An online outdoorsman (Dillon Brown) is looking for content to finish out the second season of his show by hunting a possible maneater mountain lion in the Nevada back-country. He finds a cell phone belonging to one of a missing pair of anthropologists and switches focus from hunting to search-and-rescue, but finds more than he expected.
This is going to be spoiler-y by nature so stop now if you have any interest in seeing this movie, which you shouldn't because it sucks, stop now. It's filled with shaky cam, boring pointless rambling, stilted dialogue, and flashing lights. Also, I am actually begging writer/director/"star" Dillon Brown to learn the difference between a red light filter, which is used to preserve night vision in low-light, and infrared, which can't be seen by the naked eye.
I was actually searching for a movie called The Burning Moon and couldn't find it so I just picked the first movie from the horror category on LookMovie.to. I was going to veto based on the poster (a different one than the one here) because it looked vaguely racist, but then I read the synopsis and thought "oh, it's a Bigfoot movie." I haven't done one of those and I love a good cryptid story, but it's not a Bigfoot movie. It's way dumber. **SPOILERS FOLLOW** It's a Neanderthal movie. As in, somehow in 2026 an actual prehistoric man is killing and eating people in an abandoned mineshaft in Nevada. Zero explanation given for how this came to be. Is this like an Encino Man kind of situation where he was frozen or petrified and came back to life? Or more old-school Land of the Lost? Either way, extremely stupid. And worse yet, I have reviewed Neanderthal horror so it's not even novel. **END SPOILERS**
