I added 1 star for the half-decent camerawork.... you're welcome.
The acting is ok-ish at best.
But my word, the pacing of this film.
I mean, If I fast forward in a film, it means something is wrong.
Now I don't mind a slow story, if it's actually developing into something.
This was nothing if not anti-climactic and utterly boring.
Some parts were just ridiculous.
Professional surfers/skaters who just managed to jump and clear relatively big gaps, suddenly panic and collectively jump off their boards when they encounter an unimpressive gash in the track?
And a rabies infection from a rat? Did he get super rabies? He become symptomatic within mere hours.
How did the guy get the candles where did he get the lighter or matches from?
And whilst we're at it.... where does this obviously malnourished underground dwelling hermit, living out in the middle of nowhere, get his superhuman strength from? Surely a couple of fit, sporty young people should be able to defeat this guy right?
And what about the crosses? Does he keep a ton of them lying around?... just incase a few delicious humans happen to pop around in his makeshift cathedral?
Personally my biggest grievance is the pseudo philosophical ramblings scattered throughout the film.
Lord have mercy.
The only redeeming quality of this film: a couple of nice shots.
What a wast of time.
