White Wolves II: Legend of the Wild 1995

A group of troubled teenagers reluctantly accept to aid wolf researcher Ben Harris, Corin Nemec, in order to clean their records from their law-breaking deeds. Graffiti artist “Miami” Steve, Ernie Reyes Jr., snobby daddy’s girl Crystal, Elizabeth Berkley, and surly Beri Ele Keats join Ben in his mission into the Idaho wilderness to tally wolves and recover a hidden camera.

Shortly after their trek begins, the foursome spot a mother wolf with two cubs, a moment that underscores the raw beauty and hidden dangers of the remote landscape. That night, Ben tells the group a personal story about a white wolf that saved his life, revealing himself as Benny from the previous film and hinting at a complicated past connected to the wilderness. The group’s dynamics start to push and pull at the edges of trust as they move deeper into the trees.

Two paragliders enter the scene: boaster Mason Jeremy London and introverted Jeff Justin Whalin. When Mason starts to flirt with Beri, Crystal acts out of jealousy and steals his altimeter, an act that sets off a dangerous chain of events. Mason loses control during a flight and crashes hard into the woods, a near-fatal accident that also leaves Ben badly injured as he tries to help him.

Left to face the wilderness on their own, the teens contend with whitewater rapids, prowling predators, and their own internal struggles while racing against time to save Ben and Mason and complete their mission. In a moment of danger and wonder, Beri finally experiences the white wolf herself, who appears and guides her toward safety outside a cave. The rescue comes in the form of a helicopter that lifts Ben and Mason to safety, but the group chooses to linger a little longer to finish Ben’s task and retrieve the last camera, hopeful that their actions might still redeem their records and perhaps redefine their futures.
