Keeper

This is a slow moving folk horror movie so if you looking for fast paced action horror this isn't it. The highlight is the great acting from
the Liz character, the other 3 are ok but not great. I think the movie would of benefited from casting a better lead male. This is a very
unsettling eerie film that uses atmosphere, shadows and editing to great affect. The FX are great but I feel like the use of CG in some scenes
was unnecessary and actually hurts the movie a bit. It can be a bit confusing at the start but it all comes together in the end. I think it could
of used a little more story at the begging for character setup as well. It just starts at the cabin with a couple that's been together for a year
and is apparently very serious yet they seem very unsure of each other and uncomfortable. They are also very suspicious of everything right away and we aren't given any context as to why. These are relatively small things overall and still a great movie if you like folk horror. As for woke, this is really hard to say anything about without giving away major spoilers and I don't want to for a movie like this. I can see where the ending could be taken as a possible feminist statement and female victimhood and speaking against male dominance. Given nothing leading up to it is woke I don't think it's meant to be taken that way but I'm really not sure. I think this one could be taken on how you view it but I can't deny there seems to be something there. I'll give it a one woke since it's only at the very end and it's more subtle.
