Brody (Scoot McNairy, WRECKAGE) is less than pleased when his girlfriend Kerry (Anna Skellern, THE DESCENT: PART 2) invites her distant cousin Leo (Andrew Hawley, SNOW WHITE AND THE HUNTSMAN) - who she has never mentioned before - along on their camping trick in Dartmoor's Wistman's Wood and takes an instant disliking to him. While drinking at a pub, the locals tell the trio about the legend of a huntsman who hunts down sinners in the woods and hangs them. It turns out that Brody is already aware of this as he tells his two companions about a creepy encounter he had camping in the woods a few years ago. Brody's antisocial behavior and jealousy of Kerry's behavior with Leo ware on the group; however, just as it is obvious to us that Kerry and Leo are not (or are more than) cousins, Brody shows Leo video footage he shot of Leo sneaking into his house when he was supposed to be away from London). Leo, it turns out, also knows more about Brody than he discloses to Kerry (an incident involving an attack on a woman eight years ago that got him kicked out of UC Berkeley). Jealous Brody sets up a hidden camera in the tent and then disappears off into the night in anticipation of Kerry and Leo betraying him. The other two proceed to do so but manage to implode on their own (apparently Leo likes to bite), and Leo stalks off in search of Brody while Kerry stays behind. When neither man fail to return, Kerry goes in search of them (using the night vision function on Brody's camera) and sees nooses hanging from the trees. Has Brody snapped or is the huntsman prowling the woods?

Yet another found footage film where horribly unlikable people venture into the woods and never come back again; and we can be thankful in this case as these three deserve each other (they're not unbelievably stupid like deserving characters in other found footage movies set in the deep, dark woods, they're just awful people). The filmmakers try to innovate the formula by focusing more on the tension between the three characters, but none of them are remotely sympathetic and they pretty much all get what they deserve for attempting to manipulate each other. Despite a barrage of folksy music (on the car studio and performed in the pub), the Wistman's Wood legend of the huntsman is very thinly set up (and doesn't include mention of his accompanying hellhounds). None of the sudden shocks are scary, and the film gleans far more tension from the anticipation of seeing something as the cameras' strobes and night vision modes are used to prowl the woods in search of missing companions or to follow strange noises. McNairy had previously starred in MONSTERS (from the same producers of this film) while Skellern had already been caught between two possessive men in the horror film SIRENS (in addition to going through the stalk-and-kill paces in truly awful THE DESCENT: PART 2).
