A Survival Show turns into real Survival (may contain Spoilers)

This movie reminded me a little of Man Vs Wild with Bear Grylls and more closely to the way Les Stroud use to do his survival shows.

Warning some spoilers may save you an hour and a half of your life.

Doug Woods is a failing Survival show host. Going for a ratings push he's given 5 days to survive in the Canadian North, he's struck with bad luck, temper tantrums and a mouth like a sailor. Something happens during his first night that startles him awake, the camera recording him sleep fizzles in and out of color and focus. The next day he finds a pond or river with dead fish and a wolf that doesn't bother with the water or anything in it. During filming himself doing survival stuff it's clear something or someone is stalking him. Knocking cameras over, he thinks it's just one of his crew who are camped out a few miles away. He talks to the camera as if talking to the audience of his show but what he doesn't realize is, he's teaching a creature how to kill him.

Doug is shaken during most of the first half movie but shrugs it off thinking it's just his nerves playing tricks on him because he is out in the wild. But later he is scared *beep* when he finds that what or whoever is stalking him has taken his breakfast wild rabbit, then taken his sat-phone apart and won against him in his travel-sized chess set.

Long story short Doug is being hunted by an alien since the planet, during Doug's adventure in the wild, has been attacked by an outside alien race. Doug doesn't figure this out until the end when he manages to watch an old analog TV broadcast of a city in ruins and a reporter talking about it. Doug manages to kill the alien hunting him using a long ass propeller blade on a boat motor.

This movie wasn't too bad, but you could definitely tell it was a very low budget movie. It seemed to move too slow during some points, but the way it was shot is that of a type of Survival Show with a found footage feel and standard shots of footage when he's not recording himself.

A funny moment during the movie is when Doug gets yelled at by the alien so loudly that he is flung in the air and lands hard in the shallow edge of the river/pond. He of course somehow survives.

I give this movie 6/10 and that's being gracious.
