A simple horror film, mixed with mystery elements. Shoulberg aims for atmosphere, so don't expect too much in the way of scares or gore, because you won't find it here. Instead, you get lush locations, moody lighting and a mystery that slowly unravels itself. All you need for a fun little horror film. Erica is a washed up documentary maker who gets a new assignment from a peculiar woman. She wants Erica to make a portrait of her dying father. When Erica travels to his birth town, she discovers that he was a vile man who was feared by everyone in the community. But there is more than meets the eye. Apart from the superb location, there are no real stand-out elements. The cinematography is solid, the score is appropriate, the story simple but effective. The editing is the only thing that stands out, but not so much as to define the film. So Cold the River offers nothing original, but executes the familiar very well. Good filler.Read all
