It was okay. Glad it wasn't just a rehash of the original (which I have a little fondness for, as many issues that one had). This one seemed to have elements of The Witch to me and at least found it mildly entertaining and I liked Charlotte Vega in the lead. However, found the six main characters to be just dumb asses, but maybe that's the most realistic element, I can see 20-somethings going off-trail like that. Anyway, doubtful I'll ever watch (anytime soon) but probably worth a rental. **3.0/…

I've long said that if you're going to bother remaking a film, it either needs to be a genuine continuation of the original, or a reboot, that offers a different spin on the same basic concepts. This film certainly falls into the latter category, but that's about the only thing it does right. Everything else, from writing to acting is an unbelievably cringey misfire, that manages to offend and belittle every demographic, in nearly equal doses. This isn't a film for right-wingers, and though it t…

Really good watch, would watch again, and can recommend. This has very little to do with the original other than weird people hunting people in the woods.

The movie also does something I've noticed some movies have been doing somewhat recently where the movie ends, but continues with what feels like a new story, related …

The main cast are so evil towards the dumb yokel country folk... presumably for the social crime of not being urban elites, and so pretentious even when they are talking to themselves that you actually want to see them die. You aren't scared, you are rooting for the bad guys because the good guys that you are supposed to relate to, supposed to like, supposed to want to survive are so geographically hateful, so pretentious, so self absorbed, that the only pleasure you get is seeing them killed…

At first when I started watching this movie, I thouht it was another propaganda crap movie. It started with the group from an interracial and a gay couple who were typical city spoiled brat, woke liberals. They were so annoying and stupid that I was actually rooting for the bad guys to kill those annoying pricks and surpringly, they did. Only two of them survived, one which joined the bad guys and other one who just escaped. Ending in fact satisfied me.
