If you didn't like it, you didn't understand the ending

Rating: 10/10 (2 August 1999)

I have read the numerous reviews about the film. Let me preface this by saying I loved this movie. Very few films disturb me to the point where five days after viewing the movie I am still sleeping with the lights on. I think that the negative reviews of this film may have missed the point. One reviewer said the logic was flawed, that the campers should have just followed the stream to civilization. The point was the campers couldn't leave the woods no matter what they tried. They were directed by forces beyond their control. Unfortunately the ending was cryptic and therefore I feel a lot of the audience did not understand what they saw. If you listened carefully to the commentary of the people in the town, the ending was truly the best part of the film and what made me go to Walmart for a night light.
