Newly engaged couple are heading home after a big party. Getting lost in the wood after an encounter with a hitchhiker the couple slowly realize that they have crossed into a different reality.
This is a really weird film that plays all sorts of games with reality. There are lots of questions about what is going on. I was, for a much of the film completely locked and loaded, willing to go anywhere the film was taking me...
And then suddenly the film lost me. It didn't do anything. It just stopped being compelling being compelling because it didn't seem to be going anywhere. Sure I wanted to see where it went, but all of the tension was gone. It seemed like it was just going on to reach feature length rather than having a definite ending.
While the conclusion is fine, it doesn’t recover from the loss of suspense.
