OK.....so im going to start out by saying i love scary movies(have watched the old 'the thing' about a hundred times).....can even somewhat enjoy some of the hand-held cam versions. i was really looking forward to seeing this sorry excuse for a movie/docu. watched his dad on unsolved mysteries many moons ago and have even looked up info on the area as well. and granted, didn't get a boatload of high reviews, but thought maybe it was just the people who put their noses up to anything paranormal. that was NOT the case. started out fairly interesting, even suckered my old man into stretching out and watching it w/me. needless to say, he is NOT pleased w/me right now and im even less pleased. it is supposed to do w/an actual journey the son took to spread his dads ashes and friends helping to give moral support and document it. yet, for whatever reason, the part that is supposed to be the journey, is reenacted w/occasional snippets w/the guy and his sisters(actually the son and daughters). why? doesn't make sense? you are absolutely correct.....doesn't make sense. it took a serious nose dive about 15-20 minutes in and continued to get worse from there. so,so bad. there went 127 minutes of my life i will NEVER get back. and i usually don't leave movie reviews....feel its more a thing of personal tastes and whatnot.......do NOT watch this......terrible terrible severely disappointing and terrible!!!! did i mention,terrible?
