Something Walks in the Woods

I like the premise behind this film and the erieness that encompases it. It has a very raw vibe and so with that said you must prepare to spend a good deal of time waiting for things to happen. I enjoyed the fact that the opening took you right into things and we got a glimpse of "something walking in the woods". I secretly wanted to see more of it. I personally feel there are sections that linger a bit much, and some of the performances near the end fell just a tad flat, but that's just me. The camping scenes felt very real to me and when stuff started to unfold, I felt in the moment the most. All in all it was a fun watch with some very creepy and original moments!

The creepiness doesn't jump out, but slowly builds up to a satisfying ending in a well fleshed out folktale from the woods of North Carolina. Patient viewers will be rewarded, but it takes some time to get there. Don't expect many jump scares or gore. This isn't a slasher. The film is framed by realism, and even with it's paranormal plot, it remains realistic. This is low-budget, but it feels like a real documentary (we had to look up whether there was any truth to the lore). Overall great performance by writer/director/star Bill Howard. Given that it is a one-man show, he truly carries the film.

I'm still waiting...not really but I'll never get that time back. This was awful and I'm not that picky about my horror. I'm a big fan of found footage, this boring mess should have stayed lost.

I tend to believe so many movies have their rating pushed up by family, friends or their cousin who invested their life saving in dreck like this.

I was really hoping for some creepy supernatural scares but alas...I would recommend that no one anyone waste their time on this one...my three star rating was being extremely generous...it really, in my humble opinion, deserved far less.

Well back to searching for the next Good creepy horror.

Well, if you've seen it, congrats to you! You either enjoyed it or wondered who you need to talk to about getting that time back for watching it. I am on the fence, so I am not thrilled, but didn't hate it either. It won't watch it a second time, but I won't say I wasted my time because I found it interesting at first. My real gripe is that I was invested in the Figure in the beginning and it did delve further. I have another one at the end, but for the sake of spoiling it, I won't mention it. I'll say, there is some over-acting. The effects were meh, but get an A for effort.

Not much for substance and there are many better mockumentary films out there, but I have seen much much worse mockumentaries. 5/10 maybe C grade movie.

This FICTIONAL movie just goes to show that if you've got $50 spare bucks in your pocket, you too can make a lousy movie. Just label it as a "documentary", and you might even get it picked up by a streaming service. Seriously, it's an hour and twenty minutes of your life youll never get back. The script is nonexistent (It's essentially just a poorly made YouTube vlog.). The cinematography is rank amateur quality, with several long sequences filmed completely out of focus and/or grossly overexposed. But the show does have one redeeming quality; the CGI face in the flash during the end sequence is hilarious! It's at around 14:07 from the end of the movie (though it may take a few tries to get a still-frame of it, keep trying!).
