Tara Brady Irish Times 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 Jun 14, 2017 Full Review Phil Hoad Guardian Makes up for its occasional heavy tread with outstanding photography. Rated: 3/5 Feb 16, 2017 Full Review Anton Bitel 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. Oct 8, 2016 Full Review C.H. Newell 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. Rated: 4.5/5 May 6, 2019 Full Review Amie Simon Three Imaginary Girls I'm still not entirely sure what happened, but I know I liked it. Mar 2, 2019 Full Review Richard Drumm Film Ireland Magazine 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.

g j Very much worth the patience required to let simmer up until its harrowingly confronting conclusion. Deeply unsettling and strangely profound. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/10/24 Full Review Diana S Pretty trippy last act, but overall a bit of a snoozefest. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 07/15/24 Full Review Andy F 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 08/22/23 Full Review Audience Member 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. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member 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. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 04/08/25 Full Review Audience Member Good low-key ramp up to creepiness. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews
