OK story line that moves horribly slow. The "twist" ending was obvious from the beginning scenes when they arrive at the campground and the interaction with the ranger. If you're really bored, it's worth the watch.

CAPPS CROSSING is a very typical, nondescript kind of indie horror flick that plays out with the usual slasher-in-the-woods monotony. The opening segment is the best part and a little different from the usual, but before long we're in the usual area of endless padding and boring characters doing boring things. The only thing this has going for it is that it's been made with a little more budget and style than usual for this genre.

This is a camping slasher film and we know David (Brian Cory) is the killer from scene one and then a year later in scene two where we also see the camera man's shadow. Very amateur mistake. Three couples go camping and geocaching in this same area and they meet David a seemingly nice guy who had a thing for Tracey (Sarah Leo) in a flashback that didn't work out. Now why he feels he must slice people, I didn't get the connection.There is minor drama within the group that was not well written or performed. Ashley Sullivan is awfully cute but can't seem to make one line convincing. The sound track bored me as much as geocaching. The location is a real setting in California. The Mormon Emigrant Trail is famous to hikers. It is the path taken by Mormons who left Sutter's Ranch and went back home to Utah after the Gold Rush. While interesting, it didn't make the film or geocaching any more exciting. The killer was wimpy. I am not sure how he never got overpowered. Twist ending, if you make it that far.Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.

If you grew up watching Friday the 13th, Phantasm, Elm St. and other early John Carpenter films then you have to see "Capps Crossing"! It's a great indie film with a cast that has enough character to make you care when the killer slowly picks them off one at a time. Brian Cory does a thoroughly convincing job of playing a loner psycho as terrorizes a group of campers stuck stranded in the wood for the weekend. Lots of good gore and creative writing!
