Just after watching a few minutes my thought about The Hike was: WoW, someone got a cheap digital camera and invited his friends to make an recap of a movie.

No, sorry but this is not worth watching.

This movie has everything a movie should avoid: terrible acting, shallow characters, uninspiring storyline, amateur direction and weird musical score. What else can go wrong with this movie?

Well add to that list an ultra low budget, which means zero production value (think homemade costumes and someone's little brother behind the bushes making sound effects.)

The cherry on top has got to be the blood-curdling banshee screaming. Pumpkin where are you??? Listening to the screams was about as much fun as being eaten alive by a pack of zombies. Apparently someone thought this would flop would pop, but I have to disagree.

While I applaud the effort, that doesn't change the fact that this is a really bad movie. And it's movies like this that give the horror genre a bad reputation.

On the plus side, literally within the seconds you will learn that this movie belongs in the massive pile of moviemaking flops. Yes I mean that literally. I call that a plus because you have early warning to make a cataclysmic decision to endure unimaginable pain for 90 minutes or flip the channel and set yourself free! Free! Free!

On the negative side, well, where to begin? This "movie", or rather this assemblage of shrill and cringe worthy gasps, groans and burps, is like nothing you'll ever experience again (if you are lucky). Innate talent has never been so distant from a group of people. The best way to sum it up is to say that this movie is a misguided and deluded interpretation of what constitutes the makings of a movie, in other words, garbage in and garbage out.
