Pure s***. Y'ever watch a movie and see the twist at the end coming and wonder, "why?", all the while realizing that the author probably put the twist in to try and make a complete pig of a movie 'unique' enough to gain financial backing? This is that movie. The opening murder is grotesque and gruesome enough to qualify as "horror"-grade schlock. Pullman's had enough chances. I'm done with him.
If you insist, rent this dog first; you'll probably agree it's not worth owning and thereby save yourself a few dollars. You can't have your time back, though.

This movie is about the excessive lengths David Lynch went to so that he wouldn't have to tell his kid that she has no business being a film maker. I can't imagine what he must have paid Pullman and Ormond to go along with the gag, but since I haven't gotten any checks from David Lynch yet, I'm free to warn you not to see this ugly little pile of boring.

Flag my attention with Julia Ormond.
Take a mediocre plot, twist it like a piece of taffy (so that it just offbeat enough to appear barely "cool" enough to keep watching), and then load it down with gore as a reward.
David Lynch indeed has come on hard times.

I'm up for a B movie. I like Bill Pullman and French Stewart, so I decided this was an ok way to spend an hour and a half. I followed the gore and hollow dialogue for an hour and 20 minutes until it became clear that there was going to be a Karla Faye Tucker moment. Even people who make movies should have some decency. Kent Harper had the arrogance to write, direct, and act in this piece of garbage. Even in the name of "creative expression" or "art," this is a piece of junk. If you'd like another look at a piece of junk, take a peek at Harper's [...] bio. He wrote it himself. Makes himself sound like Aaron Spelling.
Please don't watch this movie.

The movie jacket quotes media reviewers as describing this as "twisted and distrubing" which I absolutely agree with, and "deliciously demented," which I do not.
This is a SCARY movie on multiple levels, not least of what have can happen to innocents in the middle of nowhere where the only amusement the cops have is doing serioiusly twisted things to people including shooting out their tires from a distance.
I won't spoil it, this movie is outside the norm, and I am not a fan of scary movies in general, this movie gets five instead of four stars from me because I found it deeply engrossing, totally intriguing. This is not a "fun" movie but rather a look at a side of life you would never want to see for real--on that basis, a perfect movie.
