GamerTab That was an excellent one.

Spoonatects Am i the only one who thinks........Average?

FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Derrick Gibbons An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

sooperklew This is the story of people who should have left well enough alone. They go to explore a powerful evil beyond human comprehension and it goes even worse than you might expect.A key part of the story is the mental state of all the characters. They are immediately being attacked not physically but in their minds. If you don't understand this most of the movie won't make any sense.This is truly frightening to me, its one thing to face danger when you are thinking clearly. But to face danger when you can barely think at all? That's terrible.This is a very very dark movie. If you are ever feeling down about life you can watch this and realize 'things could be worse!'. Or 'wow! i'm glad i'm not them!'. You can even think 'Haha! Those guys are screwed' and its OK, because its not real. They're not real people and nobody was harmed in the making of this movie. :)

Flora Simpson I was really looking forward to seeing this film as an avid horror film fan but I was extremely disappointed. It definitely isn't a horror film as there is no suspense build up or much of a story line at all. The whole movie was terrible and I don't know how some people have rated it so high unless they worked on the film! The ending was also awful with no real explanation of why any of if had happened. I wish that I hadn't bothered watching it. I didn't like any of the characters that much as you weren't given any background information on them and none of them had ant real personality to relate to they were all pretty boring. Definitely needed to explain the storyline better as it never actually said what was behind it all.

suite92 In 1940, the residents of Friar, New Hampshire walked up a mountain road. They were not seen again. The film starts with a recreation of part of the Army's subsequent investigation. In 2008, the coordinates of the trail head are declassified. A group bands together to investigate the incident.The group is well equipped. They bring a six wheeled vehicle of some sort, multiple cameras, a high-quality sextant, GPS, compasses, maps, tents, and all manner of other things.After the music and the noise starts, things start to go downhill. About the same time, the compasses start to wobble or spin. The GPS gives wildly variable and always false readings. The noise is intermittent and so loud that hands-over-the-ears is not enough to keep it from being debilitating. Their two-way radios become unreliable.After one of the men kills Erin over a hat, the sanity of the group just drops off a cliff. They cannot agree on a way back, since their travel notes are gibberish. They split into smaller groups. One character jumps to her death. One character implores a woman companion to kill him; she eventually snaps his neck after he tells her how to do it. A man kills himself after filming a good-bye. Early on, their is a scene about the dangers of nightshade. Later a character commits suicide using nightshade.Does anyone survive? Does anyone figure out the mystery that instigated the trek? Watch for the final seconds after the closing credits; a few images (supposedly) from the Army investigation are shown.------Scores------Cinematography: 5/10 Often OK, but has shaky cam now and then.Sound: 0/10 Huge dynamic range, which is quite irritating. Make that worse than irritating. To hear its meaningless conversations, one needs to turn the sound up. A lot. To avoid breaking the speakers, or getting a visit from the cops, one needs to turn the sound down, down, down. The sound alone renders this film a failure.Acting: 3/10 I liked Cassidy Freeman's (Smallville) performance fairly well. I cannot say the same for the rest of the cast. The +3 is for Ms Freeman alone.Screenplay: 0/10 Pointless. Was the original purpose of the expedition achieved? Not even remotely. Did the dead characters gain any enlightenment before death? No. The ending was just one more fall into insanity.

Tss5078 The only thing disturbing about this movie is that someone actually agreed to make it. I understand that it's an independent film, written, directed, and starring first timers, but anyone who read this script had to have known it just wouldn't work! Don't get me wrong, the story they had was extremely solid, and they could have taken it in a million different directions, any other direction than the one they took. The story starts 70 years ago, when an entire town randomly decides to follow a path into the woods and are never heard from again. The FBI investigated, covered up whatever they found, and kept the whole area off limits, until a random group of people decide to investigate for themselves and write a book about their experiences. First of all, this group of people have no connection to the town, people, or even each other, so why do this? Second, for 70 years the FBI has kept the area off limits to everyone, so what makes this group so special? These idiots march into the woods and the only thing they find is music playing, music that gets progressively louder until it drives them insane. The music is from the Wizard of Oz, but the producers were too cheap to buy the rights to the music from the Wizard of Oz, so it's very similar melodies with different words that nearly drove me to insanity. These idiots romp through the woods makes the Blair Witch Project look like an Oscar worthy film by comparison. It's a lot of talking, and crying, and yelling, that leads to an ending that is by far one of the dumbest things I have ever seen. The ending is the strangest part of all, in that it builds up and plays like it's some huge twist, which maybe it would have been had it made any sense at all. The acting was terrible, the direction was all over the place, and the film destroys the story worst than Paula Deen destroyed her career. This is one film you should absolutely avoid!
