Jason Adams My New Plaid Pants You guys have no idea how excited I was to see a chupacabra movie, and all they gave me was one of the mole-men from The Descent with an extra long tongue. What a rip-off. Jul 6, 2021 Full Review Amanda Waltz The Film Stage [A] wholly unpleasant, ungratifying experience. Rated: D Feb 20, 2016 Full Review Read all reviews

jeff l I've seen this formula over and over. This movie adds nothing new. If you're a hard core fan of people running around, getting killed one at a time, then you'll like it. I thought it was just a rehash of the same old stalker kills victims story. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member DNF - go watch The Descent instead. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member By far the worst horror I've seen in years,if you value your sanity don't watch this crap,I couldn't finish it gave up 15 min towards the end!!! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member Enjoyable, but not memorable, Indigenous is a film that already has the elements that any other Found-Footage style film, you already know what will happen. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Ramon V The plot holes and the bizarrely rushed ending it was a total waste of time. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 10/09/19 Full Review Audience Member While the first half of this film is a poorly constructed, painfully boring muddled mess consisting primarily of incoherent, lazy partying scenes, and marred by moments of atrociously written dialogue, the real success of this film lies in its second half. After slogging through the worn out and completely generic first act, the audience is finally given what the movie promised; a fairly intriguing and moderately suspenseful creature horror that disappointingly wastes a lot of its potential. There were several scenes with noticeably respectable camera work and some moments that did have me in the edge of my seat. Yet we as an audience are bereft of any reason to care about the flat and completely unempathetic characters that can come off as more annoying than relatable. The creature itself is smaller but completely identical to the creature design of the Wedigo from the successful PlayStation game "Until Dawn". That creature is scary, yes, but the complete theft of the design of another film's monster was a disappointing reveal. The shaky camera work during the climactic scenes was highly distracting and the creature just popped up out of nowhere in several cheap jump scares that took me right out of the moment; most notably during a scene involving a news helicopter at the end. Sadly this film missed out on its overall potential that shown through at some points, but was inevitably smothered by poor writing and horrible editing that cripples this film from the start.
