No one deserves what happens to them in "Black Mountain Side," but as the deer-head deity would tell you, no one ever said it all had to make sense.

Rated: C+

Digital Journal

The key to making a relatively low-budget movie is an exceptional script and competent casting director. This picture benefits with a considerable measure of both.

Film School Rejects

A beautifully-shot, creepy love letter to John Carpenter's The Thing that finds its own identity amid the paranoia and bloodletting.

....the tone is inconsistent, the plot meandering, and the whole film is just way too long.

If you can stand the gore and not really ever see the evil entity, this movie, for me, nailed it…in addition, if you can stand not knowing if they ever get out safely, then you are in for a treat… excellent screenplay and good direction with a bunch of dudes who can act..well done, all the way around!

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

The movie has an ok premise, some used tropes and themes, but it is ok, too bad it just does not develop properly In short this is a good idea for a movie that was badly written and executed, leaving you with a feeling of "This was never completed" and like you wasted 2hrs of your time Now, from here on out spoilers The monster is laughable, reminded me of the deer head from "Evil dead"(The old movie, the 2nd one) It is left in the air if it is just in their mind or not, but there are things they could've expanded on that they just pull out of their nether and didn't really do anything with, half the people(Who seemingly weren't infected) die on the stupidest way There is seemingly 2 things, a virus and a monster, but as I said, they come out of the nether regions of the writers and never come to fruition Then comes the stupid end; there are good endings that leave you thinking they will ultimately die(The thing, The cabin in the woods, for example) and then there is this ending
