Ticks (1993)

Tyler gets dropped off under a city overpass in a bad part of town to wait for the youth group bus to take him to camp.  A tough urban kid appears out of nowhere and starts to hassle him.  But he's played by Alfonso Ribiero, who is the least tough person ever to play a street kid, so no need to worry.  It turns out he's waiting for the bus too.

The counselors drive the kids up to the woods for some sort of bonding experience to try to get them on the right path.  It's not really clear why most of the teens are enrolled as they don't seem particularly troubled.

Panic is street smart but friendly to the adults.  Tyler has nightmares from being lost in the woods as a child.  Dee Dee is a spoiled rich girl.  Her boyfriend Rome just appears to be along for the ride, and to get a little more ethnic diversity in the film.  Kelly doesn't speak to people, and the last girl is the counselors daughter.  She seems more troubled than any of the others, but is only there because she's got nowhere else to stay.

When they stop for supplies, the group runs into a couple of creepy guys at the general store.  Later  the same two guys wander up to their campsite to ask questions. Oh that's not good. You don't want the creepy guys knowing where you sleep at night. And in horror movies there is no such thing as a coincidence so watch out!

But the creepy guys not the worst of their problems since the woods are full of mutated killer ticks and they aren't discriminating in who they attack. The most interesting part of the movie is that one of the kids is played by Seth Green.

Worst line of dialogue:
"They call me Panic - because I never do."
