Do you know what is terrifying about the wendigo for example? the fact that it's either a human turned monster while maintaining most of its human features, or a human gone possessed. This... this thing is just a bad example of what people tend to think we found scary back in our cave dwelling days. Nobody would fear corpses if they weren't biohazardous and this is what most people don't seem to grasp. The fear isnt of this "think, deathly looking being with claws and teeth", the fear comes from "whatever is in this corpse is going to kill me like it did this one dude I knew"

Now, with it attempting to look "above human" in it's abilities, it simply fails. You want it to look like an intellegent superior-to-humans sadistic being, don't make it resort to Jeff Dahmer tactics of "I'mma murder then rape the corpse hehehehe" Should've made this thing fuck with the psyches of the characters (and in doing so, make us actually look at him as a threat). Also this thing is as smart as a fucking shoe lace. If it can find whoever whenever, why not avoid cameras? Deux Ex Machina, a tad bit.

The first one felt like its supposed to be suspensful, but the suspence wasn't even there, this one tries to be more "edgy"? I don't even know...
