(HORROR) Uninhabited - 2010 ***





I'm giving this 3 stars for the beginning. It started off so well, except for the by now goddam awful 'based on actual events' sign that we see at the start of all these types of films. Based on what event exactly? A couple going on holiday? Someone going fishing? Not much to go on really. Anyway! The island itself is stupendously beautiful, with such clear, blue water that you can see all the creatures below. Filming this must have been a joy.
A couple decide to go to an uninhabited island off the Great Barrier Reef for 10 days for a change of scene and to see how they cope alone with nature's basics. Things start off well, but sooner or later things take a turn for the worse and it's all utterly ridiculous. Things start happening that make no sense whatsoever added to which the female lead becomes excruciatingly irritating. I don't understand what on earth happened at the end and to be honest, the DVD cover is rather misleading.
