Couple on weekend snow camping trip gets stranded in the woods after a snowmobile crash. Boyfriend was somewhat unprepared but that was probably due more to the fact he had a surprise in the works and his mind was more focused on that than properly planning for a few days in the wilderness. A strange man appears amongst the trees and things go awry after that.It's a shame Seth David Mitchell didn't have more screen time - he's adorable. I wish Sedona James' character would have been more likable but I attribute the bitchiness to early pregnancy. That bitchiness also saw her through in a situation that might have left a sweet girl in the tent hyperventilating and curled in a fetal position.Nice twist at the end that had me rewinding to verify. Worth a look!
Kind of a strange movie. You think its going one way but its really going in another. I'm not sure what I think of it. It was frustrating to watch people fumble around in nature. It's actually not the easiest thing in the world to start a camp fire yet the two main characters were able to do that easily time and time again yet they weren't capable of doing easier stuff like driving a snow mobile in an area where there were no obstacles. Thats what I mean by I don't know what to think about this movie. Maybe I am being too picky. It really isn't easy to get a campfire going in winter...I find many horror films these days are achingly derivative of other previous horror films so much so I can almost count off the other films the producer has seen and incorporated into his personal cinematographic monologue. So many horror films these days fall into the category of see it if you are stuck for something to do rather than go and see it because its a good film. Its not a total yawn but its close.
Things were going okay until the first line of dialogue was spoken. It's all downhill from there. The acting is sub-par, with the male lead far worse than the female. Both characters are unlikable and don't have any redeeming qualities that would make you root for them. There's obviously some sort of rift between the two, as they seem to have quite the disdain for each other, this especially shows from the woman.They go into the snow packed wilderness horribly unprepared. After a snow mobile accident, they begin to see strange silent figures in the woods. The boyfriend investigates one night and disappears. The next hour is filled with a mentally draining bore of sequence after sequence of the woman brooding about, which always ends up with her back at the damn tent. This repeats itself a good dozen times it feels...before it all unravels into weird scenes from some campy slasher flick. Then it turns out she's been dead the whole time or something... my brain was fried at this point and I wasn't paying much attention.I truly thank Netflix for adding this to their selection, and I only blame myself, and my two other family members that agreed upon this turd of a movie.
With a score of 3.8 I expected distinctly average. Im pleased to say the score does not reflect the movie. Acting was good, and it kept my attention throughout. Some criticise the storyline but it had me guessing until quite near the end, and just how many story lines are there? I think they have all been done so you cant knock a film for treading a beaten path. That's all I have to say but to fill the ten lines I will add that perhaps the wolves thing could have been added, although I suspect the idea was not to have too many survival clichés which is fair enough. This is more a 6 out of 10. I give it 10 for average bumping purposes.
