* UnfortunateImplications: The film has been criticized by some as being little more than an excuse to indulge in racist stereotypes of UsefulNotes/NativeAmericans, with the film's villains being a tribe of brutal, inbred, [[ImAHumanitarian cannibalistic]] cave-dwellers who kidnap and plan to mutilate a white woman to use her as breeding stock, while simultaneously trying to distance itself from said stereotypes by portraying the cave-dwellers as being shunned and avoided by the local Native American tribes. Piers Marchant of the ''Arkansas Democrat-Gazette'' was [[https://www.arkansasonline.com/news/2020/aug/07/blood-drugs-grief-mystery-and-murder/ especially critical]] of the film's portrayal of the cave-dwellers, calling it "the equivalent of having as villains [[GreedyJew a sect of Orthodox Jews]]."

Added DiffLines:

* SlowPacedBeginning: It takes roughly an hour for Sheriff Hunt and his posse to make their way out of Bright Hope, with all the time instead spent [[DevelopingDoomedCharacters introducing and developing the cast]]. Even the movie's [[SignatureScene most infamous scene]] mentioned above doesn't occur until the last forty minutes.

* FridgeHorror: The troglodyte women are doomed to slow deaths of hunger and thirst now that all the men are dead and have no one else to keep them alive. Although considering the horrific situation they're in, death may be a blessing.
