Meanwhile three drug dealers are getting ready for their latest deal and doing some philosophising of their own ...where are they going, what are they doing - Everything goes pear-shaped when the vehicle the car thieves steal belongs to the dealers - as the dealers give chase they accidently cut up a car containing the art thieves - in an ultimate road rage scenario the art thieves decide to kill the person who has just cut them up - This shattering pivotal coincidence leads to carnage, chaos, brutality and murder.

Year:

Told through leaked footage compiled by a whistle-blower, the film follows Emma and Richard, a couple thrust into the wilderness to survive for 100 days. Their confidence quickly turns to terror as a malevolent creature begins stalking them, ultimately killing Richard in a gruesome attack. Emma escapes and infiltrates the facility where the show's creators review their "progress." There, she discovers the chilling truth: the creature is part of their unholy science. With the odds stacked against her, Emma turns the tables - delivering brutal justice with unexpected aid from the very horror that was meant to destroy her. A darkly satirical blend of horror, sci-fi, and mockumentary, THE WILDING exposes the monstrous extremes the powerful will go to cheat death - and the human cost of their ambition.
