Enter Nowhere

Hollywood Executives could take a few notes from this film.

I came across this title by pure chance. I half read one review that mentioned "Lost" and Twilight Zone" and was sold.

This movie comes across as very low budget I guess $1.7 mil is low budget these days. But don't get me wrong there is nothing wrong with low budget...you know the old cliché'. "It's not how big it is it's what you can do with it that really matters." The movie is mostly shot in one ominous location which gives it a very claustrophobic and tense atmosphere. For the first half of this movie I had no idea what to expect. I was anticipating another horror fest but am happy to report it's nothing like that. About half way through the movie the characters begin to realize how they are all connected. When you find out how, it's a bit of a goose bump moment.

I really dug the moral of the story which is basically how one terrible decision can change not only your life but of those around you in such profoundly life altering ways.

The acting was pretty good, complete unknowns to me but that's a plus in this case. The script felt tight and real. While some may have to considerably suspend their disbelief I felt the premise really worked here.

Highly recommended for anyone into metaphysical contemplation.

I'm sure your able to read the overall premise of 3 strangers showing up at a cabin in the woods. Now for the fun part, figure this one out prior to the reveal. The clues come slowly and you'll eventually only have a minute to blurt out your discovery before it gets handed to you. But if you prefer, just sit back and enjoy.

A group of people begin to show up at a mysterious cabin. They must find a hidden connection before its too late...

This film is simple yet effective. I was shocked when I realized the budget was so low for such great production quality. With an airtight plot and solid acting this film is an instant hit. The story will offer clues and hints along the way that will come together in the end. I would not call this a horror but a thriller/suspense but its very effective. There is some aspects of this movie that reminds me of previous TV shows and movies but this one takes all those plot points and combines it into a solid gem. If this film is not on your watch list I suggest you put it on TOP!!!

"Something isn't right about this cabin."

This was right up my alley: time-slip genealogical horror like something out of The Twilight Zone. It's gloomy, claustrophobic, and will get you thinking about your future choices and the choices of your ancestors in the past.

It randomly appeared on Netflix Japan and I'm glad I decided to give it a try.

Scott Eastwood (son of Clint), Katherine Waterston (daughter of Sam) and Sara Paxton (who, to my knowledge is NOT the daughter of Bill) star in Jack Heller's impressive "Enter Nowhere" which manages to be both the most predictable movie ever made and the least predictable movie ever made. It's also quite an enjoyable and fun ride.

Essentially a cross between "The Cabin in the Woods" (though much better than that overrated film) and a "Lost"-style puzzle box, I saw most of the twists coming from a mile away but I still really, really enjoyed this movie nonetheless even though Paxton sports an unflattering "Lady Mullet" through most of the film.

Also the opening credits are simple awesomeness.....

I watched this movie by accident on the Chiller cable channel. Yeah, with the awful, LONG commercials every 10 or so minutes. With a lesser movie, those commercials would have driven me away from watching more than just a couple minutes. But I braved those commercials because I was really intrigued with the plot and the characters.

Funny that at least one other reviewer mentioned The Twilight Zone and Outer Limits, because that is EXACTLY what I thought while watching. There was no gore to speak of, and no frights in the conventional sense. It just drew me in and made me want to watch it until the end.

The one complaint I have that prevented me from rating this movie higher is all the gratuitous and rather tedious chase scenes through the woods. That was a whole LOT of filler, in my opinion. 15 minutes, at least, could easily have been trimmed from this movie and it would have made for a tighter, more interesting experience for the viewer. But then, maybe the result would not have been long enough for a "feature film." Still, I would recommend this movie for anyone who wants something fun, intriguing, and thought-provoking.
