Rating: 4/5 -- [Fessenden] is much more into ambiguity and creating mood than he is for on screen thrills Full Review

Rating: 2/4 -- This film is only scary if you're afraid of artfully self-conscious, grainy cinematography.

...The core emotions are strong and solid, which serves WENDIGO well as it moves into the supernatural realm....For those in search of something different, WENDIGO is a genuinely bone-chilling tale...

A mostly intelligent, engrossing and psychologically resonant suspenser.

...Fessenden is a filmmaker with an uncanny gift for the creation of unsettling moods....This is a properly spooky film about the power of spirits to influence us whether we believe in them or not...

Rating: 5/5 -- Fessenden ... sets a chilling tone of anticipation that keeps you inching forward, a scene at a time, until you're on the edge of your seat.

Product Description:

The suggestive WENDIGO is the final installment in a trilogy of horror films from director Larry Fessenden (HABIT, NO TELLING). Beginning on a dark, snowy road in rural Connecticut, WENDIGO immediately slams into gear as a family of New York City visitors run over a deer and drive into a ditch. As George (Jake Weber), his wife Kim (Patricia Clarkson), and son Miles (Erik Per Sullivan) wait for a tow truck to rescue them, they cross paths with an unhinged hunter named Otis (John Speredakos) who finishes off the deer and begins terrorizing the family. Things take an unusual turn, though, after Miles meets a spectral Native American elder (Lloyd E. Oxendine) and learns the secrets of the hungering Wendigo spirit.

Balancing jittery camera work with placid landscapes, Fessenden creates a foreboding mood for WENDIGO from the opening scene and never lets up. The movie shifts between the firm character grounding of the family, the edgy terror of Otis, and the elusive spirit-world of the beastly Wendigo in a way that seems to draw clear lines for the audience, only to redraw them with hairpin plot-turns and unsettling visuals.
