Review of The Dyatlov Pass Incident (2013) by Alain G — 17 Jan 2014

I was pleasantly surprised by this movie. At first it's pretty much Blair Witch reincarnate with the film team and female lead making stubborn and stupid decisions however that didn't last. While pretty average for the most part there were moments of brilliance that impressed me- like discovering what the "orange lights" actually were.

You would absolutely NEVER guess the ending unless you read a spoiler- which also impressed me. Even though the end bombards you with all of these crazy elements, reveals and conspiracies from all directions at a pace where you can't absorb one idea before you are smacked with another and I would have liked to see some of it explored a little further I can't fault it because the ideas were pretty darn original with a clever WTF wrap up.

. Definitely worth watching at least once.
