Warning: Spoilers
A potential title with a potential story that loses potential!??!

The movie is confusing but not really when it all comes down to this.

Stacy Keach is a teacher and he has taken his students on a big field trip.A teenage girl who is bothered by memories and seeing strange things like human like beings in animal type coats is being treated by a shrink to see if this is her imagination or if its something else.Her and her friends are terrorized by the beings on this field trip.So is it true that her thoughts are real or is this just a bunch made up stuff by her?

Is this beast-man is Bigfoot?A werewolf,a mutant bear,perhaps a wild cave man or Neanderthal man? Could it be a new breed of human?Could it be the imagination man or could it be a old guy who thinks he is the last of the great vikings.Could it be a cat-man?Maybe it could possibly be the legendary ghost of the forest that harms any who comes.With all of these great possibilities it could be any one!

So you know things happened in this film but did it really?Well yes and no.Everything you saw didn't happen but when the movie is over then it will! You see,she was psychic and nobody knew it,not even her. I hope when you see it you'll understand it because it is a good film.

Stacy Keach and Billy Dee Williams are good in this film but their parts could have been larger.

By the way,Keep your eye on the beast at all times,when it runs and hope the camera follows it and the beast constantly growls and makes noises and shows its teeth.I was laughing the whole time. Its just funny.Rent this and see for yourself.Its a fair movie its just that it takes a lot of patience to get use to this type of film,thats all.

I rented Fear Runs Silent and gave the film another chance. The results was that I was confused even more this time.I had no problem with the cast at all as they gave all their effort for what they were given. The scene with the couple in car that was having problems in the snow had big time potential. The movie would have been a great one if it was just about the field trip and the happenings there instead of the confusing subplot with the girl's bad memories or nightmares.
