It is not the scariest movie at all but it did have a few moments that definitely did creep me out. Not a low budget, and not a low quality movie. The story kept me guessing until the very end and the acting was very very good as well. If you like movies that are horror mixed with mystery this is exactly what you get in this film.

Adam (Dylan Grunn) is getting married in a few days. For a "bachelor party" he goes hiking with the best man Gus (Grant Schumacher) in the Adirondacks during winter because no one gets married in June. A brief stay at Marty's cabin sets the mood with lore of the Wendigo and Ryan's special peyote laced tea. While sleeping in the woods Gus is attacked by said Wendigo and manages to stab it. Or did he imagine it and stabbed Adam? The film runs with two realities. One were Gus kills and eats Adam and another where everything is fine.

I liked how they presented the Wendigo both as real and imaginary. The film does drag too many times, but I liked the ending.

Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.

I enjoyed this movie, but it's because I already knew quite a bit about the wendigo urban legend and knew what to expect. If you have no idea about the legend then I'm afraid you'll probably find this to be a confusing mess, or at the worst, boring. I guess people might go into this thinking it's a monster movie but it's actually a slow psychological horror with themes of madness. It works as a good homage to the wendigo legend but I have rated down because the legend isn't well enough explained for newcomers. I thought it was a pretty neat serious psychological horror though.
