The Hike (I) (2011)
4/10
YOU GOT TO KNOW WHEN TO GET OUT
3 August 2018
Warning: Spoilers
The film opens with people screaming and running around getting killed by an off screen slasher. After that brief teaser opening, 5 girls take off to go camping. Kate (Zara Phythian) is five days back from Afghanistan (guess how her training plays in this). The girls drive, then leave their convertible with the top down to go hike and camp several hours away. The girls are armed with shorts, boots, back packs, and military issue undergarments that can double as a swim suit. It isn't long before they meet some cute boys and become flirty.

If you were awake the first few minutes then you know where this goes.

This is a "me-too" woods slasher. It offers nothing new. The characters were not well established. Their personality was bland. It was killing for the sake of killing. No cannibals, inbreeding, or a sportsman club. Boring.

Parental Guide: F-bomb, rape, nudity (male and female)
