What started out as an ultimate wilderness challenge for five strangers from the city quickly turned into a desperate struggle for life and death when the group crosses trails with an unstable and sadistic paramilitary squad.

Survival Quest -- A bunch of city slickers from different backgrounds go into the wild mountains to be one with nature, but basically to have a good time. However, a paramilitary group has chosen the same time to go camping. When one of the soldiers thinks their boss has been killed by one of the city slickers, he coaxes his team into exterminating all of them. They will have to rely on their wits and on each other in order to survive.

Beastmaster director Don Coscarelli presents this tense action drama about a quintet of urbanites (including Catherine Keener and Dermot Mulroney) who head for the Rockies for the ultimate wilderness challenge, only to butt heads with a paramilitary group sharing the trail. Soon, the city slickers find themselves battling more than the wilderness in this film co-starring Lance Henriksen, Mark Rolston, Reggie Bannister and Paul Provenza.

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 BURN AFTER READING) – it was supposed to be the ultimate wilderness challenge: Four weeks at the North Rockies Survival Quest School led by a tough-as-nails instructor. 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.
