“Cabin Tales” (* out of four) was a bargain-basement horror cheapie about a group of friends (Ariel Celeste, Mia Knight, Andrew Kunkel, and others) who gather for a weekend getaway at a lake when strange occurrences start happening leading to a murder investigation and explorations as to what really happened. Writer/director/star/co-producer Justin Russell certainly gives his all but this is strictly amateur night in terms of storytelling and acting. Film is only 42 minutes long but still feels padded and thin.
