Horror in the Forest (2023)
Astonishingly bad
I don't understand why they haven't been sued by the writers of The Blair Witch Project. Its like The Blair Witch but....auful. Also is very poor visually. They are all spotlessly clean...while camping in the apparent deep dark wood, while being tormented by crazy locals and a witch. It looks like a studio or well maintained play park, I feel the illusions of deep forest was never there to begin with. No depth to storyline or characters. I feel like many of the reviews here are likely by family/friends of the cast and crew as the stars awarded and reviews given are a far cry away from the true waste of time that is this film.
The Winter Witch (2022)
Incredible
It's incredible this film was ever funded, incredible that after seeing the final product it was allowed to be released. Incredibly boring, no depth at all to the characters or story. No 3rd act conflict. It's not even clear where this is occurring for a while. No scares, no character development, and no explanation as to how the witch came to be, how did the lassy (girl played by a 25 year old) find the special, particular tree so easily? Why does it only banish the witch for 12 years. How was a woman-child able to banish the witch that had been around for hundreds of years in seconds, without being in any danger and with such ease. Doesn't this make them all bad people that they allowed so many wains to die when they could have taken care of the witch without even a minor inconvenience? How did woman go from such contempt for her husband (are the married? As its never explained) to adoring him in seconds? This film had the potential to be brilliant, a couple of co-writers to strengthen the script would have made a huge difference. The opening/closing music was beautiful and opening shots of forest were stunning. But that's it.
Ps. Question at the end of writing this review "does your review contain spoilers? Naw, there's nothing to spoil.

Dangerous Waters (1999)
Howler of a film
Terrible, stiff, unnatural acting, with an even poorer script. Film had no substance. Saw the 'twist' coming a mile off. Astounding to me that it did not get done for massively, and poorly, plagerising from The River Wild. Avoid this waste of time.
