Critics Consensus

An uneasy '80s-set blend of comedy and horror, She Came from the Woods is just fast-paced and inventive enough to recommend.

3/5

Much like a campfire tale tailor-made to terrify impressionable listeners, this has a streak of self-referentiality that makes it feel ludic as well as lurid.

It's the story that lets the movie down.

3/5

While it may be a little rough around the edges, it is a unique spin on the classic summer camp horror that carves out a new direction for itself with fresh appeal for a modern audience.

She Came From The Woods has some thoroughly entertaining moments which include a hoard of homicidal possessed children, as well as the levels of gore employed which appear to be a love letter to practical effects maestro Tom Savini.

She Came from the Woods doesn’t reinvent the blood-soaked horror wheel, then, but while it rehashes old ground, the frenetic pace, effective ensemble ripe for the picking off and combustible carnage make for a fun watch.

She Came from the Woods is the perfect summer horror flick, bringing back those feelings of warm summer nights and murderous destruction that we got from watching the likes of Sleepaway Camp and The Burning.

This movie was awful! We went out for Valentine's day and this seemed to be the only decent movie, from the previews.. We left the movie early.. we never do that, especially since we paid 30 to see it! Not worth your money. We tried waiting through the whole movie thinking it would get better, maybe it was just a slow movie but it just never got good.

What starts out great and promising gradually loses its mojo and ends up being more like a shell of something they could be good. Squanders its quality filmmaking and acting to just…dissipate into forgetfulness.

Weak in the ending, a little muddled in the concepts, but if you like slashers it’ll scratch that itch
