There has never been a movie produced quite like "The Hike"(2020/2021). The Hike is based on true hiking stories from the southern parts of the Appalachian Trail and the production company's possible real life run in with a Native American legend. A couple from East Tennessee goes on a three day hike in the Great Smoky Mountains. The fun starts to dissipate when they start finding evidence of possible criminal activity scattered throughout the trails, and the deeper they plunge into the wilderness, the more they feel like they are being watched. Things take a turn for the worse when the couple runs into a trio of intimidating strangers. Their intentions are unclear, and the couple tries everything to escape the woods before violence ensues with their new adversaries. Critics have noted the beautiful scenery, wildly unpredictable plot, the humor, the dialogue and the tension. But "The Hike" is probably best described as, as one reviewer stated, " Clerks in a horror movie in the woods." In addition to tension, gore, mystery, comedy, adult situations and the paranormal, the film features the longest four person fight scenes in cinematic history.
