Desolation (2017)

Desolation: Directed by Sam Patton. With Toby Nichols, Jaimi Paige, Alyshia Ochse, Claude Duhamel. A mother takes her son and her best friend on a trip into remote wilderness to scatter his father’s ashes; they must confront their fears when a lone hiker begins following them.

“The script is so one layered and even the conversations if you listen, donu0026#39;t actually make sense between the characters and it sounds like theyu0026#39;re reading right off a page. The setting is very cool, and the actor playing the son is the most likable in the script. But it felt like the Director just filmed straight from the page and didnu0026#39;t give a hoot about making it natural.”
