3/10
Disappointing horror-attempt.
30 May 2022
Why on earth did they come up with such a complicated and nonsensical characteristic for the monster (namely it specifically attacks and subsequently eats people that themselves have eaten human flesh), it adds nothing to the rest of the story and makes the mere existence of the monster just as enigmatic as it already was! The monster itself is rather unimpressive (it seemed to be nothing more than a guy in a creepy suit), and its eating people alive was mostly restricted to taking a big bite out-of someone's neck, hardly the voracious devouring that you might expect or had hoped for. So the score on gore was (apart from an encouraging openings scene) disappointingly low.

The acting is reasonable, the atmosphere is pleasantly creepy, but at several times the pace sagged and all the aimless wandering through the dark forest became a bit repetitive and tedious. In spite of some stupid actions of the last girl standing we did get a satisfying finale, but overall my (hardly) lasting impression is: forgettable.
