Quicksand

No review content available.

I've seen quite a few Shudder-produced films and for the most part, without sugar coating it, they've been a load of old tripe. This one seemed like an interesting concept, if only to see how they could make quicksand seem like a credible and entertaining threat. As it transpires... they didn't. The plot surrounding the titular quicksand isn't anywhere near as thick as the mud the couple inevitably get stuck in (that's right, in a film called quicksand, it isn't even quicksand they get stuck in, but mud) with them on the verge of divorce. The pair go on a hiking trip, get robbed, bolt headfirst into a bog and get stuck. Well, the wife does and the husband has to dive in to save her when she goes under, something that doesn't happen again in the film, even when they pass out or panic, begging the question why it happened in the first place. The couple end up having deep and meaningful conversations while up to their neck in mud and corpses, in between fighting off threats like ants and snakes. It's the snake that creates the most bizarre moment of the picture though. Despite being petrified of them, AND it already biting her husband, the wife decides she needs the snakes body to escape. Now, in order to lure it closer to her... she throws various objects at it. Rather than flee in the opposite direction, as nearly all animals would do when a random flashlight smashes down just next to them, the snake takes it upon itself to find out who threw it and even has the wherewithal to sneak up on her when doing so. It was at this point I zoned out, and nothing I saw after it could convince me this film was worth watching. Another shudder 'classic'.

I had to stop watching this silly movie at the exact moment the main character hit the car jacker in the head with the piece of wood and fell to the ground. He yelled "Run"!, instead of keeping on hitting him in the head till he was dead..When I heard of the movie quicksand I said oh good. It should have a lot of action and suspense. Nope Not this movie. I found that a lot of the circumstances were very unrealistic for real life. The acting is somewhat forced. The other character actors are barely watchable. Except for 1 or 2 incidents in the movie that were fairly well acted but poor lighting.

A couple who are going to get divorce soon went for trekking in forest area... But unfortunately they fell down in quicksand and try to survive in it... They found another body in same hole and got rifle and bad as well... And at one stage snake bite them and they suffered more than before... Finally both are escaped from it and get together... Normal survival movie and there is no special in it... One time watchable movie... A couple who are going to get divorce soon went for trekking in forest area...
