derek h This Indie Film is a great revisit to an incident involving a family in rural Texas in the sixties in which they encounter a Sasquatch...if you've ever seen The Legend of Boggy Creek, you'll love this film...it just kinda grips you and by the end, I really enjoyed it...definitely must see Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/17/24 Full Review Cindi M For a low budget film, this was pretty good. I watched the entire thing. The only reason I was interested was because it was set in the sixties, and it was Texas, which is where I grew up. The monster costume was clearly a costume, but it was pretty danged well put together, and can I just say the child actors were very believable... actually, all the acting was pretty on par. They did a really good job setting the scene as far as the time period except for one minor detail, the pickup truck was not a 66 or earlier model and it had an April 2012 inspection/registration sticker on the windshield, which I think they could have tried to cover up. Apparently somebody drives that truck every day :) however, having said all that, I really enjoyed it. I recommend it. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/11/24 Full Review Audience Member I really enjoyed this movie. Good casting and the story line keeps moving. Awesome. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/07/24 Full Review heath h I was okay with the overall reenactment feel of the movie, but I was irritated that quite a few obvious items should have been edited out to at least try to make it feel and look authentic. The story is set in the 60's, but John Hartman must be a time traveler from the look of his truck's registration sticker and in other scenes you can clearly see modern vehicles in the background as well as places they shouldn't be. At least some of the actors tried their best to make it believable. One thing I'm pretty certain of is that one day this movie will become a cult classic. Just give it some time. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 12/14/22 Full Review Audience Member I loved this movie. I was on a low-budget big foot kick and came across and watched Something in the Woods. Yeah it's low budget, but I like that. It's authentic and it has refreshingly normal characters. It's not slick or polished; there isn't a lot of gun-play; there's no sex and no foul language. There is a functional family; a dramatization of a real case; believable characters played by pretty good actors (some better than others); and behavior that is worth emulating. I like that it is not Hollywood and that I don't recognize the actors from ten other films. I guess I've watched it six times - it's a film I can go to now and then when I don't feel like searching for something new. Good flick to watch with kids - a little suspenseful and the behavior of the characters is real. Lot's of opportunities to say what would you do in that situation? Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member To be fair, I had to stop this about 20 minutes in. The acting and dialogue made everything feel bad, and not the kind of bad I usually like to watch. This felt Riff Traxx bad, where the movies are almost universally worse without some snarky commentary in the background. STILL, I didn't get very far into it, so maybe it got better? I'll never know... Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Read all reviews
