This is a run of the mill type of home invasion type thriller. It isn't bad, just same ol stuff. The one thing that really caught my attention with this film was the lead actress. I'm not sure of her name but I know that she was in "The Woman." I thought that she did a fantastic job in that film. I'm not sure of which film came first but I like that she was able to show a great deal of versatility between these two roles.

This is your standard, move to new location, terror starts horror movie. It's really very predictable and at times very stupid (what the characters do), but I guess it all helps keeping the tension high. And in that it succeeds. The movie looks and sounds the part, even if there are bigger plot holes than it should be allowed to have.

The performances are OK, considering what sort of movie we have here. Although I reckon some might have issues seeing the main actress in a "weak" role like that, especially after having seen "The Woman". It's not that she is not able to carry that role, it's just that the role itself is weak. Script-wise that is. Whatever the case, this is bog standard fare, you might even like it

WHITE SETTLERS is a low grade British horror flick in the same vein as something like THEM (aka ILS) or THE STRANGERS. The plot sees genre regular Pollyanna McIntosh and her husband relocating to Scotland, where they soon run afoul of some pig mask wearing locals who want them gone. The first half of the film is all atmosphere and set-up, which isn't too shabby, while the second half turns into your usual low budget single extended set-piece action-dominated scenario with the main characters attempting to escape from the odds stacked agianst them. I've liked McIntosh in both HAPP & LEONARD and THE WALKING DEAD and she impresses here too, even though the film is pretty predictable and unremarkable in equal measure.
