Review of Rest Stop

Rest Stop (2006 Video)
8/10
Some people apparently don't get it. (Possible Spoilers)

Warning: Spoilers
The movie starts out slow and seems to be your basic Texas Chainsaw or Hills Have Eyes wannabe at first. But when things really get going you realize that there is more going on than meets the eye. KZL 303 seems to have been around for years, murdering "sinners" who come past this Rest Stop. He is the punisher of the wicked according to the RV family of roadie freaks. And anyone who stops at this Rest Stop is gonna get what's comin' to him. Victims appear and disappear. Damage to KZL's truck is magically repaired. Everything makes his victims wonder if any of it really happened before they die in extreme pain and are trapped in KZL's very own purgatory forever.

This movie is much better than many of these comments make it seem. There are definitely some underlying plot lines that are not obvious at first. The plot holes people seem to see are not actually plot holes. There are answers to the questions but you have to watch carefully. First of all KZL 303 is definitely not human. There are some demonic or inter-dimensional qualities about him and his actions. Same goes for the RV freaks. They seem to live to follow KZL and help him scare his victims senseless. It was much better than Jeepers Creepers. I would watch it again and again.
