Creature in the Woods is an indie horror so obscure that IMDB doesn't even have 5 ratings to give it an average and this will be the movies very first review.
It saddens me that its first review has to be a bad one and I'll be very surprised if it gets any good ones in future, even shill ones as they'd have happened by now surely?!
It tells the story of three friends who venture into the forest to film a survival documentary, they are warned of a mysterious "Wild Man" and advised to stick to the path. Of course they don't heed the warnings and tragedy ensues.
For some reason I wanted to like this. Yes it's cliched and yes the exact storyline I just described has been done to death as have these hyper low budget indie films but it had a charm. Sadly the charm simply isn't charming enough and this falls into the category of just another found footage flick.
The Good:
Has a certain charm to it
The Bad:
One of the three characters is deeply annoying
Nothing even remotely original
The creature looks awful
Things I Learnt From This Movie:
You can't outrun a bear, no seriously I didn't know that!
If you identify that a creature is VERY dangerous, sprint after it
Chewbacca is down on hard times
