During a team-building retreat in the mountains a group of sales representatives are hunted down by crazed killers.
The film starts with three people running in the woods from an unseen attacker. One of them is caught and gutted and the rest of the film tells the events leading up to that point. It is soon revealed that the three victims were part of a group of weapons salesmen who were on their way to a team building retreat in the mountains of Hungary. The group is soon quietly stalked and violently picked off by a group of Russians who viewed revenge on their parent company for some misgivings long ago.
Severance is a film that sticks true to and for the most part follows the general formula for these types of films. The comedy element is that the group was supposed to be office mates on a team building exercise and as we all know, nothing builds teamwork like escaping crazed killers.
The group isn't 100% likeable, but you'll still feel bad for them as they are picked off. The comedy is in the fact that these people have no business being in those woods, but just like in reality, management makes stupid decisions and everyone else suffers for it. Albeit brutally, in this film.
Idk. I liked it.
Here's the trailer:
Out of Ten? 6.5
Violence? Yes
Explosions? 1
Nudity? Blink and you'll miss it.
