Something in the Woods

Obviously this is a low budget type flick. Some of it is interesting. I see some of the crew and friends of the cast have left some reviews here. LoL. My biggest complaint was some of the characters are so dumb and use no commen sense whatsoever. Maybe the people this happened to were really that stupid. Can't recommend this but won't tell you not to watch it.

Not the best acting but if you're a Bigfoot fan like me, you probably won't mind watching this. I liked the story, which is supposed to be based on true events.

The dialogue and delivery are very clunky but it's at least a more believable progression of events for a Bigfoot movie. The creature sound effects were actually pretty creepy, props for that. There's no denying it's a very low budget film but it's not awful. It doesn't demand your undivided attention so if you're into Bigfoot movies I'd recommend having it play while doing the dishes or paperwork etc. Woulda been 5/10 but a few particular scenes were so poorly acted it was plain awkward.

Yes the acting and direction was bad - but so nostalgically so. What do I mean? It is filmed just like the B-movies from from the period they were depicting. The sets were right on for the period. The script, acting, directing and cinematography was so much like movies of the time that if didn't see the modern time scenes it would be hard to know that it wasn't filmed then. That actually would be a difficult thing to do today. For that reason, I assume it was all very intentional -- therefore I have to give major kudos to how well that was pulled off! Because of the nostalgia aspect I actually kind of enjoyed it. Sorry that seems missed by many reviewing. Oh well.

What kind of mindless fools give these movies 8s 9s or 10s? Are your standards that low? Bad acting. I mean BAD. But not the worst. I hate flashback movies because it lets you know right away the people survived. Takes away 90% of the impact of the movie. Same old story; stupud people, stupid decisions, bad......everything....the budget was probably $20,000. I doubt they got that moneyback. The lead actress did like 2 more things and her career ended. This often happens with grade D actors. She was unusually homely but i liked that for a change over the usual 23 year old bimbo blonde "actress" with the obligatory cologen lips, an IQ of ten, and fake boobs. It was not horrible but not good.
