Ben Sachs Chicago Reader Neither fish nor fowl, this moody Italian feature (2013) recasts a familiar horror-movie narrative in the languorous, poetic manner of the so-called "slow cinema" that's pervaded the international festival circuit. Jun 5, 2014 Full Review Read all reviews

kate t Not worth your time. You keep hope something is going to happen and nothing ever does... well a few things happen but you never understand what they are. A tiny bit of suspense. I never could understand why the search party never called out into to the woods to see if the missing could hear them. Union pay rules? Even upon coming to the abandoned village where there were obvious signs he had been there; and entering the buildings, they never called out for him. Makes no sense as did most of it. Where did his camper go, too? Camper heaven? Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Slow, psychological scare. Some elements left to be desired, but it's immersive. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member effective slow burn chiller. 7/10 Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Not perfect...like every single supernatural horror movie ever, the scares tend to diminish in effectiveness as the film reaches its conclusion. But the fact that said finale still manages to be as shocking/creepy/gory/violent/unsettling as it is is just a testament to the fact that this is, no contest, one of the scariest films I've ever seen.
