This movie should be called “It Sucks To Be You”. So, there’s a woman who drives out to the middle of the woods to pour her dad’s ashes in a river where they used to go when she was a little girl. A dude stumbles by and finds her “littering” and advises her not to do it. Her car seems to have been towed and she needs a lift so the man offers her some help. He takes her to his house to use the phone and meet his wife. It all sounds really neighborly out deep in the forest where no one else seems to be living.

So, it seems they can’t get through so he offers her a room to stay the night and handle business in the morning. Cool! She has dinner and finds the wife to be a little on the “psycho” side of things. No problem…go to bed and wake up fresh, right? Wrong. She finds the man hovering over her in the dark in his underwear staring at her. And thus, her troubled life begins. Before you know it, guns are involved, rape, baby-making processes, cancer, dead cops,…Oh boy!! By the end, you don’t know what the hell is going on but you’re surely going to want some particular people to die slow, horrible deaths.

I actually kinda liked this flick. It had the dude from Southland in it and apparently Michael Rooker was in it but I must’ve blinked and not seen him. Since Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer, I’ve been a fan of his. But it was good to see some good old-fashion death going on. But in the end, this woman’s life suuuuccckkkss!!
