A not so bad sort of indie thriller where everything is average, though original with good acting, flow, pace and atmosphere. Of course, the logic is not there, the budget arguably tight and the lead actress and the "villains" doing more than decent jobs. It was satisfying and bright with that 1h22m runtime accounting its pace and vibe. Just would have been better if the dog didn't "magically" disappear and acted like a nice protective dog. Screenplay/storyline/plots: 3.5 Production value/impact: 4 Development: 6.5 Realism: 4 Entertainment: 6 Acting: 6 Filming/photography/cinematography: 6.5 VFX: 7.5 Music/score/sound: 5.5 Depth: 3.5 Logic: 1.5 Flow: 5.5 Thriller: 4 Ending: 3.5.

The ending is the worst ending of a movie I've seen in a really long time! Here is right before the ending: She has a gun, sees the one trying to kill her is still alive, puts gun down to ring the police on a landline that probably isn't even working and then runs upstairs to get away from him leaving the gun behind! Enough said? Terrible movie. I wasted 82 minutes of my life to watch this! It's terrible avoid avoid avoid! I also had to write this and I never write reviews just so people know how terrible this movie was! Urgh!!!! Avoid it at all costs! Or watch it for a laugh! You might enjoy it!

Somewhere in this, could, be a nifty little thriller however with poor direction and tedious acting it becomes a bore. Firstly the characters are all stereotypical of the kind that go into the woods in the first place- they tire of the city,their successful,one is going through some mental health issues, being away gives them reason to paaarty etc. They don't develop or act in any interesting way, they're all from the same stock characters that populate all these types of movies. The 'boyfriend' overacts so horribly at the end he makes Jack Nicholson in The Shining seem like a kitten. Laughably bad! And his brother is so overdrawn as a reclusive backwater hunter , he'll make the characters in Deliverance appear like page Boys. The direction is poor with an over abundance of slow mo shots of running, a protracted ending and sloppy ending. The wet music adds nothing. The only person who comes out of this routine horror is the lovely dog!

After narrowly surviving a suicide attempt in her bath, Olivia, her friends and beloved dog head for a much needed break at a cabin in the woods, the tranquility is short lived, as a killer is keen to take the party down, one by one. A rating of 3.6.....really, compared to some of the dross I've endured recently, this is much, much better, clearly made on a shoestring, but for me it held up pretty well. It didn't try to be super clever, or go for two much, simple and straightforward, and that was the charm, very easy viewing, and at just over eighty minutes long, it didn't lull, pacing was actually pretty decent. It was never going to hit the mainstream, but if you're a horror fan, and keen on the low budget horror flicks, I can definitely recommend it. I thought writer Holly Kenney wrote quite an interesting story here, and I couldn't fault her acting performance either, good job all round. 6/10.

This movie is a low budget indie and I think it exceeded my expectations. Acting was decent, the cast was diverse. Olivia's friends take her for a weekend getaway to the woods after she supposedly attempted suicide. Her friend/crush Sam's brother Clayton owns the cabin they rent and he lives in the adjacent one. Clayton is seemingly the "odd brother" in a Survival off the grid way. Olivia's dog disappears and she soon suspects Clayton. The others try to let Olivia know she's being paranoid and kind of "crazy", especially after her suicide attempt. But Olivia insists she never tried to end her life and someone tried to murder her. I'm not going to give away spoilers even if I think many fans of this genre could figure things out. My only real gripe is yet again in a horror/thriller, police are called yet never arrive. It's obvious at least an hour passes. But this isn't a problem unique to this film. At an hour and 20 minutes I think this is an easy watch and it's actually quite on topic with a situation many women experience. Decent indie, many females will relate.

Low budget attempt at a horror/ slasher drama. Firstly, I am not going too hard on a movie that clearly has a small budget and made independently. That being said, this is poor by any standard. The direction, the editing, the sound design, the acting, the script, the plot and cinematography is all poor. I can only imagine what someone like Sam Raimi would have done with something like this. This is Holly Kenney's first stab at doing a screenplay and it shows. It doesn't help that she has decided to play the lead character herself. There are strange scenes all over the place. The dog, who is the best actor in the film, disappears and reappears for little or no reason.

What did I just suffer for 82 flipping minutes, bad dialogue, dry character development, worst performance by actors. I did not enjoyed this film not one bit because it's very dry, cinematography was lackluster, script was poop and very stupid, jack off to screen monitors is actually hilarious. None of the actors did not have the best dialogue and they did not tried hard enough. Here's why? 1. Character name Olivia was such a bad character growth depth, her husband Cole was upset because Olivia said no and Cole killed himself, that was actually hilarious and ridiculous that I was laughing my butt for this type of film. Olivia lost her dog in the next day and it's a montage of looking for a dog which is actually stupid instead they found a dead fox in a bear trap which that sounds accurate but at least one of the characters ½ brother is a good amish looking person which he is the funniest part of the film which I do appreciated the enjoyment of a 2 out of 10 instead of like uggghhhh best horror film of this year. Let me explain you something there, OUT of DARKNESS is the best film of this year so far 10/10 and no one tops the hat off to you, Double Blind is a 9/10 this was a excellent movie 10% of it was nit picky, Lovely, Dark and Deep is a 6/10 because it looks like a perfect example of Yellowstone National Park as an Horror Film. This film called Stranger In the Woods is a stupid movie name, with a mediocre storyline and a very poor script as well as production value. Next time be more scarier like Sister Death or When Evil Lurks those 2 rocks!! In conclusion very stupid and pretty bad acting and screenplay all around. The storyline made little sense (if the cops were called twice why did it take them so long to show up?) and the writing was bland, boring, and lacking. Overall not worth your time, hard to call this a thriller. This maybe the funniest film of 2024 and.

I hate thriller and horror movies but this was so good. The plot twist at the end through us all off guard. Spellbinding from start to finish, this horror gem delivers spine-tingling suspense and chilling thrills. With masterful storytelling and hair-raising scares, it keeps you on the edge of your seat, craving more. A must-watch for horror aficionados, it's a hauntingly satisfying cinematic experience! The atmospheric cinematography and eerie soundtrack create an immersive world of dread, while the talented cast delivers captivating performances that draw you deeper into the nightmare. Clever twists and unexpected turns keep you guessing until the bone-chilling finale.

I totally enjoyed this thriller with its non-formulaic storyline and production qualities. Its originality is bolstered by plot twists and creep-a-licious characters as well as, old fashioned horror. And God bless whoever the genius was that decided NOT to underscore the entire movie with music telegraphing the viewer how to feel next. The lack of dramatic music actually makes this film seem so real, I occasionally forgot to suspend my disbelief -- just in time to be scared all over again. I didn't really recognize any of the actors (and I'm a pretty big movie buff) but that just added to the realism for me. This whole story could have happened to anyone. Well done!
