Preview: The Canyon (2009)

Synopsis:

A couple takes a vaction at the Grand Canyon when their tour guide is struck by a venomous snake and must fight off wolves and other problems in order to survive and escape.

• Poster: D+

Review:

A woman waving a torch with an amorphous background is hardly the kind of image that draws in audiences. Something a little more thrilling or grandiose would have been more appropriate.

• Trailer: B-

Review:

While it's clear this film is extremely low-budget (just look at some of the fake rock formations created in scenes where the actors must interact with them), there's something surprisingly challenging in the film that makes it look less like your traditional thriller that might provide some interesting dramatic situations.

Oscar Prospects:

None.

Release Date:

• October 23, 2009
