Good story, Not enough for a whole film
Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
Terrible terrible acting, terrible costume design for the alien. The only thing decent about this movie is the man vs wild tv show theme. They could have done so much better with that premise...even with the terrible actors. Just dont waste ure time.
This film starts with the modern day Survivalist in the wild theme as a premise as the main character throughout the film. The idea is its another reality TV show that is typical of many that have come and gone over the last decade or so of that particular genre. Basically it's a familiar sign of the times back drop profession for the main character to motivate us the viewer to watch his documented "Survivalist" style TV show. Its a good setting to use for the Blair Witch formula of "Documented Film Footage" angle to be inserted in this movie.He films and narrates his self in the woods far from the big city. With that the story become's mysterious in the first day of his five day outing in the wilderness. When suddenly he awake's from the ground he was sleeping on by a rumbling noise and sound ???
If you have not researched this move, then what I am about to post is not necessarily a spoiler. The pacing of this movie was excellent until the last 20 minutes. I thought that the Predator angle on this had already been done by Predator, and Predator was a lot more intimidating. Let's start with the pacing. I thought they nailed the flow of setting up the arc of the movie quite well as the original thought was there was a a psycho out there in the woods. They patiently set up scenes where it may have stayed true to a reality survival TV series. As Doug, the main character discovers that someone is stalking him in the woods, the story takes on a suspense and wonderment into the character of the stalker. Had they continued on this theme this would have been a great movie. As the movie turns and the stalker is revealed in the last 20 minutes, the pacing is thrown out the window and it becomes Predator without Arnold and credible Hollywood action sequences. The alien plays chess with Doug and taunts him. That is never developed and we don't know anymore psychologically about the alien except that they have some control of the earth. It was like they ran out of the budget before they could finish the movie. An interesting glimpse in the psychology of the stalking alien would have made it more interesting, a backwoods psycho would have even been better and would leave a lasting impression and have a greater psychological effect on the viewer
This movie starts off interesting enough to keep you from turning it off, but quickly becomes unwatchable. The alone journey of one character was poorly written and the cgi at the end of the movie was so bad it makes you wonder why attempt this movie. I cannot fathom how one sits through this film and feels any type of satisfaction at the end.
