Muck (2015)

The movie begins and we are thrown right into the middle of a story already in progress.  A group of friends are stumbling through a field. Something big has already happened because one guy is seriously injured and a dazed woman is in her underwear.   Where have they been? Who did this? Who are these people? Why are they in town since they don’t live here? Who attacked them? What happened?  I hope those questions aren’t important to you because they’re not going to tell us.

The group stumbles across someone’s home and breaks in. While there’s some panic over the injury and the traumatized girl, there’s no real sense of urgency. One girl is fixated on taking a shower.  Noah decide to get help since there is no phone. The injured guy says don’t ask the local Sheriff for help, but call someone for a ride.  Why don’t they want the Sheriff to help? Did the local police attack our group? No idea.

Noah runs till he finds a bar. Does he ask for a phone or for help? No, he quietly walks up to the bar, then heads into the bathroom to wash his face. When he comes back, a woman hits on him, he orders drinks and then asks to use her phone.  He calls his cousin Troit and asks for a ride for five people. Then he runs back to the house to make sure his girlfriend is okay. But on the way back, he runs by a house and sees a girl inside in underwear so he stops to peep through the windows. What the hell, movie.

Troit gets in his car with the two women he’s drinking with and drives to the town of Wescraven, yeah I know.  And that’s when the albinos show up. The rest of the movie is the few people left alive trying to survive the multiple albino attacks.  And it ends as it starts - with no resolution and seemingly in the middle of the story.

They just took the middle of a movie, no beginning or end, and no plot.  Noah never tells Troit where he is, other than the name of the town, yet Troit finds him.  The bartender warns Troit not to go to that town, but there’s no info as to why or what the bartender knows.  The women with Troit are overly concerned with their clothing.  When the first one thinks they’ve going home together, she goes into the bathroom and tries on multiple sets of matching underwear. Who brings that many changes of clothing to a bar?  After their car tips over, the other woman says she needs a change of clothing. Why? Her clothing isn’t  even dirty.
