Schlitter: Evil in the Woods is a well made and tense genre movie that I recommend, and at only 70 minutes long it certainly doesn’t outstay its welcome.

Family reunions can be a bit stressful at the best of times, but I can assure you that none that you have sat through have ever been as nerve wracking as that experienced by the Davison family.

Yes the movie is ridiculous, especially when Orca display Mensa intelligence while destroying a small fishing village, but at no point does it ever get boring. It has characters that you care about, a fantastic action set piece never far away, AND a bloody big whale going on a crazed rampage…what more could you want!?

While the narrative is a simple sharks vs humans trapped underwater, AND hampered by the fact that most of the characters are unlikeable (I found myself cheering for the sharks on more than one occasion), it has enough going for it that I never once looked at how long was remaining…always a good sign.
