Viewing Notes
I originally started to watch High Lane via Netflix Instant, but the terrible dubbing made me stop. Instead, I eventually got around to getting the DVD from Netflix instead.
The first half hour of the movie is actually very well done; great cinematography and good natural tension from the mountain climbing.
Where things go wrong is when the horror portion kicks in. From there on in it’s just generic and cliched, with little character development and no background to latch on to for why all of this is happening in the first place.
