Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis appears to be one of three times Kevin Smith has appeared as Silent Bob in a film that's not his, the other two being Scream 3 and Fanboys. Though this is open to some debate as Jason Mewes's character refers to him as "John," yet he is wearing the same costume as seen in Mallrats.
- Crazy creditsJosh Stafford - cookie inspector/cat poisoner
- Alternate versionsThe DVD Features two versions of the film. The normal version and the 'Director's Cut' which is four minutes longer. The DVD Also features deleted scenes which include two longer takes of the guys on the couch talking about what they're going to do, two takes of the Directors as fanboys, and a take of the directors trying to get Jason Mewes to act.

I Personally Thought that it was Good.
*** out of **** I really enjoyed this neat little Canadian Gem. It was funny, interesting, realistic, creepy, and original. I've seen it four times now, and it is just as good as when i saw it the first.
A group of slackers have no money and are on the verge of actually getting a job when one of them, Donner(Jason Lee), wants to go to his uncle's cabin in the woods with them. What they don't realize is that Donner is going insane and really just wants to look for Sasquach. They're too stoned to realize this though and proceed with him into the woods.
The best thing about this film is definitely Jason Lee's performance. He gives so much depth and personality that could have otherwise been disposable. The rest of the characters are pretty much spot on. They are mostly likable, especially Renee Humphrey's character. The only one who doesn't quite work is Jason Mewes, although he is still funny as usual. In fact, the only real reason why his character doesn't work is because he practically plays the same person as he usually does. But he's good at it, so it doesn't really matter. Carmen Lee gives the film a nice dose of sanity while Martin Brooks does his thing.
I love the rough feel of the film and i like how deadpan it is. It is perfectly enjoyable. Maybe not life changing, but still pretty cool. Check it out, if you can find it!!! I showed it to my little sister and she loved it!!!
