Vivendi Visual Entertainment DVD
Back in 1940 the entire population of a small New Hampshire town abandoned their town and head up a trail into the mountains. A search party is sent out by the Army and they find some of the people frozen to dead. But others have been viciously slaughtered. Thanks to a cover up the legends about this town grow over the years and many myths pop up about it.
By 2008 the town has been repopulated but the woods the former residents disappeared into are still unmapped. Finally the coordinate for the start of the "YELLOWBRICKROAD" trail are declassified. So a small group of people set off on this trail to try to discover what caused the former residents of the town to abandoned their homes and head off into the woods.
The film while not horrible isn't that interesting. We get lots of scenes of people walking in the woods and arguing. It seems like most of the people are slowly losing their minds ,but there wasn't enough interesting stuff in the film to really keep my attention. I kept glancing at the clock on my DVD player to see how much longer the film had. That is never a good sign. Some of the acting is well done. But they aren't given enough good material to make an engaging film. The DVD has a commentary but I didn't bother listening to it. Mainly cause I didn't enjoy the film the first time watching it. Yellowbrickroad gets a D.
