Things to add to your emergency preparedness kit: flashlight, lighter, pillow to smother your horrified screams before you reach the empty, unfeeling sky. Directed by Patricia Rozema and based on the titular 1996 novel by Jean Hegland, Into the Forest stars Ellen Page and Evan Rachel Wood as two women living in a remote woodland home when North America experiences a total power outage. The two must survive in a new, harsh environment where resources and information are scarce. Things go … well, they don’t go great. Good thing they have that axe. Ugh, everyone should probably get an axe, too. Seems like a solid investment during the end times.
