| Summary |
A pair of polite, bland-ish German teenagers approach a woman, her husband and son at their lakeside summer cottage. It soon becomes apparent that the young men have no intention of leaving. When the husband tries to throw them out, physical violence erupts, and the family is held captive. What ensues is a series of disturbing and sadistic 'games' initiated by the sociopathic pair, with Georg, Anna and Georgie the unwilling participants. |
