Dennis Harvey 48 Hills The Blair Witch variant in which a bunch of obnoxious influencers-podcasters-YouTubers etc. traipse into the woods and cannot die quickly enough to end viewers’ pain. Sep 20, 2023 Full Review Terry Sherwood Film Threat The Wendigo, with some chilling imagery, good use of video technology, and actors that make subtle commentary on social media that not many want to admit, makes for an experience of dread. Rated: 8/10 Sep 6, 2023 Full Review Abbie Bernstein Assignment X It is made with clear affection for the found-footage horror genre, with dialogue that is plausible for the circumstances, and mostly good acting. Rated: B- Aug 7, 2023 Full Review Paul Mount Starburst Robinson clearly has an eye for the conventions and peculiarities of social media and understands the tropes of the genre he’s working in; it’s just a shame that he couldn’t have crafted a slightly less cliched horror romp... Rated: 1/5 Jul 28, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

Bryan cheap special effects. Cheap all over. Boring. Easily killed monster by a tractor Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/11/24 Full Review Samuel S Well, dang. This movie starts out with great pacing and good acting. However, once the film begins to move into the third act, it becomes cheesy and loses a bit of the dread I was expecting based on the first half. Still, this is a pretty entertaining movie and worth a watch. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/05/23 Full Review Read all reviews
