Severance 4K 2006

Another group looking for trouble heads to a luxury cottage in Hungary to boost team spirit. A fallen tree blocks the bus's path to relaxation and team training, and the driver, who speaks poor English, refuses to take a detour through the forest. As a result, our heroes set off on foot to their... happiness, where a maniac bored in the thicket of the forest will be waiting for them.
An excellent representative of the horror parody genre. I came across a comparison of The Cottage with this film on a website, so I watched it right away. The film turned out to be magnificent, and my hopes for British black humor were not disappointed. Here, the psychopathic killer's matches don't light at the crucial moment, and his foot keeps falling into some hole... and it's fun to watch the “victims.”

There's nothing to say about Tim McInnerny (Darling in The Black Viper) in the cast, he's a wonderful actor who makes you smile more than once. Danny Dyer (who was brilliant in The Kennel) shines in the role of a drug addict. “- Do you take anything seriously?” ‘- Ecstasy and weed.’ The rest of the cast, including Laura Harris (who also starred in The Faculty and the second season of 24), Andy Niman (Survival of the Fittest and the series Dead End) and others, are also all in their places.

The film is tense and bloody (without getting too carried away, no more than in a standard slasher movie), but you can't help smiling while watching it. Those who like things like Shaun of the Dead, which plays on slasher and horror genre clichés, plus references to other various films, and is spiced up with a dose of British black humor, should enjoy this film.
