Bad acting, I never watched true blood but stephen moyers character in this is laughable! so *beep* moody and distant no wonder his family are creeped out but him. example! he sees a mutilated deer fall from a tree! hmmm better keep it to myself and move my family away from the safety off other campers and deeper into the forest... yeah that happens. I no he goes there for a reason, to scatter his fathers ashes, but *beep* that *beep* there is a kangaroo horse demon out there! Absolutely zero chemistry between characters i have have no idea what some of the reviews are getting at. The kangaroo horse devil is hardly in the *beep* movie and when it does show up you wish it hadn't because its so disappointing. I'm all for giving movies a chance but when a movie sucks this bad there is nothing i can think of that is more satisfying than ripping on it. Helps with the pain after witnessing this *beep*

Terrible?

that word does not come anywhere near close enough to how bad this film is.

I disagree with one thing though stephens acting was good. Its just silly the situations they get into and how.

I enjoyed this film, it's a B movie, and considering that it's actually not that bad.

I agree with the OP. I watched the trailer and said to myself, "You don't wanna watch this. This looks like the type of horror movie that constantly compels you to fast forward." But I put it on anyway. And, in the end, I ended up fast forwarding too many times. Really boring movie.

For the most part I agree, but I will say that it is well acted considering that fact that they didn't have much to work with. The F/X are also pretty good (except for some poor c.g.i)

People seem to forget he had RABIES. He was out of his mind and wasn't thinking clearly to begin with.
