A group of five friends head into the countryside on a hike in memory of their friend Lucas who committed suicide.
It is particularly difficult for Eden who was involved with Lucas.
They learn that there have been a number of disappearances of people around the area.
As they set up camp, they are prey to Jack and Jill, the feral children of an asylum escapee, who attack and kill all whom they see as intruders on their territory.....
Well, it's the curse of the DVD cover looking really good in order to have lots of unknowing buyers thinking that this will be something else. You know the ones, they have blurb on the covers saying things like 'This is the best horror movie to have the title Jack and Jill', and 'A must see, it's a real film'.
And my gosh, is not another high concept horror film with a really bad out come. And this has two sequels. At least the person playing Jill didn't turn up for the sequels, as she probably found work in a bar or something (N disrespect to people who work in bars).
It starts off with a prologue featuring people screaming Jack!! Jill!! A lot. They get separated from some people for some reason, and then the film starts proper.
We get a bunch of unknowns going on a camping trip in honour of a deceased friend, and they have a little banter with one another. And it's terrible.
The majority of the film is the group of friends maundering about the quite nice scenery, but it has a whole 'woe is me' essence about the film. The group are terrible, the acting is below par, but it's what we expect from films that have a nice cover, only to be complete pants.
The titular duo pop up every now and again looking like extras from a Romero rip off, and when they meet the group, the group pretend to hold weapons to their chest, and spit out fake blood.
If you want a night where you pick a really bad film just to laugh at, this isn't for you. The film takes itself far too seriously, and it would have been a whole lot better if the titular pair has a few one liners when they show up, which is pretty rare.
It obviously has a marker, as it spawned two sequels, but for the life of me I don't know why.
It's boring, and really terrible.
