Twisty-turny supernatural horror keeps you guessing
PutneyTrope29 March 2022
I enjoyed it! The story jerks you about in a manner that reminded me of Brain Dead (1990). Just when you think you know what's happening...you don't.

The locations are primarily outdoors and in tents with a few other (fairly interesting) ones thrown in. The cinematography, direction, and acting were all great. Didn't feel particularly padded, and what padding there is doesn't distract from the overall story.

The story is not concrete. If you require things to be clear and well-defined in your films, you may be left slightly disappointed (particularly in the ending). The film winds up using something which has become a common trope. I suspect the filmmakers for a certain 2016 Sarah Hyland horror film may also have seen this movie.

Not perfect by any means. It was interesting, picturesque, and professional, and completely held my attention for the entire run time.
