After reading reviews, the film sounded pretty decent.
When I saw the star rating, I thought, well, most horror movies don't always get a good rating, so I never really trust the ratings.
This film was definitely not what I expected.
Did have a good twist, but it was very average.
I wouldn't say this was scare whatsoever.
The storyline is average too.
Would I recommend this?
Probably not. It's the kind of film where you watch it, think.. "er, well, it's ok" but it's not something I'd watch again, nor will I probably remember.
The sad thing is, is that this film could have been so much better if it was written a bit better.
I just feel like the whole thing "could have been better".

Cabing Girl follows Van Girl, a vlogger who tracked her travels in her van after her parents die. She switches to a cabin after she has an accident involving a deet and has a resulting head injury. As she settles into life in a fixer-up cabin in an isolated rural small town. Then, weirdness starts happening.
While this film as a slower pace, and lots of sunlight that can be confusing for a typical found footage films, Cabin Girl is a slowburn that explores the main character's experience of supernatural phenomenon and symptoms of her head trauma. This makes for confusing viewing as the watcher isn't certain what is happening. Add in a potential stalker, and Cabin Girl had me guessing on my red herrings.
Easy to watch with decent performances by the actors. Plotting and script are okay but not advanced. Overall, it made for decent viewing.

After a highway accident during a road trip to get over the death of her parents, a travel-vlogger restarts her channel from a cabin she's decided to settle down in. But is the previous resident really gone?
Lively start, ends up a mess. The motivations of the characters are inept, not only at the highest level involving the trauma of the protagonist, but at the mid-level in the way others become involved with her, down to the most basic level of why characters move around in a scene.
What on earth has the death of her parents got to do with the story? Or the death of the previous occupant? Why on earth is there a romance with the mechanic? How on earth does she plot-point-alert bump into the doctor and the bar owner when she's going away from the van that she was just walking toward? It's like things just happen 'for reasons'. To put it another way, the action does not flow from specific motivation; rather, motivation is tacked on to the action so that you feel the director's hand.
The production values are mostly not bad, and I admit that I had a sense that the endless Nancy Drew cliches were a trail of symbols that would lead to a bizarre reveal of the character's psychology. But in the end it feels like a child showing you a colour-by-numbers picture plastered with crazy crayon.
The editing declines in quality, with too much footage of how a character gets from point A to point B, and repetition of shots that don't tell us anything new - particularly of the stalker, and that damn floorboard. The spooky bits ain't all that, with no feel for shadow and the music too obvious. Add in some flabby dialogue, and it's no wonder some of the performances are less than convincing.
I kinda liked the song over the end credits, but ... no - somebody is to blame.

Cabin Girl is the kind of psychological thriller that keeps you guessing, even when it stumbles. Packed with a rich story, layered characters, and just a hint of supernatural intrigue, it feels like a lovechild of Gone Girl and The Sixth Sense, with an added sprinkle of The Others for good measure. The film excels in crafting a captivating mystery-within-a-mystery, delivering red herrings like a magician pulling rabbits out of a very stylish hat.
The direction is generally strong, deftly juggling shifting tones and atmospheres, but it's not without hiccups. A few scenes drag on longer than a politician's speech, and some moments feel as heavy-handed as a hammer in a glass shop-padding out the runtime rather than enhancing the narrative.
That said, the performances are refreshingly above average. The cast injects enough gravitas to keep the tension taut, even when the pacing falters. The supernatural elements, meanwhile, are woven in with a light touch, adding an eerie charm without veering into camp.
For fans of brain-teasing mysteries with a side of atmospheric chills, Cabin Girl is well worth a watch. Just don't expect perfection-this girl stumbles occasionally, but she's got plenty of intriguing secrets to share.

In an age of meta, self-aware, and overly-layered 'horror' films, Cabin Girl is a nice example of doing the basics (good writing, good acting, good execution) the best you can first, and getting an engaging, titillating film.
Certainly more thriller than horror, Cabin Girl works in Hitchcockian fashion, focusing on real dramas that play out between real characters. It's kind of a secret weapon that many filmmakers have forgotten, that audiences can't help but be engaged with relatable characters, the choices they make, and the results they must contend with.
Great performances by Rose Lane Sanfilippo and Austin Scott, looking like both are ready to become household names. Deft execution with the camera reminds us that it's an effective tool.
Good watch from beginning to end!
