The thriller Wilderness Survival for Girls concerns a trio of high school girls who end up keeping a stranger captive in the woods. ~ Perry Seibert, Rovi
Like many a horror movie, the unfolding drama has moments that test credulity. Yet writer-directors Eli Despres and Kim Roberts' teasing of genres and handling of actors also hints at psychologically insightful films to come.
You won't jump out of your seat or grab your neighbor on this one. But you're likely to leave mildly intrigued, with a little something to think about.
This 2004 debut feature by husband-and-wife team Kim Roberts and Eli Despres is pretty involving, though they strain to develop the girls' relationship problems amid all the suspense, and the plot grows increasingly unlikely.
Credit is definitely due to writer/directors Kim Roberts and Eli Despres for trying to come up with something a little brainier than "three chicks get killed in a cabin."
I think I just love movies too much. Every movie that gets below average rating I end up loving.
Wilderness Survival for Girls is about 3 girls who go on a trip to a cabin in the middle of nowhere. Now, I'm sure you think you know where this is going, but this isn't a teen scream slasher movie.
This is more of a
thriller and you won't know how it will end until it does. It is very suspenseful and even a little scary. It will have you thinking even after the movie ends.
The plot is good and the characters are some what interesting, you don't really get to know who they are but you get a good feel for their personalities.
For a low budget film the acting and camerawork are excellent. Some of the best I've seen in an independent film.
Acting: 8/10
Story: 7/10
Originality: 7/10
Soundtrack: 4/10

(The following is my Review for the fappers 18+):
Fapping to this movie can be done but it might be a little hard (no pun intended). All the girls are fairly good looking and early on you get some nice nude tits and some good ass and bra shots. Later on there's some lesbian kissing, but that's about it. SPOILER ALERT: If you're kinky there is some slight bondage later on and some crying.
Fap Rating: 4/10

not quite what I was expecting, but a pretty decent film on how things can get out of hand and how mass hysteria/vigilantism play out.
