It is not the scariest movie at all but it did have a few moments that definitely did creep me out. Not a low budget, and not a low quality movie. The story kept me guessing until the very end and the acting was very very good as well. If you like movies that are horror mixed with mystery this is exactly what you get in this film.
It goes like this...This is reality, ok, nope THIS is the real reality, fine... Wrong again THIS is the REAL REAL reality....ah ok...Guess what, they all lying, THIS is the Super duper real and only reality...ok wtf? No worries, its a dream.
In the end the mess is so big that doesnt make sense and the only thing you want is the thing you watch to end so can go on doing something better, like watching mushrooms grow.

Sure, this movie tries to have an artsy, plot-twisty feel. But the two realities that are presented in the movie are easy enough to understand and I thought it was interesting to see both sides of it. It certainly held my attention, and given most movies these days I give it a big plus for that reason alone! The creature designs were interesting enough (albeit low budget, but that isn't always terrible!) I think this movie would even be worth a rewatch, but I don't think it's my new favorite by any means. 5.5(teetering on 6)/10
It's not bad, however, the story jumps around way too much, almost making it tough to know what's going on. I'd say this is more of a thriller and not horror. The cinematography is great, but it's unfortunate that they used some kind of orange and teal filter. Everyone's skin appears orange.
I enjoyed this movie, but it's because I already knew quite a bit about the wendigo urban legend and knew what to expect. If you have no idea about the legend then I'm afraid you'll probably find this to be a confusing mess, or at the worst, boring. I guess people might go into this thinking it's a monster movie but it's actually a slow psychological horror with themes of madness. It works as a good homage to the wendigo legend but I have rated down because the legend isn't well enough explained for newcomers. I thought it was a pretty neat serious psychological horror though.

- WissenswertesPopular culture frequently depicts the Wendigo as a demon/spirit with antlers occasionally portrayed as a human cursed or possessed as a result from cannibalism, it represents an evil embodiment of greed, gluttony and unchecked exploitation of natural resources, serving as a cautionary tale to avoid such behavior. Traditionally the Windego (minus the antlers/horns) was described as a very gaunt, near emaciated human/human form with insatiable hunger, in some stories it grows in proportion to what it consumes to many times the size of humans and thus is always ravenous. Other commin attributes are an overwhelming stench of death, an aura of chilling cold, an ice heart, and tattered or shredded lips/flesh
- PatzerDespite the movie being set in the dead of winter, the characters' breath is never visible.
