This Italian horror initially looked like it might be going somewhere but quickly spirals out of control.
It tells the story of a soldier returning from Iraq who decides to clear his head by going to a stunning forest to cycle. There he runs into both trouble and romance in a tale that loses its footing early.
Though the idea behind the movie isn't terrible the execution is, the weak cast do not help matters and neither does the finale which defies logic.
Some movie endings can turn a bad film around, some can kill a great film outright. But when you have a film which is already pretty damn bad and end it with a twist which is beyond dumb it doesn't leave much of an impression.
This award winning Italian effort is truly pitiful and I'd recommend it to no man, woman nor bovine.
The Good:
Showed early promise
The Bad:
Beyond bad finale
Things I Learnt From This Movie:
Hunters who mourn the death of a pet are cherry picking idiots
So licking toads might actually be a thing
