Deep in the Woods
I wouldn't label this movie as your typical horror movie. Most horror movies are mainly about killing, with little thought put into the movie, except for what little story it has. At most the most complex they get are when trying to discover who-dun-it. This movie is quite different. During most of the movie you're trying to figure out just what the hell is going on AND who-dud-it. I loved the camera angles used in the movie. At times, the Wolf gave me chills. It was very errie and dark, like the scene with the creepy phone call where the killer chants to it's victom. In the scene where Stéphane is gutting the ferrets, I'm fairly sure they were using real ferrets, which was even more disturbing to me since I am a ferret owner. It gave me the creeps, and made me sick to my stomach... and I loved it! 4 out of 5.
