This movie was written as if by a group of five writers where each wrote a line in turn and after an hour was told they had to wrap it up in ten minutes.
There are so many questions I have. What was the point of the woman magazine writer in this movie. Similarly, what did the male writer really add to this story? To simply add to the confusion of the two women's original plan? This could have been developed so much better differently. If Beth was so hell bent on killing bystanders indiscriminately, why did she keep the journalist around as long as she did? It was story line that was decided by the writer to ultimately not develop.
At one point there was emphasis on how the two girls met. Nope big nothingburger. As if this was a separate story line that was scrapped, but the beginning of the story left in this film.
The journalist asks Beth at one point, Q. "Did he hurt you?" A. "Oh yeah, you could say that." But he never did, turns out she was an outsider. Once again, as if this was a separate story line that was scrapped but this part was left in the script.
What was the point of the hunter?
If the makers of this movie wanted to develop a revenge movie, why did they have all of the extraneous characters get killed off (hikers, hunter, writer) and yet, the porn actor driver that you develop a distaste for in the first ten minutes of the film, get killed immediately with little to no fanfare or development.
Finally, on a production level, didn't the shaky-cam die its rightful death sometime around 2000?
This movie sucked.
