“Hidden Murder Island” (*1/2 out of four) was a subpar suspense thriller about two women (Andrea Borgart and Allie Forsberg) who are brutally assaulted while camping; only one makes it out alive and she subsequently attempts to uncover what really happened and who the attacker was. Inspired by true events but still rings all false and is unconvincing, despite decent performances. Director Damian Romay attempts to incorporate elements of PTSD and overall trauma but it’s more exploitative than explorative.
