Product Description Slasher horror down in the woods, as three couples try some magic mushrooms - then wish they hadn't. When five American students arrive in Ireland to go camping with their old college friend Jake (Jack Huston), they decide to try out the local magic mushrooms, apparently the best in the world. But after they start tripping, reality and imagination begin to blur, as Jake tells stories of mutilated bodies and unsolved murders. Soon, members of the group start to go missing, and panic sets in when they begin to think something, or someone, is stalking them. But is it all just a case of bad trip paranoia, or is there really a crazed madman in their neck of the woods? From Amazon.co.uk Heavily influenced by the influx of Japanese horror films over the past few years, Shrooms is a muddled, yet intriguing film, albeit one with an identity crisis. Is it a conventional horror, or is trying to do something a bit different? Inevitably, it’s a little bit of both. The basic concept could be the basis of any of the avalanche of horror films that have emerged in recent times: six American students in Ireland go hunting for some magic mushrooms. But what Shrooms does is try to distance itself from being a generic slasher movie, and instead attempts to inject some uncertainty. Yet when one of the party, after taking one of the ‘shrooms’ of the title, forsees trouble ahead, you can still pretty much see what’s around the corner. Shrooms does work hard, though, with an at-times unsettling visual style, and some well earned jumps punching it above many of its contemporaries. But it’s not without problems of its own, not least the fact that the longer the film goes on, the further it goes off the rails. But at least it had something to start with, and Shrooms does reward your time and money by the time the end credits roll. It’s far from the finest horror-thriller of recent times, but it’s got enough of an identity to hold its own. --Jon Foster
