The Rating System

All opinions are my own. We are all different. What I may think is great, you may this terrible. Don't let my opinios stop you from exploring the vast world of horror in all media.

~Mind Blowing: Search for this movie immediately. It can only be described as pure greatness and possible an instant classic.

~So Good: Highly recommended because for one reason or another it stands out above the usual fair. Put the movie on your radar as it wont disappoint.

~In the Middle: The movie is a nothing special, average affair. It may entertain in the short term but it will be easily forgettable in the long haul.

~Warning: This movie is a cliched driven slop of familiar territory. Only watch if you're really of fan of this type of material.

~Steaming Pile: The movie is absolute garbage, a complete bore, and not worth the time or effort.

Backcountry (2015)

Starring: Missy Peregrym, Eric Baflour, Nicolas Campbell
Director: Adam MacDonald

Premise:
A couple goes on a hiking weekend only to get lost deep in the wilderness and into the territory of a grizzly bear.

My Take:
A slick film which builds the characters as they get into their bad situation and manages to keep the suspense high until the end. A outstanding gore scene too (but I wont spoil it).

Rating: So Good
