Synopsis

Kayla and Jesse loved spending their childhood summers at their grandfather's secluded cottage in the pristine mountains of rural New England. Now, fifteen years since their last visit, the sisters return along with Kayla's boyfriend Dean and his best-friend Tobe for a much-needed break from their busy lives in New York. But when a simple fishing accident leads the foursome to follow an unexplored shortcut through the woods, the lives of this small group of friends are shattered forever as they suddenly find themselves facing the shocking and terrible curse of one of America's most haunted places.

Redwarmin This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place
Aedonerre I gave this film a 9 out of 10, because it was exactly what I expected it to be.
Hulkeasexo it is the rare 'crazy' movie that actually has something to say.
Brooklynn There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.
jacobjohntaylor1 This is a pooh pooh movie. It is not scary. It has an awful story line. It has awful acting. It a pooh pooh movie. Pooh pooh pooh. It you want to get scared see Sleep Hollow (1999) do not see this movie.
loomis78-815-989034 Two sisters, Kayla (Ravensbergen) and Jessie (Caron) are deep in the woods with their boyfriends hiking to their Grandparents cottage. They come across the remains of a house on the way there where a terrible evil once happened. Without knowing they unleash a supernatural force that follows them to the Cottage. Jessie's body is discovered and brought to the cottage where it reanimates and tries to kill them. Writer/Director Michael Penning working from no budget makes great use of his location and wisely delivers solid atmosphere into this weird tale of supernatural. The movies strongest point is keeping the audience off balance and wondering what is coming next. Along the way there is some hair raising moments and a few genuine scares. Penning put together a good cast here which helps considerably. This is no masterpiece but a tidy little horror film that does what it set out to do.
Bobs may contain spoilers This is a really good movie and is surprisingly a low budget film and you don't even realize it. The acting is very good, the teens are appealing and are very good actors and fit perfectly for this movie. The plot line and development is really good and keeps you hooked through out the entire movie. The scare factor of this movie keeps you on the edge of your seat the entire time for you to be ready to jump. The only negative to this movie is it might be just a little difficult to follow through but if you keep up it is an excellent movie. The filming is pretty decent and the setting is really good. The only other thing is the lighting is a little dim to see in some parts of the movie where it is darker. This is an over all good movie defiantly and enjoyable viewing Just be ready for the ending.
Woodyanders Spunky Jesse (fetching Christina Caron), her sweet sister Kayla (foxy Freya Ravensbergen), Kayla's affable and thoughtful boyfriend Dean (nicely played by Matt Turner), and Dean's best bud Tobe (likable Jon Deitcher) venture into the deep woods in order to rest and relax at a summer getaway cottage. However, the quartet wind up running afoul of a mysterious sinister and supernatural force haunting the immediate area. Writer/director Michael Penning relates the compelling story at a steady pace, makes effectively creepy use of the remote sylvan setting, and ably builds a spooky atmosphere that becomes more increasingly bleak, eerie, and unnerving as the narrative unfolds towards a shockingly grim surprise conclusion. The four main characters are all well acted, appealing, and, most importantly, realistically drawn (for example, one guy breaks down and cries after discovering the mangled body of his friend). Geoff Klein's sharp cinematography gives the picture an impressively polished look. Penning's spare'n'shuddery score likewise does the shivery trick without ever getting too obtrusive or overbearing. The startling moments of sudden savage violence pack a pretty nasty punch. The tight 74 minute running time ensures that this movie doesn't overstay its welcome. Well worth a watch.
