best movie i've ever seen.
Best movie ever!
It's hard to write about this film without sounding like you're picking on the filmmakers. Obviously they were working with a shoestring budget and non-professional crew/actors, and you have to admire the ambition and hard work necessary to undertake the often herculean task of finishing a feature film under those conditions. Even taking those limitations into consideration however, this isn't really much of a movie. The script is rather aimless and contains vast amounts of padding. It seems the filmmakers were more concerned with simply producing a movie than they were with telling any particular story. This is reflected in the technical craftsmanship of the film as well. Scene after scene rolls by without any hint of style or artistic conviction. It doesn't seem like a passion project, but rather a generic product designed to take advantage of the notoriously low standards of the direct-to-video horror niche. Watch something else.
Production quality aside, which was very basic but not awful, definitely not good, the story is very scattered and nonsensical. The first 45 minutes of the film are completely boring and appear to just be filler to make this a feature length film. Oddly, the film attempts to set up a mythology of the witch at the beginning but it quickly loses that thread and once something does actually happen, it is completely unrelated to the original premise. This is not the worst movie I've ever seen, not by far. But it is pointless and there is no reason to watch it. It isn't even bad enough to where you can watch it and make fun of it or enjoy the camp on an ironic level which would at least be entertaining. This film provides no entertainment value on any level. Do not waste your time.
Holy God, this is one terrible film. In all due respect to those of you who have written positive reviews, you're wrong. The pace is mind-bogglingly slow. The acting is abysmal. Normally in a low budget flick with bad acting, there is some eye candy on the screen, but the casting director clearly thought that bland-faced, flat-chested, and fat was the way to go with the lead. And those are the good points. Bad things happen in the woods. HINT: Stay out of the woods, dummy. But if your friends have disappeared, sometimes you have to go into the woods. And then come out unscathed. And back and forth and back and forth. I don't want to spoil the ending. I want to encourage you not to even start the film. But if you do make it to the end, you'll find yourself thinking "WTF have I done to myself? Why, Lord, why did you make me sit through an hour and 52 minutes of this horse crap?" And I'm being nice.
This is not a real movie, this is someone's idea of a joke. First of all the quality of the film must be someone's camcorder with the sound quality in accordance. There are no special effects unless you count Halloween Spider webbing and Fake Blood and even that has no relation to the scenes involved. The acting, (if you can call it that), is worse than a school play. There is not one good thing about this movie and believe me when I tell you I've even liked movies that received bad reviews.I watched this so called movie to the end and the more I watched the madder I got at the lying reviews of anyone who said anything positive about it.NOT WORTH EVEN A RENTAL!
