Quick Answer

What is Barricade about?

Barricade is a 2007 German horror-thriller directed by Timo Rose about three friends who, while camping in the Black Forest, are attacked by a family of deformed, cannibalistic mountain people.

Programmer's Pick

Redneck horror goes Teutonic in Barricade, where the Black Forest is less fairy tale, more cannibal nightmare. If you think rural Germany is all cuckoo clocks and cake, this murderous clan will set you straight—one limb at a time.

Overview

Barricade drops a trio of friends—Nina, Michael, and David—into the heart of Germany's Black Forest for what should be a peaceful camping getaway. Their vacation quickly devolves into terror as they cross paths with a secluded, inbred family of mountain dwellers who have a penchant for murder and cannibalism. The film leans hard into its horror and thriller roots, with the group fighting desperately to escape the gruesome fate that awaits all who trespass in this isolated territory. Viewers should expect a relentless barrage of gore, suspense, and backwoods brutality, all set against the ominous backdrop of the German wilderness.
