I was completely entertained by this good low budget film. It starts out with an innocent trip by two couples and then when another character enters the picture it just keeps building and building to a completely original and surprising ending. John Savage gives a tour de force performance as the psychopathic killer who holds the two couples captive and once again proves he is probably one of the most underrated actors in America, from "The Onion Fields" "The Deer Hunter" to "Inside Moves" amongst dozens of other great films he just keeps going and going. The late Trevor Goddard brings a really interesting character to life as does the rest of the cast. This little independent film needs to really get out there as it is so well written, directed, acted and the production values are so professional. It's a joy to see such a well made small movie. So for independent film buffs this is a must see!

I saw this movie on DVD and for a low budget film it had a big budget look with really good photography and interesting locations. The story was very well written and full of surprises as it unfolds. The weakest link in the chain, however, is the lead actor Loren Avedon, but he is shored up by really good performances from Francesco Quinn as a humorous side-kick who can also kick some ass although he is always needing to be rescued and the late Brion James who also adds humor to the action. Lisa Crosato as the fiancee who needs to be rescued by Avedon is solid and very attractive in a wholesome girl-next-door way. When all the action attempts by Avedon and Quinn seem to be failing, Avedon has to rely on his ESP gift to locate his loved one and save her. When she is found the surprises start to unfold one after another to make it a very clever script that is well directed. If you like independent action films with good villians, you'll like this one.
