    I dont have this one as yet since its not on DVD here yet but ive seen it and it is a very good thriller featuring a young Drew Barrymore in one of her early teen roles.

    I did not really like this movie.

    I loved this movie soooo much. I really felt bad for Joleen though I mean she nearly gets raped by one guy and killed by the other. Good guys are so hard to find these days. LOL

    A teenage girl and her dad are driving cross country when they run out of gas and become stranded in a trailer park. Meanwhile some people have been killed in the area and that sets the mystery for this thriller that just doesn?t convince. Bad low budget thriller with many plot h...( read more)oles and predictable ending make this a very, very bad choice.

    Not a bad teen Drew Barrymore thriller movie.

    With the actor we know so much as Mark from RENT, Drew Berrymore as a scared punk little girl is not the hottest video to take off the shelf, but she is the hottest thing you'll see in this film.
    Movie is predictable, but give it a shot to watch.
