Full Plot Details

George is a high-strung professional photographer who is starting to unravel from the stress of his work with a Manhattan advertising agency. Needing some time away from the city, George, his wife Kim, and their son Miles head to upstate New York to take in the winter sights, though the drive up is hardly relaxing for any of them. George accidentally hits and severely injures a deer that ran onto the icy road; after George stops to inspect the damage, he's confronted by an angry local named Otis who flies into a rage, telling George that he and his fellow hunters had been tracking the deer for some time. An argument breaks out, which leaves George feeling deeply shaken. When George and Kim arrive at their cabin, they discover that it's next door to Otis' property, and they soon find that a dark and intimidating presence seems to have taken over the cottage. Since, when they stopped at a store en route to the cabin, a shopkeeper told Miles about the legend of the Wendigo, a beast from Indian folklore who is half-man, half-deer, and can change itself at will, the child begins to wonder if the creature might have something to do with his family's sudden misfortune.

Movie Reviews

Film Freak Central - 10/10 by Walter Chaw(Wendigo is) why we go to the cinema: to be fed through the eye, the heart, the mind.
Film Journal International - 9/10 by Erica Abeel[Fessenden] weaves a creepy spell by crafting a kaleidoscope of puppetry, sounds and cinema legerdemain.
PopMatters - 9/10 by Jocelyn Szczepaniak-GilleceAccording to Wendigo, 'nature' loves the members of the upper class almost as much as they love themselves.
Reeling Reviews - 9/10 by Robin Clifford...combines elements of other creepy flicks but succeeds in coming up with an original, eerie film in its own right
Chicago Tribune - 9/10 by Michael WilmingtonFessenden cooks up a likably offbeat horror movie. But somehow, it never jells, never really scares us.
Film Blather - 8/10 by Eugene NovikovA dizzying digital video oddyssey through the snowy woods of upstate New York.
New York Times - 8/10 by Dave KehrFor those in search of something different, Wendigo is a genuinely bone-chilling tale.
Movie Boeuf - 8/10 by David N. ButterworthDirector Fessenden's inventive camerawork, staccato editing, and creative use of sound make "Wendigo" a creepy, entertaining ride.
Los Angeles Times - 8/10 by Kenneth TuranThough Wendigo has weak spots, including an ending that is not as satisfying as it might be, the film remains memorable despite its flaws. This is a properly spooky film about the power of spirits to influence us whether we believe in them or not.
Boston Globe - 8/10 by Jay CarrThis film is only scary if you're afraid of artfully self-conscious, grainy cinematography.
