Meagan Navarro Bloody Disgusting 03/15/2021
1.5/5
If this were an adventure movie or Utah tourism marketing, The Canyonlands would have a solid foundation. As a horror movie, though, nothing works. Go to Full Review
Noel Murray Los Angeles Times 03/06/2021
But the most frustrating thing about this movie is that more than half of it takes place in the dark of night. Why call a motion picture "The Canyonlands," and then barely show them? Go to Full Review
Nathaniel Muir AIPT 03/29/2021
While the horror elements are too derivative, the setting is gorgeous. The empty space is capitalized on in a way not normally seen in the genre. Go to Full Review
Peter Gray This is Film 03/04/2021
A horror project that unfortunately can't quite decipher which identity it wants to adopt. Go to Full Review
Matt Donato What To Watch 03/01/2021
1.5/5
The Canyonlands is a slasher that attempts to remember Native American massacres at the bloodsoaked hands of white miners; it's just not a very effective one on the basest subgenre merits. Go to Full Review

1.5/4
Low-budget shocker leaves genre tropes behind for stupefying finale. Go to Full Review

See more 07/17/2022 I liked it as a B horror flick but tge one thing I can't get over is the fact that she has a satellite phone and when her first attempt to call help fails she says she can't call 911 because it would take hours. Why write the phone into the script in the first place See more 04/02/2021 WTF was that??? Total waste of time!!
