The Lost Tribe (2009)

Some nondescript people go on a boat trip which will culminate in an important meeting somewhere that I can't remember.  On the way, they find an injured man in the middle of the ocean and pull him to safety.  He is hysterical and unable to make sense of his words. So they sedate him and lock him in a cabin as they are afraid of what he'll be like when he wakes up.

In the middle of the night, their injured passenger escapes through a hatch onto the deck and starts steering the ship insanely. This is very unfortunate (as insane steering usually is) since he doesn't recognize the warning alarm that notes danger is ahead and he runs the ship into some rocks.

After the ship sinks, they manage to get to the shore of a deserted island and salvage some items that wash up on the beach.  Later they find their passenger dead and wonder how he got up near the jungle rather than being down by the shore.

As the group explores the island, they find a deserted tent and supplies from a research expedition, but when they go back, everything is gone.  There's something on the island and it's starting to pick them off one by one,

Do you want to watch this movie? I don't know. Do you like Predator? Because that's what you're going to get.  A lost tribe who can travel high up in the trees, have super human jumping abilities, have heat vision and can't see you if you coat your body with mud.  So you probably should just watch Predator instead since it has more suspense and action.
