The Wendigo

It really wasn't much. It was cheesy, hilarious and definitely not horror. The editing was over the top and makes the movie look cheap. It's an okay "mockumentary"/found footage movie. But its nothing ground breaking. It reminded me of VHS if you ever seen that. I wouldn't say it's bad by any means, but it's also not that good either. It's somewhere in the middle. Giving it a 5 would be too generous though.

If you are expecting a movie with character backgrounds, lots of suspense and good effects, this probably isn't the movie for you. But if you are looking for a quick movie to watch just for fun and entertainment, then I would say go for it.

I implore you and all in your trade who think they are multi faceted, to please pick a profession and stick with it.

Please listen to me and all the other poor souls who have to sit through and watch the results of such multi roles in a film. Its sad.

Writers should write.

Actors should act.

Directors should direct.

PERIOD.

When you try, and I wish I could bold the word try, to do all three or even two of those roles, the end result is a sad display of ego on film.

The product suffers, your viewers suffer and the craft suffers.

Do one thing and do it well, and when you try to do all three, the outcome is a reassurance of why one should only attempt one of those roles.

I'm the biggest Wendigo Enthusiast out there, and all I wanted was for Wendi to be on screen doing fun things. What we got was a rough intro with very unlikable characters, and it felt like it didn't really pick up until 40 minutes in. The story doesn't really have any depth and the dialogue is nonsense and hard to hear at times.

The Wendigo outfit was awesome though, and some fun moments and its short length keep this from being truly bad. Still waiting for that truly great Wendigo film. Maybe one day with a big enough budget and slightly more effective looks and tricks that can scare the audience.

Where to start...I waited forever for this found footage wendigo film only to be so disappointed with the outcome. It was only a little over an hour and I almost couldn't make it to the end. This is NOT horror and is definitely NOT a creature feature. It's just bad acting, bad effects, and an even worse story line. The main subject, Logan, is absolutely terrible. I couldn't root more for his demise. If you're looking for a strong found footage horror film and a good wendigo storyline this is NOT the found footage film for you. I usually don't expect much from FF movies but this was a let down.

It started out ok and could have be decent and built the characters up a little, but needed more back stories. Once in the woods it could have been good, but then they just do anything to make it mysterious and confussing and plot changes. Characters change during the plot for no reason and the plot and story just do not make sense. They seem to take ideas from Blair Witch and many other found footage films. Along with a evil dead plot ideas, but not in a good way. In the end the movies is not really about the Wendigo. Could have used a stronger and solid story/writing before going to the shooting stages.
