Things like drinking games and "RiffTrax" were invented for movies like "In the Forest," which are very bad but need a little participatory help to become so-bad-they're-good.

A flawed but fun and engaging little flick that is worth watching once.

Rated: 7/10

Another independent film which (1) has no-name, untrained actors; (2) so-so dialog; (3) low production values; (4) basic cinematography; (5) cheap budget. I am so tired of the onslaught of these films being dumped onto streaming services. Most of the free films on both YouTube and Amazon are of this caliber. Junk, junk, and more junk in a ceaseless, streaming series of junk films. If it's made after 2016, 90% of the time, it's going to be this type of poorly crafted film. Even those with actors who were once reputable, are poorly directed, filmed, and produced.

Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars

How the hell did this movie get 84% ? I watched it because I saw that but this was the dumbest movie ever. Pretty bad acting and writing and nothing was ever explained, not during the movie nor at the end. We are left with all these questions. Like what was up with the toenail painting, seemingly just randomly thrown in? How did the kids get like this, what was wrong with them? Horrible. Would NOT recommend.

So unbelievably bad. Works better as a parody. But even then. Wow. Worst acting I have ever seen. Maybe worst everything.

Majority of reviews are negative but I didn't think the film was that bad. The acting, by and large, wasn't too bad. The plot was pretty good. The ending was puzzling, as I couldn't figure out what happened to Andrew and Natalie. All in all, 3 stars from me.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars
