    High Desert Kill
    Three guys (2 buddies and the nephew of their dead friend) go on a hunting trip that happens every year. They meet up with always good Chuck Connors who plays expert hunter Stan Brown. He tells them there is no game anywhere, but the three brush it off and go off on their hunting expedition anyway. But once the hot female campers disappear and they catch themselves eating some raw bear it's time to hit the road Jack, but they find out it's not that easy.

    Now, there really is some mystery shrouding the story, some good music throughout and Chuck Connors is good and not wasted. Yet the execution on the story needed to be reworked I thought in order for this to hit the mark. The final act works best, but the opening act is bad. As well there is this evil or bad guy P.O.V. while the characters are sleeping that is down right cheesy and not scary at all. It gets old real fast, but they keep going to it during the movie. Also starring Marc Singer.

    I did wonder when watching this movie though how many days were they planning to go without a change of clothes? Did they not bring any with them?

    Close, but not close enough 5/10
