"Something isn't right about this cabin."

This was right up my alley: time-slip genealogical horror like something out of The Twilight Zone. It's gloomy, claustrophobic, and will get you thinking about your future choices and the choices of your ancestors in the past.

It randomly appeared on Netflix Japan and I'm glad I decided to give it a try.

Scott Eastwood (son of Clint), Katherine Waterston (daughter of Sam) and Sara Paxton (who, to my knowledge is NOT the daughter of Bill) star in Jack Heller's impressive "Enter Nowhere" which manages to be both the most predictable movie ever made and the least predictable movie ever made. It's also quite an enjoyable and fun ride.

Essentially a cross between "The Cabin in the Woods" (though much better than that overrated film) and a "Lost"-style puzzle box, I saw most of the twists coming from a mile away but I still really, really enjoyed this movie nonetheless even though Paxton sports an unflattering "Lady Mullet" through most of the film.

Also the opening credits are simple awesomeness.....

6.5/10 The film is build on some very fundamental mystery-thriller concepts - three people, seemingly strangers, end up in a cabin in the woods in the middle of nowhere under unclear circumstances, and find themselves unable to leave.

The first part where we get acquainted with the characters and the mysterious surroundings is well paced and atmospheric, as is the middle part where the pieces of the puzzle start getting revealed. The acting is rather good as well.

What doesn't let the film become a real surprise is the last part, where we learn the purpose of the protagonists' presence in the woods. It's a little underwhelming, the fourth character seems a bit out of place, and the whole affair, especially the very ending, is rather cheesy.

A much better film than you might expect from a low budget thriller, it's entertaining but missing that one extra good idea that would make it a memorable exception.

Its rare that you stumble upon a very original movie nowadays. Mostly all we gets is remakes, reboots, rehashes, etc. I for one am tired of all the "RE's", so it was extremely refreshing to watching an excellent original thriller for once.

"Enter Nowhere" has you guessing from the very beginning. The further the movie progresses the more you want to know what the hell is going on. Me and my friends made many attempts at guessing what was going on with zero success. The film does a very good job staying unpredictable and extremely entertaining.

Overall this movie was just 100% great. The plot, characters, and most of the acting was excellent. The only negative thing I can say about this film is that Scott Eastwood's acting was fairly horrendous, he obviously doesn't take after his father.

Definitely check this one out, it is well worth the watch.

9/10
