The Shortcut (2009)

Starring: Raymond J. Barry, Katrina Bowden
Director: Nicholaus Goossen

Synopsis:
Two brothers who are new to town find a shortcut in the woods. The shortcut has a legend behind it and soon the old legend starts all over again.

My Take:
There's nothing new in this movie which covers familiar territory. It has plot holes. It has nonexistent gore. It has decent acting. It has a spark of charm. It has good scenery. In the end, it's an OK watch and one you will soon forget.

Rating: In the middle
