About Endangered Species

Jack Halsey and his family, along with a friend, head to Kenya for a dream vacation that mixes scenery and danger. They venture into a remote wilderness on a guided safari, hoping for a memorable escape from daily life. When a sudden encounter with a furious rhino flips their safari van, the group is left scattered, injured, and cut off from help. Two members press on to find rescue, while others reckon with blood loss, fear, and the harsh surrounding scrub. Soon the next tests arrive as a leopard stalks the area and a hyena pack closes in, turning the day of sightseeing into a brutal test of nerve and stamina.

Directed by MJ Bassett, Endangered Species is built from an original concept by Paul Chronnell and Isabel Bassett, with a lean survival thriller sensibility that keeps the action tight and the stakes personal.

Reception and themes: The film leans on raw tension and the strains within a family under extreme stress. Performances by Rebecca Romijn and Philip Winchester anchor the emotional core, while the stark Kenyan landscape doubles as a harsh character that amplifies fear and grit.
