So someone asked me post my thoughts about this movie. It's one I picked up in a Goodwill haul.
Overall, it was pretty good. (6/10)
As a psychological thriller, it worked really well. The basic plot is a fairly common one among horror/thrillers: a family/group move into a house that belonged to another family, and one of the family members goes coocoo for Coco-Puffs.
The Wendigo itself was really more of an afterthought. And I don't think it really existed. It was just an old story that came up and messed with Otis's mind over his guilt for shooting George.
So basically, if you're looking for a horror movie, that's not what you will find.
But as I said, if looking for a psychological thriller, this would be a good watch.
