A lot of times, when I’m looking for a movie to view, I will go to Rottentomatoes.com and use their DVD finder. You can pick a genre, percentage of freshness, decade, number of reviews, MPAA rating, etc. It’s a pretty thorough system, really (though not without flaws). And then I will wade laboriously through the choices, clicking, researching, and eventually adding way too many in my Netflix queue.
During the month of October, when I am looking for horror films, I usually set the bar fairly low. Horror is a widely disregarded genre after all, and often times fairly so.
It was during one of these searches I found “Wilderness Survival for Girls.” Sitting at 50% with only six reviews, there was no real meat to speak of. The starring actresses were all nobodies, even seven full years after the film’s release (2004). The directors had gone on to direct only documentaries, and the synopses all read like standard, “traumatized girls out for revenge” plots. Here are the Rottentomatoes and Netflix rundowns:

Wilderness Survival for Girls
★★★
“Just because we’re girls, why do we have to be afraid all the time?”
Three teenage girls, Ruth (Brox), Deborah (Henning) and Kate (Humiston) head off to the remote mountain cabin owned by Kate’s parents for a weekend away. Initially, it’s an overdose of teenage drama bullshit in various flavours, as they drink, smoke weed, talk about sex and so on. But their soap-opera idyll is interrupted by the unexpected return of Ed (Morrison), who has been squatting in the cabin. The girls capture him, using the gun he left behind, with the intent of taking him down the mountain to the police the next day. But as the night goes on, the tensions between the three young women begin to fracture their friendship. There’s also the question of Ed: is he the innocent drifter he claims to be, or is there a connection to a long-buried trauma in Kate’s history?
If you’re hoping for definitive answers to at least some of the questions asked by the film, you’re going to come away disappointed. Ed is almost a MacGuffin in human form.
