“Secrets In The Woods” (*1/2 out of four) was a lackluster thriller about a young woman (Brittany Underwood) who goes along with her boyfriend (Taylor Frey) for a romantic getaway to his cabin in the woods where he was raised but soon meets his nutjob father (Jim Klock) and realizes she is trapped and is unable to escape. Plodding and predictable thriller covers all the usual backwoods thriller cliches (loony gas-station owners, prowling rednecks, etc.) without much craft or style although Klock is amusing as the father. Maybe it’s about time they made a movie about going to the middle of the woods and the characters live happily ever after!
