This film was unrealistic about the phone in field still being alive. The film was also not scary and relied on cheap jump scares. I also hate films that have sacrifices endings like this one.

Watched this again for the first time since 2023 and still as bad. Starts off strong but gets really shit and boring tbh. Won’t be watching this ever again 😂
