A fed-up woman (really don’t blame her on that) and her hard-partying little sister get lost in the middle of the English countryside trying to get to the airport after some bachelorette party revelries. Night quickly approaches and the sisters end up stranded in a patch of woods some ancient creature calls home. Makenna Guyler (The Barge People) and Mari Beaseley are convincing siblings and Guyler is an extremely capable actress, which is good because we spend most of the runtime with her as she figures out just how dire a situation she’s fallen into. Unfortunately it takes more than 50 minutes to get to any creature action (barely glimpsed but pretty damn effective) in a flick that runs just over 70. There’s an air of familiarity dragging things down as well. Still, we get a solid lead and a cool looking critter... just wish they were given a stronger film to be showcased in.
