Directed by Robert Rice. Written by Michael Hamilton-Wright. Starring John Carew, Morgan Kelly, Damon Runyan and James Wallis.
Plot: a treasure hunt in the mountains becomes a deadly game of survival.
Several people attend a treasure hunt for $25,000. It’s in the desolate mountains where it’s cold and deadly and they, of course, have no cell service. And because it’s such a formulaic movie, people start dying off one by one.
We are usually cautious of any “based on actual events” movie and this is the reason to be. It wasn’t very good at all. There’s several continuity errors, too. Simple ones like jacket/no jacket. And then worse ones like when the operator tells the chief that Kevin and Tiffany are missing and he acts like he doesn’t even know who they are, but then later on, when he’s notifying their parents, he knows their first names and they know his.
Also, what really sucked was the end. It was a “WTF” ending and we hated it. Can’t give this movie many points and can’t give it a recommendation.
I suppose I could list my favorite movies here, but instead I'll give you a strange glimpse into what makes me TaraRomero.
1. I love comic books. I'm particularly into anything X-Men related and everything Harley Quinn.
2. My celebrity crush is Chris Evans (AKA Captain America). He's even more political than I am and he's not afraid to show it, plus he's really, really hot.
3. I love baseball and more importantly the Boston Red Sox, even though I've never even been to Boston. LOL
4. If I won the lottery tomorrow, after paying off my debts, I'd buy a smallish house somewhere in Southern California. I have got to get out of Texas.
5. My cartoon hero is Tina Belcher. Her and I share a soul.
6. I've been rescuing dogs since I was a teenager and firmly believe that fur babies belong inside and on the furniture.
7. I'm very much addicted to Hallmark Channel. I love their sappy movies, especially the Christmas ones.
8. I have 2 tattoos. An "E" on my ankle for my first lost fur baby. And a ladybug on my wrist named George after George Romero told me he liked it. May he RIP.
9. I'm a bit of a night owl. Not that I go out a lot, it's just that I prefer to be up at night and asleep during the day. I'm a vampire like that.
10. I have an unhealthy relationship with potato chips. My favorite are Herr's Sour Cream & Onion.
