Plot |
A wide variety of strangers get stranded at an out of the way motel in Nevada due to a rain storm (an actress and her ex-cop driver; a cop & his prisoner; a set of parents and their son; a hooker; two newlyweds; and the motel owner). One-by-one they end up dying.

Pros |
You can look forward to a lot of suspense intermixed with gore and plot twists. I loved the ending. The acting was superb throughout the cast. |
Cons |
It is shot entirely at night in a storm hence it's always dark; I would have hated to work on this film. Once the story started to sort itself out, the final scene was very predictable. |

Recommendation |
This film grabs your attention and doesn't let it go until the very end; if you're a fan of Hitchcock you'll want to check this out. This is not a film for people that are inclined to having bad dreams. |
