The movie wasn't as bad as expected,
good kills and scary,weird looking characters.
Most of the main characters overacted and made obvious dumb decisions just like in many other horror movies.
The movie had a scary atmosphere and had some humorous moments.
The ending was kind of a disappoinment because I expected something different.
All in all it has positive and negative aspects, I liked the creative, almost funny killing scenes but I didnt like the fact that I felt no sympathy or connection to the main characters at all.
If you expect a brilliant, creative horror movie with a great ending, it will disappoint you but it is worth watching.

INBRED is one in a sub-genre of recent British splatter movies that celebrate their low budgets by throwing copious comedy gore into the mix. These films are often poorly plotted and rather predictable, but get by with sheer gusto and often the presence of familiar faces in the cast. If you like this, then be sure to check out others like DOGHOUSE or THE COTTAGE.INBRED is a film that celebrates Yorkshire culture with a storyline that has unfortunately been done to death a million times (see WILDERNESS and the like). A group of problem students head into the Yorkshire Dales for a break and before long they run into suspicious locales modelled on the ones from An American Werewolf in London. Later the film turns into a gory action movie as members of the group struggle to escape from various inbred hillbillies. I hated some parts (the drawn-out arena deaths and the general crudity) but in other areas the suspense is well handled and the effects are good.This film's directed by gore king Alex Chandon, who brings little wit or insight to the production, but if you like gore then it's not so bad. Jo Hartley is best known for playing Shaun's mum in THIS IS ENGLAND and bags the main role of the social worker here. Some of the kids are way too annoying and hateful, but others like Nadine Mulkerrin's Sam are okay. There are cameos from BEFORE DAWN's Dominic Brunt, who seems to be something of a horror fan, and Thalidomide actor Mat Fraser.

This is the kind of film where the trailer doesn't really do it justice. To show the best of the film in the trailer would spoil the plot, so it seems to just set the mood instead.Encountering this film on the late night horror channel - which usually shows some pretty dismal stuff I wasn't expecting much but i got a surprise. Quite a few actually . . . The cast is great and in many ways the 'inbred' characters are as entertaining and, dare I say - endearing as the heroes and heroines. UK watchers will notice a few well known faces playing characters that are really outside their usual roles, which may make the film more entertaining to a British audience than an American one but I think the scenes of camp gore and torture would satisfy anybody who claims to be a horror fan.There are some great moments, some shocking moments and certainly some surprises. Don't expect a cerebral plot or an exercise in deep meaning, but do expect some great tributes to classic horror, some genuinely entertaining performances and a slick little production that proves just how good British film making can still be.

Four troubled teens and two caseworkers head to a remote area in the English countryside for a weekend of team building and scrap metal salvaging. An unfortunate incident with the locals leads to an accident, which leads to a misunderstanding, which leads to murder and worse.I love my inbred killer movies and I love my small town with a secret movies but I did not love Inbred. Nothing much happens until 40 minutes in and then the movie decides to be utterly bizarre for a while and give us a vaudeville performance with kills rather than going straight for the jugular. I couldn't help be reminded of the family show in House of 1000 Corpses and how that sequence dragged down the pacing just like the show here (although there's a very excellent bizarre kill in the first "act").We finally get through this part of the film and things move on quickly for a bit of survival horror with some decent gore and dark humor but by then it was a case of too little too late for me. I liked the main group of good guys and there was some effective gore but I spent too much time being bored and not enough being entertained.
