A group of filmmakers are intrigued by the story of a dogman attack in rural Michigan. After speaking to the young woman who supposedly managed to escape the hairy and clawed clutches of a beast (her boyfriend was not so fortunate), the quartet head out to Cross Village to uncover the truth… this is their footage. Built around the recording of the young couple before tragedy struck and interviews with the few people willing to talk a year on after the occurrence, the film starts strong and lays the groundwork for an interesting found footage piece. There’s ties to a local family and a conspiracy that may be in the works when it comes to dark Michigan secrets and that violent man-dog roaming the woods. The quartet ramble as they meander through the woods and the usual bickering makes the short runtime feel even longer than it is. Not much happens between the mildly interesting opening and climax that’s at least a little spicier than it could have been but still doesn’t feel all that worth it. Still, it did try to put a little more meat on the bone.
