About This Movie

The pacing is deliberate, building tension as our protagonists, Matthew and Ashley, slowly realize they are in over their heads. Practical effects lend a gritty realism to the horror, avoiding over-reliance on CGI—there’s something chilling about what’s right in front of you. Performances range from delightfully clueless to genuinely creepy, adding layers to the story. It’s distinctive in how it critiques ecotourism while serving up some well-earned scares.
