JAMES DEAN as a Serial Killer ???
HITCHIKER theasylum's
(theasylum.cc)
Starring Jeff Denton (interviewed), Shaley Scott( soon to be interviewed).
Leigh Scott ( writer & director) brings us his version of the someone who you need to pass by and not stop for.
This movie was scary and suspenseful. That said , It has some ugly moments with sheer violence and sending the wrong message towards female abuse.
Denton plays the bad guy and has major problems with women, Jeff has played flaming genteels(Pirates Of Treasure Island) and good guys( Beast of Bray Road),This time NOT NICE !We have labeled Denton with JAMES DEAN look, This film is something DEAN may have tried if time and car error had been kinder.
Shaley Scott , Is known for her singing and this film proves she can act too. We felt she was really given a opportunity to shine and that is very rare for your first effort on screen with lines. She is also featured on the box art, Which again is quite a kudo.
The violence is very real seeming, Especially the gun play has a gritty hurt- producing effect.
The ending is questionable for effect, I hate red herring stuff, But the female hero made it all work .
Dont rent just from seeing the cover
I rented this because it had a cool cover and thought it would have some good gore. It starts out good, but it just got dumb middle to the end. The nudity isnt anything special. The gorest parts are when a guy gets shot in the head and blood gets on a white door. The shootout at the end was laughable. They shoot pistols and a shotgun and it takes like 2 seconds to hit something. This reminded me of Rest Stop since that had an awesome cover and had potential, but totally sucked.
I just noticed that The Asylum made this, but it looks like a Lionsgate movie.
Excellent
I never heard of any of these actors but I believed them in the movie. The story line was excellent. The gore wasn't over the top in an effort to cover bad acting or a lame story line. This movie uses suspense and dread to build its atmosphere. And it uses mental instability, rape and violence to keep us glued to our seats. It acheives what the "Hitcher", "RestStop", "I Know What you Did Last Summer" and others of this ilk have failed to do. It actually scares you. I have added this movie to my horror collection next to two of its worthy peers: "The Devils Rejects" and "Last House on the Left".
