Woke up this morning to see another James Franco movie on Netflix. This one is actually directed by him and he also comes out in a minor serious role towards the end. I went in with low expectations because of what I heard. This was shown as a secret screening at Fantastic Fest in 2013. People were disappointed with it. It is based on a Cormac McCarthy novel (author of No Country for Old Men). This movie reminded me a lot of the Coen Brothers. Could have fooled me. Anyways, I didn't like it. So, I agree with those that were disappointed. It sucked. It's a crazy drama about this one guy who lives in the woods by himself. He does a lot of crazy shit including necrophilia. That part reminded me of Lars and the Real Girl mixed with Deadgirl. Anyways, it gets annoying and tiring in the third act. I just felt like I wasted my morning on this. I should have had pancakes. Yeah, pancakes! Pancakes! Cabin Fever rules. Stay away from this one.
I haven't read the novel it's based from but I didn't really care about this redneck guy. Downer in a bad way.
