Three
strangers are stranded in the middle of the woods with only one mysterious
shack as their only source of shelter. As they search desperately for supplies and food
to survive the elements, they wait/hope for someone who can rescue
them, but when they realize they are on their own and no one will rescue them,
they begin to learn about each other, they are more connected to each other
than they could imagine and they are there for a reason... And if they want to escape alive, what
they must do in Jack Heller’s thriller Enter
Nowhere (2011).
Three
strangers, a pregnant woman, a thief, and young man, all of them after their
cars broke down and stranded in the woods must work together to stay alive. Not trusting each other and stranded in the
middle of nowhere each one of them has a premonition of their
own demise, but what is even more scary is that they discover they are all from
different timelines and all related to each other, mother to child to
grandchild. Each of their tragic end
leads to the cause of other one's tragic end... the only way to break the
cycle of fate (and escape these woods) is to save their forbearer, a German
Nazi, from getting killed in a bomb raid.
This was not too bad of a movie for having less than 10 characters and shot in
HD with a RED ONE camera mostly in the middle of the woods with a 3
people, wooden shack and small bomb shelter, not bad for a low budget
film. What started as some sort of
survival horror turns into a time paradox cursed woods and with the only way to
escape is to change the past in order to save the futures. It's not Back
to the Future, but sill interesting. Too bad the HD makes this look
soft and blurry, but the Dolby Digital sound is not bad. Extras include behind the scenes and
trailers.
