The Ranger
Directed by Jenn Wexler
After a run-in with the cops at a punk show goes sideways, Chelsea and her pals flee the city in search of a place to lay low. Running to the security of Chelsea’s old, abandoned family cabin in the woods, they fall under the watchful eye of an overzealous park ranger who holds a secret from Chelsea’s past. Set to the beat of a killer punk soundtrack (Fang, The Avengers, The Grim, Rotten UK and more) and presented in eye-popping neon colors, Jenn Wexler’s debut offers a modern take on survivalist horror that both celebrates and subverts the genre’s tropes with equal parts humor, glitter and gore. A SHUDDER ORIGINAL. Contains strong language, violence and gore.
Teen punks on the run face off against an unhinged park ranger with an axe to grind.
Cast: Chloë Levine, Granit Lahu, Bubba Weiler, Jeremy Pope, Amanda Grace Benitez

Randomly put this on, it’s awesome! Goth, gay very diverse 😻 f****** Great, unusual and eeeky ! 👻
the villain was poorly cast and/or written, and there wasn't enough tension. not the worst thing, but largely boring
Not sure what people were expecting with this one to give it such a low rating. While I do wish it had a bit more humor, and the plot was spotty (I honestly wasn't expecting much of a plot. So I can't dock it too much on that note.), this movie is pretty much everything that could be expected. and I thought it was an enjoyable little slasher.
Pretty fun. A little blah.
I dig it. Claybob says check it out.
