Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.

Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

midnighttimothy This was an all around enjoyable movie to watch. Many of the other reviews say that the film was slow to get to the action and suspense. While this is somewhat true, the beginning allows you to get to know the characters a bit and have a connection with them before anything scary happens. The action and suspense scenes were well written and the acting was excellent throughout the entire film. The special effects were also very good for being a lower budget movie. I would highly recommend this move to anyone who enjoys creature horror/thriller movies.

keitharmstrong-17620 For a low budget, Indigenous works out really well. The movie moved along at a nice pace, the characters were all very natural, and could act their parts with conviction (something usually lacking in low budget films).The plot was quite good, based around the idea of a group of young tourists a bit bored with the standard fare on offer at the beach resort. They are told of a wonderful waterfall, deep in the jungle, but are also warned about the danger lurking there... blood thirsty beasts, the Chupacabra.Yes, young folks make stupid choices all the time, nevermind how many warnings about the risks. So off this group go to find the find of their lives, an isolated and idyllic waterfall deep in the jungle.The action begins not long after reaching the waterfall & pool. When night falls, character by character are in grave danger of being picked off by the Chupacabra. These actual creatures looked really good too. Plus the blood & gore was realistic. As this type of movie goes, I'd say it's well worth a watch.

quincytheodore Indigenous offers the well-known concept of lost tourists on an exotic location where they meet hostile entity. It highly resembles other fiction movies or even miniseries from Discovery channel. To its credit, it gives nice visual of the setting and there is effort to produce horror, but ultimately it is a straightforward and tired endeavor.The story might work to its advantage as audience gets exactly what they expect. There's little diversity here, even in recent year there are several movies with same theme. A few college kids take vacation in a beautiful place, and then they are inexplicably going to ominous site even though there are plenty of visible warnings.Visual is pretty good, the use of location is commendable, although when the encounter happens during nighttime, it reverts to jittery cam. The movie is shot mostly on third person, so it shouldn't encounter this issue like many mockumentary movies. Fortunately, the practical effect works well and it doesn't shy away from displaying the monster instead of maintaining blurry shots.Script does what it needs to, though surprisingly the actors perform admirably. They mostly look genuine, either through occasionally adequate presentation of the horror or the acting itself. In latter half, the movie opts for different gimmick and tries to broaden the scale, a decent effort but not entirely novel.Indigenous is exactly one would expect from lost tourist horror theme, it's far from innovative, but it might just be sufficient in the small scope.

william_morris I will admit, I only got half an hour into the film before I had to turn it off and find something else to watch. While the photography is beautiful - the company obviously had a good DP, the cast of characters is entirely unsympathetic and filled with the entire inventory of Film School 101 clichéd, mail-order characters: the charismatic couple with the saccharine, please-get-a-room constant kissy-facing; the pathetic, downtrodden loser hoping to make it big; the unattached but beautiful female friend who serves no real plot purpose; and the drunken, foul- mouthed jerk. The plot is not new: friends go for a coming-of-age, last-gasp vacation and die horribly. With a soundtrack alternating between inaudible dialog and ear-splitting music, and no one whose fate is worth caring about, it's simply un-watchable.
