I cannot understand all the rave reviews for this mediocre movie.
It starts off well, with a mystery of three strangers turning up to a lone cabin in the woods.
The first half of the movie is taken up with often tedious dialogue as the three try to figure out how they're seemingly stranded, and how to get home.
I was sitting there with my remote in hand itching to press the fast forward button but I resisted. I did take a break in the DVD at around 56 minutes to get something to eat. And I needed the break. The movie at this point was starting to bore me.
And then the plot twists to something that I figured might happen. Three people linked by some curious historic event. We then come to the conclusion but I had already figured out the end before then.
The acting isn't anything special. Nothing of any great note happens either. It's all quite predictable and uninteresting. Note here how I'm trying to avoid SPOILERS.
It's easy to see why this movie went straight to DVD.
All in all, the movie's okay, but nothing special. I most certainly couldn't watch it again.
Only 4 out of 10 from me. It's really baffling how so many people see this movie as a cult classic. They must have seen a lot of very bad movies to think this one is good or even great. It's laughable really.
