The 87 mile long Kennet and Avon has had 150 people go missing over a 10 year period, more than 1 per month. Mark (Mark McKirdy ) decides this would be a great place for him , his girlfriend (Kate Davies-Speak clearly the final girl ) and another couple to enjoy the outdoors on a rented barge. We also discover that the water has Cyanobacteria in it. Eventually they run into the deformed cannibalistic locals.
Another average knock off film. None of the characters were likeable.
Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.

The Canals have eyes
Not good.
I wish this was a better movie. I was hoping it would be a nice UK horror along the lines of The Canal. But not so. Characters are one-dimensional and the little bit of story is lost in long dark stretched-out stab-fests. Its a shame something like this gets funded when it isn't much better than a student film. Really not worth the time. The "Killer!' 10 star review is bought and paid, for (their only review on IMDB)
Cannibalistic mutants with rubber masks bleed water n not blood? Beware! the film contains offscreen kills as the effects r shoddy.
This film is directed by the same fella who gave us the TCM rip off Escape from Cannibal Farm. The director is obsessed with red color n too much screaming n unnecessary badly shot carnage. The only thing good is the director's obsession with the settings of that of a country side.
Coming back to this film, it is a time waster as it is a cheesy copy of Hills have Eyes n Wrong Turn. It has cheesy n cliche dialogues - "no one escapes" "nothing personal" "my family has been feeding on the flesh for years" "u r not the first and u must certainly wont be the last". The over usage of red color n the constant flickering lights r annoying. The facial rubber masks r a big lol. It has offscreen kills as the effects r very shoddy. In fact the mutants from the low budget The Pack is more terrifying than these ones. Very generous with a 4 for the director's effort.
One reviewer has given this film 10/10. Clearly shows that he is associated with this film. Never mind, it's not a crime or sin to do that.
