Peter (Jim Caviezel) and Carla (Claudia Karvan), a couple whose marriage is faltering, decide to go on a camping weekend. When they become lost, the pair sets up camp on a remote beach that doesn't seem to be on any map. At first the trip is the romantic getaway they imagined -- then slowly things begin to go wrong. After Peter disrespects the unspoiled habitat, it seems as if the surroundings are wreaking revenge on the couple, as insects, animals, and then nature itself become the enemy.

1/5
Not only is it badly made, Long Weekend is utterly pointless. Go to Full Review Kevin Carr 7M Pictures 03/02/2011

I had no sympathy for the charcters. They are, at their core, wretched people who deserve to have their relationship fall apart. Go to Full Review Steve Dread Central 08/31/2009

Nature's Grave isn't worth wasting words on. It's Grand Theft Cinema: a pointless, artless clone that serves no purpose. Go to Full Review John J. Puccio Movie Metropolis 08/02/2009

...the perfect remedy for one of those bright, cheerful days when all you want to do is sulk and skulk. Go to Full Review Bill Gibron PopMatters 08/01/2009
1.5/5
Nature's Grave violates one of the first rules of remakes - if you're not going to be as good, or try to improve on, what came before, you really shouldn't bother. Go to Full Review Brian Orndorf DVDTalk.com 07/07/2009

There should be a law that forces potential renters of Grave to be sent Long Weekend instead...once you've watched the original slow-burn its way into a frenzy, the misguided remake from Blanks just looks all the more insipid. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

thiago s @Thiagostone Nov 11 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more Bret P @RT38967355 11/26/2024 An underrated movie. The performances are well done. Pretty good indie remake. See more Ronald H @RT44372985 10/23/2023 Possibly the most pointless film I've ever seen. The bickering husband and wife are unbearable from the very start, but we at least hope for some kind of reconciliation after all the horror they go through. It doesn't happen. The only comfort for me was the assurance that America can't take all of the blame for making inept, grade F movies. The Aussies make rotten ones, too. See more Tiago S @RT73331184 07/01/2022 Ideia que poderia dar certo, mas no final virou um terror fraco e sem substância. See more 04/04/2022 The one star is for the beautiful cinematography of Wilson's promontory. The film itself is the worst I've ever seen. See more andrea c @Charst 04/30/2021 Semplicemente terribile in ogni suo aspetto. Una coppia di personaggi che si impara ad odiare fin da subito e con cui si deve convivere per tutto il film. Un habitat totalmente senza senso, con animali che vanno dai serpenti, alle aquile ai dugonghi (follia). Scene ancora più senza senso; basti pensare alla tappa al bar, o al dugongo morto che si muove. Ci si deve impegnare per fare una sceneggiatura così no sense. See more Read all reviews
