Not very original, but, very powerful. At least, very powerful for a genre debut starring Kate Bosworth.
Final rating:½ - Had a lot that appealed to me, didnt quite work as a whole.

Finding your instincts to KILL on a remote Maine island
Three women around the age of 30 partake of a reunion vacation to a Maine island where they hanged out when they were girls and had a fort. Sarah (Kate Bosworth) masterminds the event with the hope of reconciling the estranged Abby (Katie Aselton) and Lou (Lake Bell). The camping trip starts well enough, but things go awry and it turns into a survival situation.
"Black Rock" (2012) is a life-or-death backwoods drama/adventure/horror in the tradition of Deliverance (1972), The Edge (1997), Nightmare at Bittercreek (1988) and Backcountry (2014). While it lacks the budget of the first two, its at least as good as the latter two.
These types of flicks are about being backe...
