There is a horror in Austria. But it is not a quality horror movie as Austrians try to convince the surrounding world. It is the horror of incredible stupidity and ineptitude of the lead characters that makes the movie practically unwatchable.Imagine all the bad clichés from the worst possible horror movies. Five teenagers versus one crazy lady, lady wins. The weakest character is equipped with gun but has zero skill or will to use it. Girlies running upstairs screaming. Absolutely random survivals. Super inept police. Zero logic everywhere. You know all these stupid things laughed in "Scream", except for nudity and fun.The plot is totally boring. No fun. No even slightest surprising moments. No gore to speak of. Pretty much just a waste of time.Three points for the nice surroundings of the lake. If you love the Austrian and German stories about nice people living in the mountains, you might enjoy it as this is slightly darker version of the same.

Five friends fresh from graduating high school all get a text message saying they will be dead in 3 days. One by one this starts coming true with Martin (Laurence Rupp) being abducted and drown in the local lake. Nina (Reiter) finds his body and she is taken next from her home by the killer. She almost has the same fate but is rescued at the last moment. After another of the group dies in a gory death which ends in decapitation, the police want to know if the three of them were ever involved in anything in the past. They obviously lie and realize they were. A boy died in an accident many years ago and the group feels it could be his mother attempting revenge. Part slasher film, part mystery, this Austrian film has a fair amount of gore and a creepy killer until the reveal at the end. Everything is handled well by Director Andreas Prochaska and there is some suspense as well, still, the movie lacks punch and nothing is very memorable when it is over. You could do a lot worse than this if you are looking for a newer slasher film to feast on, there's just nothing here that stands out.

The plot is really poor... A mixture of "I know what you did last summer", "blair witch project, and so on...You can't compare this movie to a Hollywood movie!But when you compare this movie with Austrian movies from the last 10 years, you will see, that Austrian movie makers try to reach an "international level". Special about this movie is the fact, that the spoken language is not "German German" but "austrian German". This may be a reason, that many Germans can't stand this movie.I like this movie, because it is the first step to a new age of Austrian movies.

I watched this movie, do you know what you did? ;o) Of course the summary line is also a link, that this movie is obviously linked to American teen horror movies of the recent past and tried to copy them as good as it could.So if you like this kind of movies, you might be more excited than I was. I mean I liked "I know what you did last summer", but it had also a lot to do with Jennifer Love Hewitt, Sarah Michelle Gellar and the others. They weren't excellent, but good enough. And although the actors hold their own here (for a horror movie that is), something is missing. It never really get's really scary, that might be it ... Not the worst movie ever then (not close to that), but still not something you have to watch (unless you're a fan, as I said earlier)
