Film with same idea

I remember seeing a fim with the same premise as this one.

It was a film about a mother and daughter who go rafting and this guy befriends them. Of course he`s a bad guy and they end up on a terrible journey. Anyone know what I`m talking about?

I`m sure it was a TV movie.

Thanks

I was thinking the same thing, the movie Dangerous Waters, it was a made for tv movie.

How about Cape Fear? Both are water, boats, and both involved nut jobs being the bad guy. Either one of these would have been a good role for Dennis Hopper.

Just looked it up and it was Dangerous Waters. Thankyou. That was driving me nuts. Mainly because I could picture Matt McCoy but never remember anything he was in to look him up!

Thank you.

Or another one http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0096098/
Shoot To Kill - not rafting but trecking but the plot is very similar - highly recommended! And avoid spoilers at all cost!
