Reviews
“A Lonely Place to Die remains a thoroughly gripping, expertly crafted and visually sumptuous mix of white-knuckle tension and adrenaline-pumping action. Easily the best thriller of the year” Dread Central
“An effective thriller that's canny enough to avoid genre cliches and boasts a gut-punch worth of edgy menace.” Empire
“In a word, Julian Gilbey’s A LONELY PLACE TO DIE is intense. Incredibly, exhaustingly intense!…what Gilbey puts his actors through is truly remarkable. The smart ways the dangerous environment is used—boulders, trees and steep hills posing as much of a threat as the trigger-happy men pursuing the characters—is truly staggering. The gorgeous George shines throughout, giving her all in an extremely physical (and undeniably attractive) performance…A LONELY PLACE TO DIE is one of the most effective and intense films I have seen in a while and an immediate survivalist cinema highlight. Highly recommended!” Fangoria
