Karenita This is, quite possibly, the worst movie I have ever seen. I watched it to the end which was nothing short of excruciating. I wanted to make sure I didn't actually miss anything - good. I didn't. Not a single scene had ONE redeeming quality. The acting, by everyone involved, was terrible. I don't mind a slow burn of a movie, hand held camera work, etc. But this movie is painfully boring, pointless, aimless and ridiculous. I saw some people comparing it to "The Blair Witch Project." but let's be fair. That movie was creepy and good and unique (for its time). Comparing "Spirit in the Woods" to it is like comparing a perfect apple to a rotten orange. Skip it.

Bloodmarsh Krackoon When it comes to 'The Blair witch Project,' you either love it or you hate it - there's no middle ground, even if you claim 'it was okay.' You're lying.Personally, I love the film, and I'll go as far as calling it one of my favorite horror films - unfortunately, Anthony Daniel more than likely agrees with me. Unlike Anthony Daniel, I don't feel the need to 'cash in' on the whole found footage trend that's been going around for quite a while now, by tossing out complete and utter garbage like 'Spirit in the Woods.' As I've said many times, the whole found footage deal is a bad director's wet dream. 'Spirit in the Woods' follows the Blair Witch pattern by using the actors real names, for, you know, realism. The lead actress, and I use this term as loosely as possible - Kinsley Funari, spends her time, much like the Heather character in 'Blair Witch' whining and complaining throughout the film, at many levels of annoyance, since the sound is just one of many reasons this film stinks. The difference is, Heather had some decent, and funny characters around her, to keep her annoyance in check. Well, the characters in 'Spirit in the Woods,' are just as worthless as the lead. I did, however, get a chuckle when one of the characters tossed something into the small lake (Hmm, Blair Witch, anyone?) Long story short, this film is just a cash in, and the only compliment I can give any person connected to this trash is - nothing I just saw was done in a serious manner (If it was, God have mercy on your souls.)Random Ramblings of a Madman: 'Spirit in the Woods' is literally one full hour of a group of people wandering through the woods, trying to look lost - and when the climax finally arrives, not only won't you care, but you'll probably have to do a quick rewind, to see what the hell even happened. I'm not even sure a script was involved, since the dialogue is so bad, the actors mess up numerous lines, such as my favorite: 'He probably has no time on his hands,' in a situation where 'He probably has too much time on his hands,' would have made more sense. The film is just all around badly made, with some of the most useless ''actors'' ever put on film. I did follow Kinsley Funari on twitter - maybe she won't read this review?

Marie Greene I knew this movie was in trouble when across the screen toward the beginning, it printed that the filmmakers did "are" best to recover the footage. "Are "instead of "our?" Really? Unfortunately, my fears were confirmed. The actors didn't really act, and didn't seem to care that they didn't care. I kept hoping during the first hour that it would somehow get better perhaps when the action picked up, but the action in the first hour didn't pick up. The acting got no better. So, the entire first hour absolutely sucked, and the final part wasn't even scary. Waste of time. I think my own teenagers could have pulled it off better. It seemed a throwaway, just get it done mishmash.

jmbwithcats Objectively speaking, this movie has terrible acting, the first 55 minutes is wandering the woods, rambling, where nothing happens, the camera pans around and you think you might see something, which can be kind of cool, but so deep into the movie and nothing has happened is a stretch to even call it a movie... then when anything does happen, you see a white faced wraith like face, and that is IT. That's it. That's all you get... some shook up guys, a guy with blood on his hands and shirt, blurry camera-work, a long narrative, and that is it. I am astonished how the producer even considered funding this movie. It's devoid of redeeming qualities, it blows my freaking' mind. The producer actually told me he funded it just to make an easy return to fund his own projects.... Yes, that's the truth, any movie no matter how bad will make money, because you can make a very formulaic horror film for so little these days and get some kind of return, can't argue with you there, but it is dragging down the genre big time when all one is doing it for is the money.
