Summary: the hype is confusing
Review: To say I was eagerly anticipating this film is a major understatement. Have you heard all the hype about the brilliance of letting three kids loose in the woods with hand-held cameras? Some brilliance...unfortunately, the revered camera footage made me physically ill...literally. I had to leave the theatre to throw up.I wasn't scared. I wasn't interested. I was confused. And then it hit me...advertising is genius! THAT'S how they got me into the theatre! I was just a sheep! This film has approximately 30 seconds of redemption- the last scene. That's it. This was a real disappointment for me because I love independent film in general and was glad these guys got their turn- I just didn't feel it was deserved in this case. Good idea, nice mythology... really bad flick. (Not to mention the nausea. I'm serious about this one.) If you haven't seen it, just watch the trailer. That's the entire movie in a nutshell.

Summary: I'm confused
Review: Granted, I found it quite scary. I watched it at 2:00 in the morning with my wife. I didn't sleep until 5:00. I was under the impression the film is based on fact. Now I've read it was a set up, including the web site. Could somebody let me know what the story is? I watched the French version so I probably didn't pick up everything. Bottom line, if it's a true story I'm scared, if it's just Hollywood I'm P.O.ed. Kindly let me know. Much obliged.

Summary: It's ok...
Review: I saw this movie, expecting it to scare me out of my mind like everyone said it would. What I found instead was a shaky, potty-mouthed, slow film. It actually put my friend to sleep! I'll say this in it's favor though, it was a pretty good idea. The main problem is that it seems to drag on forever without anything interesting happening until the last 5 minutes or so which go by fast and left me confused. All in all, it isn't horrible, but it isn't as great as I thought it would be.

Review: This movie is neither shockingly candid nor well improvised by the actors....to sum it up, i could eat a can of Kodak and puke up a better film.

Summary: Great idea, good execution
Review: I thought the idea was fantastic, yet would have been scarier if it was ultimately about some freaked out killer instead of witches. (It's just more believable). Without a doubt the movie serves ample doses of the worst fear of all...the anticipation of seeing something while seemingly lost in the woods. I'm sure tons of people who dislike the movie constantly whined throughout the movie "Show us something! ". But that's exactly what made it good, the night scenes kept you on the edge without pushing you over. Once you see a horror scene it brings with it a sense of finality and the movie will lose the excitement more and more each time you see it. This one plays on your own fears and manifests upon them. I couldn't help but to put myself in with the group throughout the movie and think of what i would do. (besides slapping Heather silly). If the conversations would have been a little more realistic and the fear the characters showed more tense and desperate, this would be a 5 star flick. But there wasn't enough time to develop a relationship with the characters so I couldn't root for them. This should have been a longer movie with more character development. still a good flick though if you see it late at night with the sound jacked up......

Summary: Donald Duck Was More Scarier Than This Flop
Review: One of the worst films I've ever seen. The screen shakes so much and I almost threw up I mean geez I could do (have) this film in the woods with a really really cheap camera. Also it seems the only word Heather Donahue seems to know in the movie is f--- If you are smart you wouldn't rent this film it's not even scary I mean if ooze dripping from trees and a full moon scares you maybe you should see a doctor.

Summary: ugh
Review: I rarely feeled compelled to write a review about a movie, but in this case, I had to. As someone that loves a good horror movie (and there hasn't been one in a while!), I was anxious to see this film. What a disappointment! How anyone could be "terrified" by this embarrassment is beyond me. I was close to actually stopping this movie half-way through, and I always finish a movie, no matter how bad it is. All I could do was grit my teeth and listen to the non-stop bickering and the god-awful screaming. And please don't give me the "originality" argument! "Original" does not necessarily equal "Good"..... The only "Scary" thing about this movie, is how many people gave it good reviews!

Summary: Ok as a student movie
Review: This was a great student movie, but the plot was too thin to hold any real interest after about 45 minutes. The main female character's voice is awful and annoying, and I was wishing death on her before the hour was up. It wasn't scary at all, and after about 30 minutes, I kind of hoped they'd hurry up and get killed so I could leave the theatre. Just not believable. Why didn't they just follow the river out of the woods? Rivers don't flow in circles folks. Who goes camping without at least a couple cartons of cigarettes? Why not start a forest fire. Those dolts deserved to die. Mildy enjoyable at best.

Summary: Terrible AND Boring...a double offense
Review: What a stupid movie.... I couldn't stop laughing at how NOT scary it was. The character's were so annoying, it was a relief when they started to disappear. Don't waste your time. I get soooo scared by anything remotely scary and this had me LAUGHING. Awful awful awful.
