Wendigo Ratings & Reviews

Spencer MBOctober 10, 2025
*Watched the 4K Dolby Vision HDR remaster I agree with everyone else in saying this film is very well crafted on a technical level. My 2 big complaints is that it felt like nothing happened, and the “wendigo” was barely a presence. Yes, it does fully appear and maim Otis & freak out the kid by looming over the father but that’s it. I couldn’t figure out how the wendigo myth played into the father-hunter conflict’s dynamic at all. I guess maybe Otis/the hunter’s constant pursuit of vengeance is like the wendigo’s infinite hunger? I guess I was expecting what everything else does and make the cannibalism element of the wendigo myth to be the main conflict. I guess I must have missed something because, unless the kid taking the small totem was the catalyst, I have no clue why the wendigo was even appearing based on the myth.
