Recommended: Eden Lake (2008)


This British hoodlum horror flick about a young couple's getaway to a serene-yet-eery locale and subsequent encounter with some very realistically portrayed chavs will have you cringing numerous times and yelling out at the screen as if the characters could hear your criticisms and warnings (which isn't a bad thing).

Just like it did to its protagonists, Eden Lake will break you down and leave you low come the credits. If you don't mind having a wet(bloody?) towel thrown on your mood, give this dark, brutal film a watch. Highly recommended.
