Details

With their sights set on a £25,000 reward promoted by a local newspaper, American documentarians Georgia and Matt head to Exmoor in North Devon to film the fabled beast supposedly slinking through the remote terrain. Is the creature a leopard, a panther, a family pet crossbreed, an imaginary predator? Setting up a forest camp with an old acquaintance harbouring his own dark secrets, the trio fix 42 cameras to the trees and rocks, linked back to a computer nerve centre where nothing should go unnoticed as they take turns to night watch. But then they discover some putrefying body parts all neatly tied up… then some more. And before long they realise they are in the lair of a beast right enough, but certainly not one of the four-legged variety. For they have discovered a serial killer’s playground and are soon to become his most wanted prey.

Lucybespro It is a performances centric movie
TaryBiggBall It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.
InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Platypuschow Starring Nick "Agents Of Shield" Blood we have three people going into the woods to find evidence of a big cat roaming freely.Irish made and with a one million budget you'd think this would deliver but instead is an excessively dark poorly constructed embarrassment.The one thing I'll say for it is that it wasn't predictable, to such an extent in fact that it's not what it's advertised to be and the front cover is yet another lie.Utterley unlikeable I don't see where the budget went and can only assume they had great catering.The Good: UnpredictableThe Bad: Lifeless Things I Learnt From This Movie: 1/4 movie covers are lies these days
John Brennick (psiguy) First - and yes THIS IS A SPOILER - the film is a bait and switch. It's not about a killer panther, but a human killer. Thankfully they let you know within the first act, which means some viewers will make the wise choice to put something else on. It would suck if they paid for it and got swindled, but at least they could save themselves some time. I found it on Netflix and, unfortunately, decided to stick with it for the rest of the runtime. Basically the whole thing is annoying characters making infuriatingly stupid decisions over and over. And over. And the events of the last fifteen or so minutes feel like they were drawn out of a hat - just completely random stuff lacking any trace of forethought. So, don't waste your time.
chrismackey1972 I'm not sure why this doesn't have a higher rating on IMDb. I just saw this, and it was fun. It had a natural flow, and I liked the main character a lot. There was a twist at the end that was very unexpected. However, what happens to the bad guy was kinda silly, but it didn't negate the rest of the movie.Melia Kreiling was very believable, and she seemed believable scared throughout her time in the forest. I think we'll see more films with her in the future.I recommend this film. It's a solid, original thriller, and I'll watch it again. I gave this a 7-star rating.
kosmasp But not really something that is phenomenal. Horror movies live and die with their characters (most times literally than metaphorically) and in this case, the characters are mostly nicely drawn. You might even care for them (or at least some of them) not to die. Unfortunately a few things come in the way (and I'm not talking about Death/Killer situations alone).The things that might annoy you, are the decisions made. Bad decisions as they mostly only happen in horror movies, to move on and make the movie "interesting" or let things happen that could be easily avoided. Having said that though, I have seen far worse, so if you don't hang up too much on those things and don't mind the slow pace in the beginning, there is a couple of things to enjoy here
