The characters are all over the place. There was nothing much in the way of in the way of introducing them, but little clues here and there, and I still don't get how they all ended up in this movie. I didn't want to care about any of them.
Their motives are blurry at best until way past the halfway point, and even then they're weak.
Special effects were interesting red, or green carbonated blobs thrown in for some reason that I suppose were to add some atmosphere, but failed.
In the abandoned lumberyard scene: There had to have been something to cut through the chain, or tire in one of those trucks.
The ending did nothing to resolve any of the questions I had from the get go, aside from the aforementioned motivation. If I had any idea of who these people from the start, it might have been a stronger ending.
Will not be watching this again.

I thought that the 2025 movie "Woods of Ash" was a horror movie, given it's cover. And thus, of course, I opted to watch the movie, as I enjoy the horror genre and always did.
Writers Casey Hamilton and Joe Hamilton delivered a script and storyline that was rather boring and slow paced. This was a thriller and not a horror movie, so points lost right then and there. I was not particularly entertained by the movie, as the narrative fell short of being interesting. And the slow pacing of the narrative didn't exactly help scaling up the movie either.
I was not familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie. And that is actually something that spoke in favor of the movie, as I enjoy watching new and unfamiliar talents on the screen. The acting performances in "Woods of Ash", despite of the bland narrative, were fair.
The movie does have good production value, which definitely does something for the overall enjoyment of the movie, not much, but something.
"Woods of Ash" was a semi-watchable movie, but I have to say that writers Casey Hamilton and Joe Hamilton failed to deliver a script that catered to my liking.
The movie's cover was actually rather cool, but it was also ultimately the best part about the ordeal.
My rating of director Joe Hamilton's 2025 thriller "Woods of Ash" lands on a three out of ten stars.
