Waste of time
zhivago9730 July 2021
This movie has everything a movie should avoid: terrible acting, shallow characters, uninspiring storyline, amateur direction and weird musical score. What else can go wrong with this movie?

Well add to that list an ultra low budget, which means zero production value (think: someone's little brother behind the bushes making sound effects.)

Is there any upside? Yes. There is some humor and it's timed well. The two main characters, the hikers, are actually both relatable and likable which always helps a movie. But this is overshadowed by all the other challenges this movies faces.

Jokes aren't as funny when a movie suffers "low budget-itus" or the sense you are watching something homemade. That's the biggest issue: it feels homemade, and poorly homemade, at that.

While I applaud the effort (are these film students?) that doesn't change the fact that this is a really bad movie. And it's movies like this that give the horror genre a bad reputation.

Garbage
rablfc27 May 2023
Up there with the worst films I've ever seen. People scoring this nine and ten have clearly only just discovered moving images.

I'm not sure what is worse the acting or the storyline?

On a hike in the forest two walkers discover various characters along the way who reasons only known to themselves want to do our intrepid walkers some harm.

There is no plot or story worth trying to keep up with.

I get that budding film directors and actors have to start somewhere but for this to be available on major streaming services and scored 3/5 is laughable.

If you value your sanity do not watch.

Avoid at all costs!

What a hike
joanodle7 April 2021
I've watched 3 times and love it. Great actors plus beautiful scenery right in the Great Smoky Mountains. There's something for everyone in this movie. It is a must see film.

I loved this film! The humor was there as well as the suspense! You can really see the hard work these people put in this project! Chick that played Robyn is a beauty! Vin and Luke were great at hashing out the story! It's great to see people using thier own means to put out films for others to enjoy! Especially in these trying times! ....and Damn Scott can cook anything!!

Absolutely hilarious
joshuajjohnson1 May 2021
This movie was movie was bad in all the right ways. I just can't get enough of campy comedy horror movies. This film is shortly becoming a cult classic and I can't wait until I can buy it and add it to my collection.

Movie is great.
zacadamthomas6 May 2021
After watching this movies, my life changed. This movie will make you enter a deep state of being, kinda like Doctor Strange in Infinity War. Movie had me on the edge of my seat the whole time. As thrilling as taken, as funny as clerks, with as much excitement Endgame. Don't listen to haters watch this movie.

Well worth watching. Great scenes, actors, and story line. Campy and funny.

I watch a lot of "indy" films through the course of the a year, but mostly are shorts. I sat down to watch this as soon as it hit the streaming service, and will have to say I loved it. A little for everyone for sure. Some funny stories and a bit campy. But that really rolls this into being an enjoyable film to watch. I see this film winning many awards during the indy screenings. With a budget less than a new car this team did an awesome job! Looking forward to more from this group....

Fantastic.
maddog-8848720 June 2021
Don't believe the low ratings here. The haters will hate. This is a very well done movie. Luke Walker and Vinnie Vineyard will amaze you at what they do. This movie starts off with Vinnie telling a story that has become somewhat a wrestling folklore and shows that they know where they come from. From there it is a wild ride . This is a great film and to not see it is doing yourself a incredible disservice.
