Like swigging last night's Vernor's the next morning, it's not really new or fresh, but it's still pretty sweet. While the treatment is pretty traditional, the subject (a horror film set in the U.P. -- Michigan's Upper Peninsula) is original enough for this Michigander. Especially after visiting it last month and seeing some pretty far out shit.

The movie likes to acknowledge cliches and thinks that that makes it clever to still follow them, but it really doesn't earn that in any way.

It's basically what I expected as a campy movie. I had a good time with it.
