Fickman ends up buried by the cliches he’s invited over the threshold.

A lightly metaphysical body count movie set primarily in a beat-up recreational vehicle, it meanders more than it purposefully goes anywhere. That’s a compliment, mostly.

Rated: 2.5/4

Horror thriller fans looking for a good scare probably need to catch another ride. This one has too many problems to justify taking the road trip.

Rated: 3/10

It’s hard to doubt that some of the film’s effectiveness was the unintentional result of a very low budget.

... takes itself too seriously instead of leaning into the campy absurdity.

AWFUL! I hated every second of this. It was trash. Actors were awful. Plot was trash if there was any. There were lots of areas to make it good but they just didn't. Don't watch. It was a waste of time.

At first, I didn’t think I was gonna be able to watch it because it starts out pretty tacky and there’s a lot of “woo girl” scenes. But then it started to get better ~and then I was actually interested in it ~and then it actually got kind of scary ~so yeah, pretty good horror flick. I mean those kids kinda had it coming. Hahaha

Constant secondhand embarrassment, wasn’t scary or funny. And I could see the physical backdrops behind them. I’d give it 0 stars but alas, I can’t.

Interesting premise with a cool concept. However, the dialogue is painfully unfunny. While it has a cool atmosphere, the execution of the film severely holds it back.

Skip this..I'm watching it & literally reviewing this mess of a movie. Who wrote this crap? Characters have no sense, no chemistry that makes me believe that they could be friends. Their motivation for anything dealing with survival is illogical. Dialog is awful. Skip it
