Severance

Rating: 5/10

I won these tickets on www.cinemaclock.com...and had no idea what this film was about.

The tag line said: "Another bloody office outing."

I assumed that since it was an English film, "bloody" meant stupid, not as in blood from a wound.

The movie was messed up. Basically it was a bunch of coworkers who were on this retreat...but were abandoned by the bus driver who refused to go past a certain point on the route. They found an old, abandoned house and were stalked by army-type soldiers and killed off one by one. It wasn't until maybe 75% through the movie that the campiness surfaced. Up until that point it was just bad. Once the campiness started, I laughed my head off. I just don't understand why it took that long to come out.....usually it's pretty immediate. I didn't know what to make of the movie until that point.

Thank goodness it was free. I had popcorn and a cherry slushy so it wasn't a total waste.
