Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Two campers Sharon and Teddy are terrorized in the spooky dark woods of the California wilderness by a cannibalistic knife-wielding madman. Teddy is killed but Sharon manages to escape. Their boyfriends, Steve and Charlie, take refuge in an old cave to protect themselves from the storm. There they meet the killer, an old man wearing a beat up old baseball cap named John. He tells them the story of how he killed his unfaithful wife and her lover. He then gathered his two children and ran off into the forest. Unfortunately, his kids got sick and they commited suicide. Since then, he has developed a taste for human flesh and will kill anybody who trespasses on his territory. Sharon teames up with the ghosts of his two dead children who came back to help stop dear old dads' bad eating habits. Can Sharon save her boyfriend in time and stop the canablism?

3.0 out of 5 stars another slasher , May 19, 2008
Two couples are planning camping trips, the wives planning one together, and the husbands one together. (Odd marriages, I see.) Earlier, we see another couple on a hike, and after the husband is killed, the wife is chased around for a bit and killed off as well. (Evidently, someone's out there, killing--as if we didn't figure that out already). Anyhow, the couples plan to meet up that night after the hike starts. But, as figured, someone is out there. Sharon and Teddie, the wives, are plagued by specters of some sort, until Teddie is killed, and Sharon is sent running. Then the husbands (whose names I forgot) meet up with someone in a cave, hoping to escape the rain, and they are offered some meat cooking over the fire. (Take a wild guess at what--or rather, who--it is) The man tells them a story about himself and his wife, and their children (which pretty much explains the ghosts) and soon the men are plagued by terror. Things go on as expected from there, as Sharon fights to survive in the woods, and the evil surviving man searches for her and Teddie, until the it's-been-done-before climax.

Not a terrible movie. The music is absolutely awful, and the acting is nothing to rave about, but it's still an okay film. A couple of good chase scenes, but the first one of the evil surviving man going after Sharon after he kills Teddie was just too dark. I couldn't see a thing. Now, maybe it was my TV but I don't know, it was still pretty dark. I preferred the day scenes. There were a couple of mild scares, but in the end, this is just another dull slasher with a few new twists. But, if you find it anywhere, check it out. It's barely entertaining, at best.

1.0 out of 5 stars A boring slasher, stay out of the Forest!, August 31, 2008
By Brbeats "brbeats" (MO United States) - See all my reviews
Just another boring slasher film about a crazy man who looks eerily like George Lucas stalking people in a Cali forest. Music is beyond bad and the script paired with the acting is just awful, boring and been done better in countless other films. Veer away unless you are a VERY hard core slasher junkie.
