Granted, I've seen better horror flicks in my day, but this is a solid outing. Morty, the life-sized wooden doll, redefines creepy. Throw him in a dark wooden setting, and you get some solid terror.
The plot centers around a student Richard, well played by Eddie Bowz, who invites some friends to a wooden cabin to analyze their fears as study for his thesis papers. While there, Richard must confront his own inner demons which become magnified when he sees his childhood toy Morty at the cabin.
Soon Morty begins to terrorize the group, using their darkest fears as a weapon.
The cast was solid. Bowz handles the lead quite well and genre oddball Darin Heames(Night of the Demons 2 & Dr. Giggles) shines as his best pal with questionable morals. Heather Medway, portraying Bowz' love interest was the best actress involved, outshining Ann Turkel.
I recommend this for people who like to be creeped out. Has a dark atmosphere and the use of the foley artists as Morty chases people was handled well also.
score 5/10
