Wasn't bad, just over-hyped **spoilers**

Rating: Null/10 (21 August 2004)

Well after reading some of the comments I had to add my own.
I didn't really think it was all that bad, but I think if this film had not been hyped up so much the ending would not have felt so... empty. I think this is where it went wrong. Although the final twist was really good you were just expecting something more shocking.
I thought the acting was brilliant and the setting wonderful, I would not have expected what was to come. However, it was a massive disappointment when the twist did come. The monsters not being real for one (although in the voice over the elder said he'd read of 'stories' that they might actually be real leading you to think otherwise) and when Ivy finally made it out of the forest gathered more than a few gasps out of the audience.
A good film though, but you cant help but expect something bigger.
