''River Wild'' is a 2023 American adventure mystery-thriller film that is a modern-day standalone sequel of the 1994 film ''Film/TheRiverWild''.

The story follows the estranged brother and sister Gray and Joey Reese, who embark on a whitewater rafting trip amongst tourists with their childhood friend named Trevor. Along the river, the events quickly turn from exciting to terrifying, as the group finds themselves trapped alongside a killer who is intent to sabotage the trip while keeping secrets from the past from being revealed.

What makes it worst is that the killer comes from inside the group. Joey must overcome her fears and work with her brother Gray to survive to the end of the river, before it's too late.

!!This film contains examples of:

*AxCrazy: Soon enough, [[spoiler:Trevor]] becomes this. At first, he still retains his affable personality even after revealing himself to be Van's murderer. However, as the story goes on, he becomes more and more sociopathic, loosing any and all of his moral qualms in order to kill anyone in his way.
*BlackDudeDiesFirst: Subverted. [[spoiler:Karissa is the only camper to come out alive and without major injuries.]]
*TheDragon: Subverted. [[spoiler:While Gray initially reluctantly went along with Trevor's plans, he redeemed himself by not only fighting Trevor to give the other campers time to escape, but then dragging himself and Trevor to their deaths to save Joey.]]
*FauxAffablyEvil: After killing an innocent hiker who tries to help, [[spoiler:Trevor loses his affable personality and becomes increasingly impatient.]]
*QuietCryForHelp: Joey uses her metal lighter to signal for help to a hiker crossing a bridge above the river.
