Survival movies

Predator. Nothing wrong with that. Jessie Ventura uttering "I dont have time to bleed." is memorable.
 
A little known movie about the Inuit people (eskimos) made by the people themselves is one called Fastrunner, Its a great one but may be hard to find.

That movie is based on Hugh Glass
In one of the more remarkable treks known to history, Glass set his own leg, wrapped himself in the bear hide his companions had placed over him as a shroud, and began crawling. To prevent gangrene, Glass laid his wounded back on a rotting log and let the maggots eat the dead flesh.

Trent's List:
Touching The Void
Lord of the Flies (That reminds me...I need to find a conch on EBAY)
Death Hunt (with Chuck Bronson)
First Blood
Planes, Trains and Automobiles

William Golding's Lord of the Flies features frequent references to "the Conch". In the book the conch is used as a trumpet to call everyone together and held by whoever is speaking at meetings, symbolically representing democracy and order. When a boulder released by Roger, Jack's lieutenant, smashes the conch, it is a sign that civilized order has collapsed and Jack's domination has begun.

That is a great film. I recently saw it for the first time and really enjoyed it.
 
What about Apocalypto? That was a pretty good movie about primative living and hunting. Towards the end it was all about survival.
