Review of Tethered

Tethered (II) (2022)
7/10
If you like rising tension......
20 March 2022
A blind boy, his protective mother, and a goat named Millie, live in the backwoods of the Carolinas, fishing, trapping small animals and living off the land. But there is something ominous in those woods. What could possibly go wrong? Mother, former Baywatch babe Alexandra Paul teaches Solomon the rules of survival, before she disappears one night. Time passes, a strange hunter (Hank) happens upon the scene, seeking shelter for the night (what could possibly go wrong). Tension mounts as Hank finds the mother's journal and reads some of it to Solomon, until he comes upon a disturbing passage. Strange things are happening in the beckoning woods. What could possibly go wrong?

This is the first feature film for this talented group of North Carolina independent film makers (they have made some short films). They have produced a solid psychological thriller, using a combination of Hollywood and local talent, a good original (tension building) musical score and professional cinematography. Definitely worth the price of a ticket or a stream, and I cannot wait to see their next production.
