Horror Vault's take

Set against the bleak landscape of a small northern town, this Canadian horror draws on indigenous mythology to unleash something ancient and insatiable upon a community already fractured by loss. When a young environmental activist dies under suspicious circumstances, forces far older than modern law are set in motion. Two women — a park ranger and a police officer — must reach back into their traditional teachings to confront a creature that grows more dangerous with every kill. It is a rare horror film rooted in a specific cultural worldview, giving its monster genuine mythological weight.
