheep clothing twist absolutely ridiculous and and once we find out who be guide this cannibal group and i couldn not take the film seriously anymore . and and nicole duport character dakota and a soft spoken and rather weak member of the group who be sleep with the professor and put her complete faith and life in his future plan and metamorphose into a bloodthirsty savage with warrior paint and nearly have me laugh my as off . and and to be honest and this whole method of execute the victim one at a time and use this specific time at night to hunt and have my eye roll . if you want to eat people and just fn do it .
