Purely Joyful Movie!

n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

I don't know why some movies have to be categorized in the horror section while they have absolutely nothing to do with horror. This is just a thriller about a schizophrenic guy that goes on a retreat with his wife and son and sees things that are not really happening. His paranoia drives him insane and that's about it. Okay it's a nice psychological thriller with good actors and nice views but it's certainly not an horror movie. Gustavo Salmeron puts down a good performance playing the paranoid husband. I don't regret watching this movie but it's also not that of a big deal. Just worth watching once and that's it.

The chess player Raúl (Gustavo Salmerón) invites his estranged wife Ana (Irene Visedo) and his son Nico (Ricardo Trenor) to travel with him during Christmas to an isolated cabin in a snowy mountain expecting to reconcile with her. On the arrival, Raúl asks the landlord someone to help to chop wood for the family and the helpful carpenter Samuel (Ariel Castro) comes to the house and cut the wood. When Raúl sees his wife giving attention of Samuel, he becomes jealous and his paranoid mind makes him believe that Ana is having a love affair with Samuel. On the Christmas Eve, Raúl invites Samuel to spend the night with his family. Soon Raúl discovers the truth about the Ana and Samuel and what happened during the Christmas dinner."La Senda" is an intriguing horror movie about a man with paranoid mind. Gustavo Salmerón has a great performance in the role of an unstable man that wants to rekindle his love and begin a new life with his wife that is separated of him, but that becomes paranoid entwining reality and paranoia. My vote is seven.Title (Brazil): "O Caminho do Mal" ("The Path of Evil")

The main protagonist of the film, very well acted by Gustavo Salmeron, is a husband who is trying to rekindle a marriage that for some reason has gone wrong. It is alluded to that he suffers from paranoia - or bouts of schizophrenia. The wife hesitates, but accepts an invitation to a snowy mountain resort, to amend the marriage - for a last chance.Beneath the calm veneer of Raul (the protagonist) the mentally unstable cracks begin showing as he begins being taunted by his weird-acting wife and their diabolic child. They begin mentally torturing him, and use a local Argentinian handyman / home-wrecker to stir up more jealousy and chaos. Or is this all in Raul's imagination? Raul (bless, him) goes on a discovery, to find out what is the truth, and what is his paranoia.Nice atmospheric film, great main actor, lots of snow and ice and Pyrenees mountains.
