Review of Toad Road (2013) by Al M — 05 Feb 2014

A truly bizarre indie horror film, Toad Road blends elements of stoner film together with horror to create an unsettlingly ambiguous and intriguing film. The movie follows a young woman who begins experimenting with hallucinatory drugs with her friends and soon becomes obsessed with the local legend of Toad Road, a supposed gateway to Hell in the woods.

As their drug trips begin to blend with explorations into the woods and caves in the area, Toad Road starts to mix the surrealistic, the hallucinatory, and supernatural into a heady, disturbing, and ambiguous cocktail that leaves the viewer guessing until the end.
