Wilderness (2006) R - 3½ Stars

A group of juveniles punks in prison think they're pretty bad ass. After they terrorise and drive another inmate to commit suicide, they are sent to an island for punishment. For one week they will be forced to rely upon each other in order to practice character building. They must learn how to cooperate with each other if they are to be rehabilitated.

The young men look at the island as pretty much a week off. It's sort of like camping without the prison bars but one thing they don't know is, the disgruntle father of the boy who committed suicide, is also on the island. He has a crossbow and dogs and is looking for revenge for the death of his son. Now the group must band together in order to stay alive.
