Halverson known for direct to video film called RED Clover, Sava everyone knows him from three seasons of Chucky. Famiglietti known for Terminator 3. The story is about a former cancer patient barely made it and thrown her medical bracelet in the fire because it what we remember by. The creature is intense and dripping nose goop. The Performances are actually not bad Halverson, Famiglietti and Sava does a fantastic job with Resulting with a positive role balances. 20% of this film had lack of smoke-cloud effect and the story does not have enough power to contribute its energy enough. Unexpected surprised creature feature that I'd never heard off, love my lowest expectations indie production films and small cast works for that nature forest woods atmosphere.

A couple goes on a camping trip somewhere in the woods.

For the first half hour or so they just do that.

Walking around and talking about some boring stuff.

Sometimes the woman has some visions of herself lying on a stretcher.

What??? Why???

Well at least the nature photography is quite nice.

Then they put up their tent, talk a lot of lengthy nonsense around the campfire and go to sleep when the woman has more of these stupid and boring "visions"

Then some foggy wood-creature-thingy hunts them through the woods.

Why??? What???

It could have just surprised them while they were sleeping in their tent - but who knows - perhaps the creature-thingy is also into wandering through the woods?

It is day all of a sudden, the couple is wandering through the woods again, with the creature-thingy never catching up to them, the woman has more and more of these boring visions, and so on.

Then they meet some crazy hunter guy, take shelter in his cave and now sit down there in that cave, talking nonsense for a long time while the woman has more visions.

Sounds all veeeery boring and veeery stupid?

Yes, it is.

I'll spare you the even more boring and stupid details of how it all ends but anyway most of it consists of more and more of these visions the woman has.

And they get longer and longer and longer and even more nonsensical.

And that is basically the whole boring and stupid movie.

At no point whatsoever does it get even mildly interesting, let alone suspenseful, thrilling or entertaining.

If you don't know how to tell a good story, just show some nice nature pictures and a woman with some stupid visions in the woods.

Ohhhhh....facepalm!

In the vast landscape of B-horror movies, films often struggle to balance the scale of innovation and the familiar tropes that fans adore. This latest entry into the genre showcases some notable positives while leaving much to be desired in its execution.

The film is the story of a couple who embark on an adventure in the heart of nature to relive their best memories, but their journey soon turns into a nightmare. So far the movie starts out very similar to 'Backcountry' and honestly by the end there are many similarities between the two. Except here there is a third character, and a creature, whereas in Backcountry the monster was a big predatory bear.

One of the standout features of this horror film is undoubtedly the beast itself. Although at first this creature is nothing more than a black smoke similar to the one in the 'Lost' series, but finally when it really appears it is both imaginative and terrifying.

The cinematography of the movie is good and the sound effects are excellent. Perhaps the most refreshing aspect is the surprising in the storyline. While the film does not offer a traditional twist, it manages to add layers to the narrative and makes it interesting. This creative decision stands out amidst a sea of predictable plots, ultimately providing a well-received moment of shock.

However, despite these strengths, the film falters severely in its storyline. The plot, while offering some interesting moments, often feels disjointed and underdeveloped. Audiences may find themselves confused or, worse, disinterested in the motivations behind the characters' actions, which are often riddled with clichés. Unfortunately, the actors can't help the movie's characters to get out of the stereotypes, and except for the actor who plays the role of the hunter Quin, who has a better performance, the other two actors remain on the same level.

In the end, this horror film showcases a striking beast, effective atmospheric elements, impressive sound design, and a narrative surprise that stands out. However, it stumbles with a lackluster storyline, clichés that plague the characters, and performances that fail to resonate. For fans of the genre, it offers a few captivating scares, but it ultimately falls short of being a standout in an already crowded field.

Sometimes you need to Watch a Movie (like: 'Battlefield Earth' 'Blair Witch 2' -or- 'The New Exorcist' ) to fully appreciate just how Truly BAD it is. And despite the abysmal reviews on both sides of the aisle (which may seem hyperbolic to some): I can state with absolute certainty that this Movie is in fact BAD.

The Script, Sound, Editing, Acting & Creature Effects were all acutely terrible. The only saving grace was some of the Photography & Production Value (i.e. The Shot-framing, Establishing Shots -&- Color-grading etc.)

Everything else was done haphazardly & felt just wrong. If this was the filmmakers first journey into the art of celluloid then I could perhaps understand, but that still doesn't change the fact that this film was abominable in it's attempt to entertain, captivate & thrill it's paying audience. (** 2 Stars out of 10)

So i read his super comment and i knew it was a gonna be trash. But he wrote his comment so hilarious that i literally had to watch this movie no matter how bad it is. The marketing team of this movie - if there is such thing - should hire him as a reverse psychology expert. Thank you TopReviewer, because of you i was ready to watch

yet i was not ready by the terrible acting of the Dudette. And making an extremely close shot make her look like a fish, didnt they teach in the art schools that do not reach the person with the camera but zoom it otherwise lenses will show the person like a handicapped. Now the acting and directing was horrible, but i kind of liked the idea of the story but only very bad executed. The limited budget didnt show us wendigo a lot but still makes no sense when that thing in some scenes can travel almost in a speed of light but somehow a woman that carries a crippled husband is not catchable.

Well i watched the movie as fun, not for having fun to watching the movie but to have fun of the movie and it worked up to some level. Thx TopReviewer.
