Synopsis:

In 1948, a fire occurred in the woods at North Point. Then, almost 40 years later, an old couple get killed by a mysterious thing in the same woods! Holy crap!

A group of six friends later go on a camping trip in the North Point woods. They meet up with Mark, the local ranger. After having some fun, the six start slowly getting killed off by whatever is roaming around the woods. Mark later learns of a horrible accident that occurred during the fire of '48, that may have some significance with the recent disappearances. Will Mark be able to save the kids? Watch and see!

Also, is it inhuman? Does it have an axe? Well, no and no, but oh well, close enough...

Are the frogs and crickets using megaphones?
You might need to get that heartbeat checked out...
The axe was dripping...but not with blood?
March of the centipede!
Hardy's canned relief.
Babbling brook....no. Screaming brook, yes.
Helicopter ants?
Awesome, banjo music video time!

I'm sure Bambi appreciates the stupid joke.
What's with the fake eyes scene?
Ahhh, crotch shot! Twice in one minute!
So when did vultures sound like crows?

Best Lines

Gale - "I think I'm getting a blister on my blister."

Skip - "I'll give it an eye with a bullet."

Greg - "The doodad is his belt and the watchamacallit is his dagger."

Joel - "He said, "Woooooo!"

Greg - "Matches, gotta find the stinkin' matches."

Skip - "Oleeoleehomefreeall!"

Joel - "I won't hurt myself I promise."

Bobbie - "Relax, there's nobody here but us chickens."

Joel - "Wow, that first step is a mother."

Final Verdict
Pretty risky...careful of the stupid nature scenes, and the ranger's horrible, horrible jokes. Tends to hurt the brain a bit.
