Machtige bergen. Een boshutje. Een spiegelglad meer. Stille waters, diepe gronden. Eén jaar na hun huwelijk trekken Jules (Brittany Allen) en Jackie (Hannah Emily Anderson) ertussenuit om te vieren. Maar op deze idyllische, afgelegen plek komen ze plots oog in oog te staan met hun grootste vijanden: elkaar! Dat hun relatie het niet overleeft, lijkt wel zeker. Maar of zij het zelf overleven, is maar zeer de vraag… Want alleen is nooit alleen. (Source 1 Media)

A run-of-the-mill, not in any way notable game of a psychopathic cat and a surprised mouse in a forest
by a lake. And it’s also stupid – due to the improbable behavior of its characters and the work with
viewers, underestimating their intelligence. The entire audience in the packed screening room laughed at
some scenes that were supposed to be serious.

Two lesbians go to celebrate their one-year marriage anniversary at a cabin in the middle of nowhere, but one of them soon starts to have a serious breakdown, the sins of the past slowly come to light and the wife is now in danger of her life as her partner gets a psychotic break and goes over dead bodies. A fairly brisk survival thriller that, while not exactly groundbreaking, doesn't offend at all. I liked the music, the suspense works well at times, and the finale is pretty much fine, so a digestible affair. 60%

I didn't have high hopes for the Canadian film What Keeps You Alive, but it managed to impress me from the very beginning with its environment, which is beautiful and nice to look at. Into this environment enters the story of two characters, and there aren’t many more that are needed for the entire film, whose idyll turns into the worst moments of their lives. From a horror point of view, it's nice that the evil doesn't come from the outside.
