    Too many flashbacks

    Molly is a pretty, popular cheerleader with a quarterback boyfriend, a waterboy best friend, an annoying little sister. A postgame party ends with Molly in the lair of The Hangman, a legendary backwoods killer; how she got there is revealed through a series of flashbacks.

    Backwoods suffers from having too many flashbacks and too few likeable characters. In fact, The Hangman is the most likeable male in the whole cast. It's too bad, really, because the great creature design really deserved a better movie.
