I had heard of this film a while back but then it just disappeared. Website was taken down and no mention of it on imdb. Well now it has resurfaced.
I find this very appealing in a couple ways. First off. Jewel Staite. Her character doesn’t appear to be as adorable and infectious as her role on Firefly, but she is still a beautiful girl.
Secondly, despite being standard “group of people in an isolated place get hunted down by killers” plot, this does look interesting. Yeah, its been done to death but it has a little bit of a Lost feel to it. Mysterious things in the jungle threaten the lives of stranded castaways dealing with their own interpersonal stuff.
Might just be standard fare horror film crap, but it might be good anyways.
EDIT: It appears this is the movie trailer for a film that will never be.
IMDB lists a new film called “The Lost Tribe” and in its trivia listing it says
Initially shot in 2006 but during re-shoots the following year all but one of the original cast was replaced and most of the initial footage scrapped.
That’s pretty harsh. I guess the first movie wasn’t all that good if they thought they had to scrap it all.
Well without Jewel Staite in it, I have no interest anymore!
Thanks to International Friend Mark Davidson for the heads up in the comments!
