Pretty Scary!!!

Rating: 8/10 (1 August 1999)

This movie took a while to really get going. I suppose it's understandable that a certain amount of background information is necessary to get rolling on a movie like this, but be forewarned: you might find the first hour or so a little boring! (I certainly did...) That said, overall it's a damn good movie. The suspense building up to the ending is nothing short of intense. You are witness to the deterioration of these film students lost in the woods as they get more and more desperate to find their way back to civilization and an unknown presence that appears to be hunting them. The background information on the movie is fairly compelling, I saw a special on the Sci-Fi channel after I watched the movie that made it more interesting. It is very hard not to ultimately get drawn into this movie after the boring sections. You will be very surprised at the ending. You will also not want to be in the woods at night for a long time. If you don't catch this one in the theater, it's a definite rental for sure!!
