Beyond the Woods (2018) Reviews
Smells like Sa-teen spirit
A group of young adults go to a remote home for a holiday. Unfortunately a sink hole has opened up a few miles away and a strong sulfur smell is present. They joke about the gates of hell opening up. Slowly their actions change slightly and things start to happen as souls are collected. The horror build up was slow. It had a few things I didn't see coming. Too much of the horror was off screen, most likely a budget issue. I think the heaven-hell discussion was a complete bore and they could have used that time to let us get to know the characters better. Guide: F-word. Loud Sex. No nudity.
Well acted , poorly written
I was almost instantly impressed with the acting in the opening few minutes of this movie. 7 friends gather in a farm house to reminisce about old times. The actors seem like genuine people and real friends, there is some great character work by the actors and all seem very real. One may seem a little OTT , but that's down to him being written as a typical jerk. The premise is good. These friends more or less trapped in this farm house with a mysterious sink ( or should I say stink ) hole opened up two miles away, that maybe spewing up more than nasty smells. Once the friends start to get menaced by a mysterious presence it starts to go down hill. It feels like the writer, who also directs, doesn't seem to know where the story and this antagonistic force is going. It's powers seem undefined , and seems to be able to do what ever the plot demands and has seemingly Omnipotent abilities . Yet we have a dude dressed as Skeletor walking round with an axe. Lot's of questions are raised but very few are answered. It's light on actual horror and gore aswell. The character work is great and cinematography, lighting etc all looks to a good standard . The movie does have a somewhat cheap feel to it too. The man behind this has talent as a director but maybe should work of someone else's script . The cast are top notch and does make you care about the characters . Overall good potential, but lack of experience behind the camera shows
Good drama
Actually good relationship and friendship unraveling drama disguised as a horror movie. Definitely not something you'd want to watch for a cheap scare.
Worth A Watch
The best part of the movie is the acting...I think that's what held the movie together...locales- simply beautiful...direction - not bad, but he didn't know how to end...all horror aspects are cliches, but as I said, the actors keep you engaged.
Loved this movie.
Came across this movie on Sky and ended up buying it in HD. I wasn't sure what to expect because most of the critical reviews were great but there were some over the top bad user reviews. After having watched it I can only assume those people auditioned for the movie and didn't get the job! The acting is top notch first off. I was really impressed with the standard of acting in this. Overall production values/special effects are great. It feels like a modern take on a classic cabin in the woods horror film. Not enough blood and gore in the film unfortunately and I would have loved more scenes out in the woods during the day. More on screen kills and woods scenes and I'd probably rate this higher but none the less it's a must see for real horror fans. An unexpected gem.
