A lot of bouncing around. Started off strong but ending threw the whole movie off.
I found myself hoping the movie would focus on the two of them tripping together in the forest. The Wendigo stuff kind of got in the way.
Meh....way too much bouncing around and the scare factor is weak.
Nah I couldn’t watch it all. Need I say more. Just my thoughts tho.
It was aiight, ending was kinda lame. But, the general mind fuckery, and the hallucinogenic stuff was pretty cool, and the idea is there. Plus it’s a wendigo flick so, points I guess. I’d say it’s worth a watch.
