Survival In The Wild In Backcountry Trailer

Here is an upcoming thriller that could perhaps turn out to be somewhat of a sleeper movie.

Directed by Adam MacDonald, ‘Backcountry’ tells the story of  “An urban couple go camping in the woods and find themselves lost in the territory of a predatory black bear.”  Kind of gives you memories of ‘The Edge’ where Anthony Hopkins and Alec Baldwin were in a similar situation.  Check out the synopsis and trailer.

An urban couple go camping in the Canadian wilderness – where unimaginable beauty sits alongside our most primal fears. Alex (Jeff Roop) is a seasoned outdoorsman while Jenn (Missy Peregrym), a corporate lawyer, is not. After much convincing, and against her better judgment, she agrees to let him take her deep into a Provincial Park to one of his favorite spots – the secluded Blackfoot Trail. On their first night, deep in the forest, they have an unsettling encounter with Brad (Eric Balfour), a strange alpha male with eyes for Jenn who may or may not be following them. Alex’s desire to quickly reach Blackfoot Trail only intensifies. They push further and further into the woods, Alex stubbornly insisting that he remembers the way. After three days their path disappears; they are hopelessly lost. Without food or water, they struggle to find their way back, the harsh conditions bringing out the best and worst in them, pushing their already fragile relationship to the breaking point.

Expect a March 20th release date for this one.  Thanks to: Mucho Macho
