Into the Forest

I didn't know it was possible to hate a movie within 30 seconds of the start....but this managed it.

Thought i would give this a watch even though it had a low rating. The quality of the movie is good, i just wish that the story had been better, a whole lot better. The acting you get used to as i have seen worse .

You are waiting for something to happen in the plot all the way through from the random drunk guy to the dad that gets taken away. You get a snippet of what could be, then... nothing. There is no conclusion to the end of the story aside from keeping you hanging which is just frustrating and i just wished i hadn't bothered.

Definitely not a bad movie. I was oddly surprised by how much I enjoyed it. Any time someone is caught in the woods in the dark there's usually a pretty good chance it's gonna be scary. The characters were somewhat unique, they weren't annoying like some groups in movies. The one guy was but it was kind of his job as a youtuber. I wish more had happened but there was enough intensity and creepy scenes to make up for a lack of actual visual effects. It's not a movie that's gonna stick in my head but it was decent. Acting pretty good, dialogue fairly good, storyline ok, scenes ok-good. It's not a hit but it's definitely not deserving of 1 star. Some people just have incredibly high expectations. Some blood but no gore or nudity.

'Into the forest' 3/10 = Abandon 🌠🌠🌠

The first priority and main objective for shooting a found footage horror flick in one word would be realism. The actors should appear genuine or as natural as possible but "Into the forest" through out the entire film achieves the exact opposite. Whether it was a character screaming into oblivion shouting with fear that's inauthentic or watching someone have a fake seizure that wouldn't convince a 10yo. Nothing will ruin a found footage film quicker than losing the belief or feeling that it's real. In a genre that's heavily saturated for and by millennials too many filmmakers think if they use amateur or unknown actors and film using handheld or shaky camera effects it will give the movie a boost of realism. Usually it does but that's not the case if every scene comes across appearing forced or scripted. I wouldn't recommend this film for viewers and suggest steering clear of it entirely.

Sweet jesus don't waste your time on this garbage, the scariest thing about this one hour movie is the guy wearing black socks pulled half way up to his knees with shorts on. Lol 🤣
