A
group of kids meet up with a guy named
Nik (Kyle Schmid) whom one of them named
Kayla (Laura Jordan) has constantly
chatted to on the net and thinks that
they're in love with one another.
Suddenly their car breaks down and spots
a run down house near a cliff as they
break into the house but some of them
thinks it hasn't been resides for years
and then spots a car they drive to a
diner to. One of them named Melissa
(Nicky Lynn Ayox) leaves her cell number
at the house in case anyone resides there
to pay for the damage deposits.
The house happens to be the home of that
vicious truck driver named Rusty Nail
(Mark J. Gibbon) who loves to terrorise
people who play pranks on him like the
first incident 7 years before as well as
killing prosititues.
After he spots his house broken into this
enrages him and tracks down these kids at
the diner and kidnaps Melissa's fiancee
Bobby (Nick Zano) and manipulates them
all into doing exactly what he tells them
in order to see him again but the more
they do what he tells them the nastier
ideas he has for them all which causes
them their lives as well as torturing
them too.
We spot a
good beginning with a hooker Lot Lizard hopping into a truck and having
a conversation with Rusty Nail along with
a dark shot on him smoking a cigarette.
There's a great shot on him
grabbing her and having her locked
against a half closed window on his truck
door and then a good shot on him driving
his truck with her screaming while they
pass another truck which looked deadly.
Next there's a good shot on Bobby driving his car on a deserted highway
approaching a truck trying to scare his
friends which looked suspenseful too.
There's a nice approach with Nik at a gas station dragging Kayla out of the car and kissing
her.
We have a good shot on Nik at
the house looking in a window and then
smashing it with him running in and then
screaming with a good shot on Bobby breaking down the door.
A nice shot on the truck rolling in
towards the house with smoke blowing out
of the pipes.
We have a good conversation with allof the main characters talking at a diner.
We have a good shot on Melissa sitting at the diner with a window behind
her and the truck pulling in giving it
that creepy feel to it.
There's a good moment with Melissa after answering her cell phone and
hearing the cold voice of Rusty on the
other line telling her that he has her
boyfriend with good shots on her running
to the washroom where he once was and
looking outside and then panicking like
crazy.
We have a nice shot on Melissa crying while at the wheel of the car
being forced to run over her cell phone
with Nik convincing her that
she doesn't have to do this.
There's a great moment with Kayla at
a mortuary trying to cut off finger of a
corpse with her really tripping out while
doing so.
We also have a good shot on Melissa standing in front of a truck while being
forced to strip down. Then we have a
good comedic moment after she discovers
the truck driver isn't Rusty acting
perverted towards her telling her he's
going to podcast what she did.
There's good shots with Nik dressed in drag sulking while walking by
some truckers hanging out choking out his
words for some meth with good shots on
some of the drunk
truckers making sexist
remarks.
We also have a good shot on him stumbling
in the road with two trucks passing by
him and him tripping out. Then a good
shot on Rusty grabbing him and
throwing him in his truck.
There's a good shot on Melissa and Kayla driving in their car and the truck behind
them constantly crashing into their car
along with a good shot on the car
spinning over. Next we see a nice shot on
the truck backing up along the road and
then charging forward. We spot a good
shot on her giving the driver
the finger and then the truck charging
through the car with Melissa running away along with a great
explosion.
We also have a good torturous scene with Rusty in a shack towards both Bobby and Nik when he rolls dice and does something
painful to the two of them.
A nice dragging scene with Rusty hauling Bobby into his loading
part of his truck and then tying him up
in a painful way which also makes you
cringe to watch.
A nice moment with Melissa driving
the truck with Rusty on top
trying to grab her and then jumping out
with a nice shot on the truck falling
over a cliff and exploding.
We spot numerous dark shots on Rusty speaking on his cell smoking a cigarette.
Bottom line: It's
about time that there was a sequel to the
first hit but this time it's more
psychological with what Rusty Nail forces
these kids what to do. However, it's less
creepy and mysterious. Still, it makes
you cringe on what they are manipulated
to do. We have many good locations with the huge
cliff and we get to see a bit more of
Rusty Nail and close to what he looks
like along with where he resides too
which a sequel should cover instead of
leaving it all a mystery on the first
film. At the end you think there won't be a
door for another sequel but keep watching
but yet it doesn't make sense on how
Rusty survives.
The acting is wonderful as Nicky Lynn Ayox
(Melissa) shows her stuff very energetically with
her freaked out emotions as well as
crying on set wonderfully too with the
intense moments she is forced to do. She
also brought her aggressions quite well
too. There's a good reaction with Ayox after answering her cell phone and
hearing the cold voice. She does well
looking uncomfortable while being forced to strip down. She does well by smashing into a
station and then drives off with a police
motorcycle.
Nick Zano (Bobby) also showed nice
aggressions too as well as his painful
reactions to the torturing along with the
perfect looks as the descent type of
fellow to be around. Does well by screaming in pain when being tortured.
Kyle Schmid (Nik) played the perfect role
as a shit disturber in the film just
doing what he wants to do and saying what
he wants to say leading him into trouble
of course since his character very much
reminds me of people I knew that I
couldn't stand being around. He does well speaking loudly at
the diner mocking truckers and making an
ass out of himself which looked very
natural. He also does
well acting wimpy when he ends up being
in trouble with his whiney actions and
sobbing too. A great reaction on him crying hysterically in the car.
Mark J. Gibbon (Rusty Nail) is a bit more seen in
the film but his face is still hidden in
the dark of course but still he shows a
good evil deep voice to his part and knew
how to act monstrous.
I have to mention a supporting actress in
the film whom was only seen in the
beginning of the film but was the key to
the story named Krystal Vrba (Lot Lizard) who
plays a prostitute since I worked with
her in the trashy obscure horror anthology and showing she really
proved herself to work in better films
and pulled her part extremely well
showing a good sleazy attitude.
She shows a good bad attitude. I know
she will still get work with a good
performance like that.
There's also another interesting
performance by bit part actor Lyle
St. Goddard (Goofy Looking Truck Driver) plays a good typical perverted type
in the film making you want to hate him
too.
There's a
good brief breast shot by Krystal
Vrba when she pulls down her top in
a truck.
There's bare breasts on a corspe in a
mortuary.
A finger is cut
off
A jaw is torn off a man's mouth
A steel bar is stabbed through a person's
head
Some effective screechy
sounds and some banging noises which
really makes it suitable for the plot.
There's some good fast paced classical
music during a scene when a truck is on
the tail of the car constantly banging
the car.
Rusty
Nail: I like the rain. Keeps
everybody inside and washes everything
clean.
Goofy
Looking Truck Driver: Whoo-wee! This
is the finest striptease I ever did see!
I'm gonna throw this up on YouTube, get
me a million hits.
Melissa: Who are you?
Goofy Looking Truck Driver:
Whoever you want, sexy mama. Close them
pretty eyes and pretend I'm Kenny Chesney
for all I care.
Rusty
Nail: Get in, y'catch your death out
there... hahahahaha... |
