Plot Summary:
|
A family making their annual Christmas pilgrimage to Grandmother's domicile finds their journey taking an prognostic axe when they attempt to memo an unused to shortcut in this low-skeleton key chiller from first-beat director Jean-Baptiste Andrea. Allowing for regarding 20 years, Frank Harrington (Scintilla Expedient) has driven the unvaried, rail at-numbingly in road to the annual break congress, but the discovery of an unfamiliar shortcut solely proves too enticing for the loving but strained father to resist. As the highway grows increasingly dark, the eerie notice of a ... young woman carrying a trifling infant sets into action a horrific series of roadside deaths that finds the family's numbers quickly dwindling.

Excellent Little Thriller
This independent film shows spark with its excellent dialogue. If you have ever been a family going away together on a drive, you will be able to connect with this film. The plot is original and does give a nod to the Outer Limits and Twilight Zone television shows. There are some scary set pieces and the climax is well excuted and not a cop out. Highly recommended.

Clocking in at just 83 minutes with only one location and six characters, it's an impressive example of how horror filmmaking can sometimes revolve around the simplest of premises - here, a family trapped on an isolated, and seemingly endless, stretch of highway.
