'Into The Forest' is a post apocalyptic film about two sister learning to survive on their own in their cabin home. The film hits the ground running, immediately relieving the characters of their electricity and forcing their ingenuity to take form.
There is nothing foreign or alien about the film. There isn't a war going on and their isn't an invasion from another planet; society just stops working. This leaves you chilled to the bone as the things that were once commonplace become the very things that nightmares are made of. The human element of this film is both what gives you the hope to move forward and the despair that holds you back. There is also an element of unease that makes you nervous the entire time because we all know that people cannot be trusted.
Page and Wood excel in this character piece about survival and loyalty, and will make you want to go home and hug your sister. 7/10
