56/100 A new park ranger, who's previously lost

56/100 A new park ranger, who's previously lost her daughter in the forests, runs into a good deal of strangeness during her tour in the wilderness. I can easily see the low ratings on this but I liked it. It's a very slow burn but the main character held my attention with genuine concern. No outright scares but it does retain a certain level of cosmic dread which I found rather unnerving but intriguing. Eventually it drifts into a dreamscape that is both perplexing and haunting in equal measure. And that ending, which makes perfect sense in context, is really dark. Worth watching. -- DrNostromo.com

A fever dream in the wilderness

In 2023's "Lovely, Dark, and Deep" we are introduced to Lennon, a new back country ranger who is traveling through the wilderness hoping to uncover something from her past. The movie has some great shots of nature and there's a mystical feeling about the woods she is patrolling. She also meets another ranger and a lost woman in the woods. But for some reason the other Rangers don't seem to be pleased about her finding that woman and tell her to go home. The movie is much more complex and sadly that gets confusing quite fast. It felt like a fever dream with lots of unsettling noises and unique shots. The end result felt a little unfinished and the movie leaves too many unanswered questions. It's an overall decent watch but definitely won't suit everybody. [4,9/10]

Great premise, disappointing turn

This movie seemed really promising initially. A Ranger getting wrapped up in a missing person's case with her own missing loved one in her past? Sign me up.

But it didn't go that route. Without spoiling too much, it decided to go a trippy, metaphorical route without establishing enough about this character and her own memories. It was just a scape of meaningless hallucinations for most of the movie. That kind of thing only works if there's a reality check often enough that we get scared questioning what's real and what's not. Instead, I was wondering when the unreal stuff was going to finally end.

The ending was incredibly disappointing and overall mid. If you ask me, not worth the runtime. Watch The Ritual instead if you want spooky woods with a paranormal twist about grief.
