This was such a cool way to experience the Pacific Northwest and had a little bit everything! Creature Feature, some mystery and suspense! Beautiful cinematography and storytelling.

Very natural and raw performances by the cast. Nice twist and turns to keep the viewer engaged while the story unfolds. I would love to see more from this director as he melded mythology and a little Sci-Fi, my 2 favourite genres.

Sequel?

The story seems good, not brand new, but still fine enough to make something out of it. Mythology is usually always a good source of inspiration... But it hardly unfolds with very limited suspense in my pov.

It seems like they were trying to tell a couple of different stories here. There's the whole kidnapping thing and then the Native American mythology angle and the hallucinations. I feel like they were trying to communicate something deep and profound, but it seriously misses the mark.

The cinematography is beautiful and the score is appropriate, the acting is very good. But so much of nothing happens for the first two-thirds of the film as the protagonist searches for his sister. The ending feels like it should be deeply meaningful, but it's just kinda "meh".

Not a bad movie for a rainy afternoon if can't decide between a movie and a nap, but you're leaning towards the nap.

The acting in this film is top notch. You can feel the anguish of Will deep inside your soul. The wisdom, warmth and kindness of Chief George is evident. The backdrop of the Pacific Northwest is stunning. I loved this movie!
