Stupid
3 October 2012
Warning: Spoilers
Where to begin? The amount of stupid things that happened in this movie is ridiculous. The plot was as advanced as an etiquette class taught by johnny Knoxville. The jersey devil nonsense was fine but I just thought it was a terrible plot. First, why would a guy get but by a dog that was foaming at the mouth, a clear sign of rabies and then just not say anything or seek medical attention? Thats idiotic. Second, after they drive into the woods and see a shredded deer crawl out of the tree line why would they all just climb back in the car as if nothing happened. A person with borderline common sense would at least tell the park ranger about it. Then there is just like a million signs that say don't go into these woods or you will die. People keep mentioning strange stuff but the idiot father decides going deeper into the woods is a bright idea and no one really objects. The whole plot was just crap. I get that its a movie and all but at least make it seem halfway plausible. If I decide to go camping and see a deer stumble from the trees with its entrails leaking out I'm not sticking around for smores. Do people realize that a horror film can make sense? It doesn't have to consist of some idiots just running smack into a monster around every turn.This movie failed.
