Movie Reviews of Survival Quest
Movie Review: uneven fight for survival
Summary: 3 Stars
I had seen this in VHS when it first became available around 1990. As I
was a big fan of Don Coscarelli, the director, because of his early films
"Kenny and Co.", and "Phantasm", as well as his first feature "Jim, the
World's Greatest" (not available), I bought and rewatched this film, which probably
would not have interested me had I not known who made it. As it turned
out, it is better than many of his recent efforts, though somewhat uneven. It concerns a group of average and fully believable adults who decide to take a survival
course in the Sierras, and little known to them, a competing survivalist
group led by a jerk much like the bully teacher in "The Karate Kid". The
ensuing events are tense, violent, but at times silly and overdone to the
point of absurdity. It would have been better if the mean guys weren't
quite so evil and childish. Still, an entertaining movie if you are in
the mood for an undemanding, but often exciting and interesting study of
what survivalist courses may be like, at least regarding the first of the two.
Summary of Survival Quest
Explosive Adventure From The Director Of THE BEASTMASTER and PHANTASM For five strangers from the city - including a bitter divorcee (Catherine Keener of THE 40 YEAR OLD VIRGIN) and a sullen ex-convict (Dermot Mulroney of MY BEST FRIEND'S WEDDING) - it was supposed to be the ultimate wilderness challenge: Four weeks at the North Rockies Survival Quest School led by a toughas- nails instructor (Lance Henriksen of ALIENS). But when the group crosses trails with an unstable and sadistic paramilitary squad, a shocking accident turns their nature trek into a desperate struggle for life and death. Mark Rolston (THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION), Reggie Bannister (PHANTASM) and Paul Provenza co-star in this rarely seen actiondrama, now fully restored from original vault elements under the personal supervision of writer/director Don Coscarelli.
