Maurice Ripke in The Woodsman (2012)

Review by StationKeeper

The Woodsman

7/10

Does what it set out to do.

Hi. I'm a frequent watcher of Found Footage/Mockumentary films and enjoy the genre.

Let's be honest, many folks go with found footage to fill in for what you're missing - actors, script, location. It's to have a built in 'out'.

I was pleasantly surprised with this film. The lead actor mainly carries it. He's very charismatic, and a welcome change from running around the woods shouting someone's name. He's not going for an Oscar here, but he's got some acting chops. When everything starts to go wrong, you feel for him. This is something that's often missing in Found Footage films.

The script, while nothing special, keeps it simple and that's a smart move. There's an edge to it that I also quite enjoyed. The scares are short, sharp and brutal.

In short, if you're a FF fan, or if you want to pass the time for 90 minutes this is worth a watch.
