Nobody Sleeps in the Woods Tonight (2020)

 A group of teens addicted to technology are sent to a camp where they must turn in their electronic devices and spend their time in nature.  They are put in small groups and one group heads off into the woods on a three day hike.

After finding a deer carcass, the group is nervous that there may be a predator around. But the counselor says no worries and they’ll set up camp for the night. This is unfortunate since there is someone in the woods who means to do them harm.

When one of the kids disappears and they figure out there is a problem, they split up.  A couple of the kids stay at the camp and the others go for help.  Since it’s a horror film, you know it’s likely that wherever they go for help, may be the source of the problem.

There is a small town nearby with a police force of three, one of whom is a rookie who wants to wait for reinforcement when there is trouble. Holy cow man, you’re the police and you’re supposed to help people, not hide.

This is a Polish slasher. The mutant twin make up is gross. It was good enough to make me watch the sequel. Also not sure if I’ve seen another Polish horror film and I’m always curious about foreign horror.
