Disappointing and definetly overrated

Rating: 4/10 (21 October 2002)

I've finally watched TBWP after hearing so much about it and expecting a truly chilling, unconventional horror movie... And it was so disappointing! It's not scary, it's just annoying how all the main characters' cursing and crying and fighting don't even allow you to hear what's supposed to be so spooky out in the woods! I am a fan of horror movies where the "unseen" is the thing that scares you most, but in the BWP it's just boredom all the way through. And the plot is frankly stupid...Come on, they walk for 15 hours and get back to the same place? Just follow the river, for heaven's sake! I give this movie 4/10 only for the final scene in the house which was the best 10 minutes of the whole movie.
