Audience Member A bit messy and bit smoothy motion pic for a horror movie... Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Rubbish reviews but it really wasn't that bad. Low budget British movie with a reasonably good horror in the woods story Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member After watching this movie for 1.5 hrs, I have no idea what it's about! It does not explain anything, why the killings, what so scary about this forest and the mysterious woman! In fact it was so boring that it wasn't even scary and all you care about is when are they all going to die so I can turn it off! Don't waste your time on this one! Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member This slow-moving British "nature's revenge" horror flick is aptly named, considering the unimaginative story and poor quality acting. Four twenty-somethings head into the woods for a weekend camping trip and soon find themselves lost. A mysterious (well, not so mysterious, really) woman shows up, claiming that her boyfriend has vanished. Before long, a couple of the friends have also disappeared. One never comes up from a dive in a lake. Another gets incorporated into a tree. It takes so long for anything to happen, and everything that happens is predictable. Events are telegraphed early on, and the climax of the film relies upon the heroine making a very unlikely choice in her actions that will undoubtedly solicit a groan from any viewer whose IQ is larger than his shoe size. The special effects look rather cheezy, especially when low-budget animatronics are used. The CG isn't much better, though. "The Long Weekend" meets "The Evil Dead" with a bit of "Little Shop of Horrors," or maybe "Swamp Thing," thrown into the mix. There appears to be a ham-handed message about environmentalism early on, but even that gets muddled into oblivion by the end. Lots of good things can be made of wood. This flick is not one of them. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Think even 1 star is being generous. No Good acting (terrible in fact), no plot, no scares, no decent camera work.........nothing. Have no idea what the point of this film was, but it wasn't remotely scary. Was it trying to be another Blair Witch??? This is an example of how one can be tricked into buying a cheap film, based upon watching what seemed a decent trailer. People just kept disappearing without any hint of what happened to them. There was a vague attempt at an explanation at the end of the film, but quite frankly it was a plot that a couple of 10 year olds could have put together (probably being harsh on the 10 year olds here). I'd certainly recommend this if you wanted to send people to sleep, other than that, avoid at all costs. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member Ok not a good one so don't watch. The acting is not good and the whole story line is awful. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews
