Amidst

A group of friends on a hunting trip in the Florida Everglades find themselves targeted by a relentless, unseen force. As they desperately try to escape the treacherous swamps, they uncover a dark and disturbing secret about the land and its history. The film blurs the lines between reality and hallucination as the friends' sanity erodes under the immense pressure.

Amidst received mixed to negative reviews from critics, with many pointing to its derivative plot and sluggish pacing. While some appreciated the attempt at atmospheric tension and the unsettling environment of the Everglades, the film struggled to stand out in the crowded found-footage horror genre. Audience reception was similarly lukewarm, with many finding it forgettable.

• Presents a familiar premise with little innovation.

• Suffers from pacing issues and a lack of genuine scares.

• The Everglades setting offers some atmospheric potential but is ultimately underutilized.
