Young woman goes home to find her missing brother and finds herself lost in the woods. She ends up getting help from a voice on a radio.
A great looking and expertly made film is done in by a structure that is all over the place. Flashbacks are mixed with seemingly random images. The time frame is fragmented. The simple tale of young woman trying to find her brother and sort out the circumstances of a parent gets completely lost in flashy editing. Designed to look like our heroine’s thoughts the telling is jumbled. It doesn’t really work and instead looks like someone who got carried away in the editing sweet.
It’s a shame because instead of being a kick ass thriller, the images and the basic story are very good, the film becomes tiresome. A little bit of crazy editing goes a long way.
Only for horror junkies or those who love amazing images in film.
