Dark Winter

.... Just not realised.

Firstly, I agree with other reviews it does drag and it is a little long. There were some great ideas and concepts set up early on that if realised would have been enough to keep you interested. But for whatever reason, they seemed to taper off one by one.

Although the acting from the leads isn't exactly oscar worthy - some of the support cast are more than fine. It would have been nice to spend more time with them.

If you've purchased this i can see why you might be miffed but for a free film on prime (how I watched it) it's definately not the worst I've seen. The twist ending is actually great and well done - it's just a shame you might not want to make it to that point.

This might be the worst movie I've ever seen. For starters, the actors were dreadful. I couldn't tell if they were professional actors or random friends/family of the production. As for the movie, it seemed like 70% of the movie was spent with characters slowly walking in the woods. The other 30% of the movie was in a cabin in the woods where nothing happens. I was bored to tears and only continued watching because a family member choose this for movie night.

I never write reviews so I do feel bad writing this. But I just wanted share my opinion in case anyone was conflicted on watching this or not.

Not the best few hours of my life but then again i've sat through a hell of a lot worse that seemed to cost a hell of a lot more. Interesting concepts are set up but for whatever reason aren't followed through.

A somewhat intriguing setup went nowhere. Slowly. Without an actor in the cast! Thankfully, there was little dialogue; what there was of it was delivered flatly. Lots of walking through woods in daylight. Then night fell, and there was more walking in the woods. The ending finally explained one aspect of the setup, but left most of it just hanging there like an overdue bill. I should have known when, early in the film, a radio host actually utters the admonition "Don't fear the reaper," and the soundtrack plays a tune that kinda sorta sounds like an inverted rendition of the intro to the famous tune that lacked any balls or cowbell. Turned out to be a fairly accurate summation of the film.
