Movie Review: In the Earth (2021)

the horror continues... 58 nights till Halloween!
.
tonight's feature: In the Earth (2021) on Hulu

SPOILERS(?): Imagine getting kidnapped deep in the woods by a lunatic who drugs you to keep you from trying to escape. Then imagine escaping with a few less toes only to run into the lunatic's scientist wife who is trying to communicate with the forest using science, but she can't so she uses an ancient dusty spellbook called "Hammer of the Witches" (new band name?).

Add all that together during a pandemic, along with a malevolent forest, the spirit of some old guy in a stone edifice, lots of loud scary music, a bunch of strobe lights set all over the place, a ghastly mist of mushroom spores, and you end up tripping balls. A lot of tripping balls. Trying to avoid getting murdered. That is more or less the premise of In the Earth, which gets a grisly 5 chopped off toes out of 10.
