A camping trip gone bad!

Rating: 4/10 (8 November 2001)

What happens when you send three student film makers into the woods to shoot a documentry about a witch? Well somehow they manage to get lost when the road can't be more than a mile away if that much. Perhaps, they should have taken some outdoor survival classes, because these clowns would probably get lost in someone's backyard. And guess what? We get to watch them complain, moan, and groan almost the entire movie and it is supposed to be scary. During all this they are been stalked by an unseen force or something, which is probably just someone camping who is sick of hearing them yell, scream, and cuss each other out. This force does scary things like shake the tent and make barely audible noises in the distance. It also makes arts and crafts and displays them...Oh how scary! Meanwhile, our "woodsman" keep walking around in circles like idiots instead of following the river which would have prevented them from going around in circles. This movie could have been really good. The beginning was alright where they interviewed those people and before they yelled at each other constantly, and the end was alright too. The middle, though, did not have enough in it. There should have been more hints at what might be out there. You don't have to show it so everyone knows what it is, but perhaps give peeks at something in the darkness. Hear noises that are a bit more distinct. This movie had potential, but wasted to much time showing the three argue.
