Unlike many low-budget horror films, SOFT FOR DIGGING relies on a low-key premise and unique film style instead of gore and clichés. Told in a series of increasingly strange and suspenseful chapters, with an absolute bare minimum of dialogue, the film tells the story of Virgil, a hermit who lives in the woods on the edge of civilization. While traveling through the forest one morning, he witnesses a murder, but then later discovers no evidence and an unbelieving police force. Frustrated, Virgil begins to have haunting dreams about the murder that seem to be leading him towards a horrific conclusion. [More]

Intriguing for the first half hour, Digging's gimmick unfortunately gets tiresome too quickly

...leaves a gruesome aftertaste à la The Ring...[however] its strengths lie elsewhere.
