You won't be disappointed!

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

I don't usually rate movies but this one is 6 stars in watchability. Excellent and creepy. Lance is worth his weight in Hollywood. And I meant to use that catch word, Watchability. The plot did make me somewhat confuse at first. But the storyline never WAS boring. The tension was taut pulling the viewer in never letting go.You felt caught up in this family drama. Not just a spectator. You cared about the protagonists. You found a clear cut case of evil and good. You finally a story where the father loved his son and his son loved him back. The father was willing to give up all for his son and that is the heart of the story.

Had a little bigger expectations for this movie, which is were I went wrong. "It's in the Blood" started off bad, and ending in same fashion. There is not to much to this movie, its very confusing, not very good special effects, and very jumpy. Add all those up and what do you get? A waste of 3 million dollars. The acting was OK at best and that is not saying very much. A story about a guy and his dad lost in the woods after his dad badly hurts himself, when they realize they are not the only ones out there. That had me intrigued. Do not let it fool you, you will be wishing you were in the woods, not watching this movie. 3 out of 10 stars (very generously) -TV or don't bother

I can tell you one thing about this weird horror, you love it or hate it and I still don't know what to think about it. It do has a few creepy moments but it also got a lot of talking between father and son. I'm sure that once seeing it you will argue what it's all about. Who are those creature(s). What happened to the family?You have to watch very closely to get it all, it's full of flash backs but it also has moments of terror. Even the way that it was shot will leave some people wandering why it was shot that way. They used a lot of light and smoke in the wood to give some special(call it arty) shots. The best way to see this psychological horror is just by watching it and not knowing what's it all about. The acting is superb so on that part it works, it even got a graphic gore shot of a leg, it's all there but for some this flick will leave you with a few questions.Gore 1/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 3/5 Story 3/5 Comedy 0/5

Wow, how did this movie get so many positive reviews? It must have been friends and relatives of the movie makers to fool people into seeing it. Yes the acting is very good, especially from one of the most underrated actors of our time Lance Henriksen. But this is a slow, boring tedious movie that never explains anything. This father and son dual are being stalked in the woods by a creature that looks like a burnt humanoid thing, yet neither of the men is even remotely curious as to what it is that is trying to kill them. Then we get continuous flashbacks of a tragedy that happened to them years before that has NOTHING to do with what is happening to them now! One reviewer stated that it made her think. It made me think too. It made me think why did I just waste 80 minutes of my precious life watching a piece of crap that felt like it was 80 hours long! I mean it when I said the positive reviews have to be from people associated with the making of the film. No impartial person could actually like this super-boring snooze-fest.
