Desolation

Nothing really new here except I don't think that I've ever watched a movie where the protagonists decide to go to sleep when they know they're being stalked through the woods as much as this group did...who would be able to sleep?!?!

The small cast did good with what they were given. The initial set-up was tense enough and the killer was somewhat interesting in a mysterious way when he was kept farther away from the group.

But as soon as the killer reached their campsite, the characters start doing dumb things and the killer wasn't so interesting anymore. I was surprised he was able to attack anyone in the dark woods considering he never took his sunglasses off! He had a very blank expression on his face throughout the movie and the most emotion that comes from him is when the kid breaks his sunglasses LOL!

This movie is good except for one major thing. Reasoning. There is none. There is just one small plot with no reason behind it. I am not going to spoil anything about this movie so I will say this, if you have time to kill this is not the worse movie to pick but it far from the best.

The plot is 2 women and one of their sons goes to the woods. They are stalked by a guy for no known reason no explanation and virtually no interaction. Things go bad and then there's an ending. And that's it.

Look, I love a good scary movie. I'll be the first to admit that I even like bad scary movies. So I figured, what the hell, I'll watch this on Netflix. It's bad but not in a good way. The "bad guy" just lingers in the distance, does not have one single line of dialogue, and has no apparent motivations for doing any of what he does through the movie. The relationship between the mother and son is good, but that's the only positive thing I have to say about this. I was bored and actively wishing the movie would end. Also, Mr. Bad Guy, who wears sunglasses in the forest at night? What's your deal? You were so boring but also so intriguing. What even is this movie? Skip it.

A woman, her son and a friend of hers take the ashes of her recently deceased husband to the top of a mountain they use to frequent. Things go well until a strange man wearing sunglasses begins to stalk them.

This one is a slow burner with some decent dialogue and character building but remains mediocre as far as the story goes. A couple of parts may make you cringe and you may wonder how this guy can see out of his glasses at night, but just keep an open mind.

Nothing too earth shattering but not completely boring either.
