Really awful in every regard: acting, setting, pacing

Really awful in every regard: acting, setting, pacing, intensity, horror/gore. Nothing. And at times, at least early, absolutely hilarious with the dialogue and bad dubbing work. I did watch this very late so I did get a little tired towards the end, but still this is quintessential good-bad territory. **1.0/5**

**_Possibly the worst Friday the 13th knockoff of the 80s_** Hikers in northern Utah find themselves the prey of a psycho outcast living in the wilderness. "Don’t Go in the Woods” (1981) is a low-budget slasher in the tradition of “Friday the 13th” (1980). It’s similar to the future "The Final Terror" (1983) and "Berserker” (1987), but those are masterpieces by comparison; so is “Blood Hook” (1986). Everything is here for a competent slasher, but the creators forgot to include a story with fleshed out characters. As such, the proceedings come across as random gory killings in the wilds (with glaringly fake blood) attached to a dull “story.” It doesn’t help that the “mad” antagonist is too cartoonish to provoke fear. Some other issues off the top of my head: There’s a rotund Sheriff who could hardly walk a city block on paved sidewalk, let along hike rough trails in the Rockies. Meanwhile the two main female characters are plain Janes so the creators throw in one attractive brunette in the opening snippet, plus a curious cameo of an alluring redhead skater. Then there’s the oddball humor, like the guy in a wheelchair who gets decapitated. Unless you need to see every 80’s slasher or if you’re interested in quality forest cinematography and thrills à la "Open Season" (1974), give it a pass. The film runs 1 hour, 22 minutes, and was shot in Utah, southeast or east of Salt Lake City in Provo (falls), Heber City, Brighton and Park City. GRADE: D+/C-

Scenic

Obviously inspired by slasher classics like Friday the 13th, this low-budget slasher flick has a murderous mountain man hunting down a bevy of hikers and campers in the Utah woods and mountains. No scares per se, but some pretty decent killings including one comic relief beheading of a man in a wheelchair (reminiscent of the wheelchair guy in Texas Chainsaw Massacre). The mountain man does not appear on camera until the second half, which is a good thing as he does not exactly inspire much fear. Good POV shots as he stumbles through the woods and decent camera work throughout keep the thing afloat. I do believe this has put more than one young person off of camping, much the way Jaws gave my sister in law the creeps every time she got into the shower. Mostly amateur actors and a lousy music score cost it one point in my book.
