Borderland (2007)
Borderland
3 out of 5 Stars
've been slowly working my way through 2007's collection of 'After Dark Horror Films' (I missed the screenings last year). Though this film (which is apparently 'based on true incidents') is a tale we have seen done before in several other horror films, Borderland did not disappoint. It was what 'Turistas' could have been, and probably should have been. I give director Zev Berman credit for creating at least two very well shot, original scenes (at the carnival and the hotel chase scene). His characters are stereotypical but the actors he used pull off some quite strong performances (particularly Sean Astin and Jake Muxworthy).
