When genre fans say "beware the 15A horror film", they're not talking about the scare quotient, but they could be talking about this film.

Rated: 2/5

Makes up for its occasional heavy tread with outstanding photography.

Sight & Sound

Through disorienting pull focuses & the hallucinatory play of light & shadow on tree trunks, Finnegan conjures the suggestion of a pagan presence in this eerily numinous maze of branches, & lets the viewer, along with Eric, become lost in the woods.

Father Son Holy Gore

Finnegan draws out the horror of the natural world, taking us into one man's deep madness as he grapples with how he treats both Mother Nature and women alike.

I'm still not entirely sure what happened, but I know I liked it.

A valiant attempt at putting atmosphere ahead of cheap scares that could have benefited from more fully-realising its concepts but which remains an engaging watch all the same.

Very much worth the patience required to let simmer up until its harrowingly confronting conclusion. Deeply unsettling and strangely profound.

Pretty trippy last act, but overall a bit of a snoozefest.

A classy quiet horror film. Very much in the vogue of other recent Irish horror films but that's no bad thing. Quiet, unsettling horror is by far the most disturbing and this ticks those boxes. The only really poor moment is the flashing light section!

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

A slow paced, slow building visual and psychological horror that will keep you guessing up until the end when that relieved, excited "Ohhhhh! I get it!" leaves your mouth. Very fun lore and a very interesting unique story. Very well done!

A hallucinatory forest experience catapulted on film. Excellent cinematography and a powerfully atmospheric sound track. Probably not most folks cup of tea though, maybe the more widely travelled (in a psychic sense) will appreciate it more.

Forewarned I'm not the hugest fan of slow burns unless they can really get you intrigued, and this a very slow burn that had trouble doing so. Its a eco-horror of man vs nature, and nature wins as usual. Its quite slow without much of a pay off. Everything is laid out plainly for you to see. Nature in this case has now taken down 2/2 men that tried to assess/understand it. I just wish there was more to it, other than just 2-3 creepy shots of the woods. I would only recommend this to lovers of slow burns as well as eco-horrors.
