Denise Richards and Kym Johnson-Herjavec are opening up to "Extra's" Melvin Robert about their new lifetime movie "Hunting Housewives."

If Denise thought those "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" reunions were hard, it's nothing compared to a group of women surviving in the wilderness after a plane crash.

The movie is "Lost" meets "Survivor" and "Predator," but starring "Housewives" alum Denise and Nene Leakes, as well as former "Dancing with the Stars" pro Kym and actress Melyssa Ford.

Richards described the project, saying, "It is four best friends who go on a spa retreat," and Kym added it is "a wild trip… we think were going on a wonderful girls vacation that ends up being very different to what we imagined."

So how would they survive in real life?

Denise said, laughing, "We both said we wouldn't do well in the woods."

Kym agreed, "I don't like the outdoors that much. Not sleeping on the ground. I'm not very good at that. We would survive though."

Richards agreed, "We would survive. And I think that is one of the things about the movie that is so fun. You see four women who have lavish lifestyles and are put in this situation where they have to see what they're made of and figure things out."

Kym shared, "You get to see the relationships with the girlfriends, and you get to see a little bit more about their own marriages… most of us are in unhappy marriages we don't really like our husbands."

She added, "This way you actually get to see if we can survive this situation, some of us may, some of us may not."

Melvin asked Denise which would be harder to survive, "Hunting Housewives" or an "RHOBH" reunion.

Richards laughed and said, "The 'Housewives' reunions are really tough… I would say that."

Denise added of "Hunting Housewives," "It is a fun movie. It sounds… really dark, but it's actually really fun."

Kym agreed, "I think people will really think it is a really fun movie."

"Hunting Housewives" premieres Mar. 9 at 8 p.m. on Lifetime and will be available on streaming the next day.
