Seven friends from Sacramento, California head out on a documented road trip to Las Vegas. Their trip takes a very unexpected turn for the worse when their back tires mysteriously blow out. A couple miles down the road, they find a little gas station Diner/Motel, run by the most friendly, polite and "helpful" people. It appears that their problems are solved, but boy are they wrong! When convinced by "The Helpers" to stay overnight, the friends all wake up in their rooms to a new kind of gruesome and bloody terror!

Poptart_Psycho Christ Stokes did an okay job there's so many of these movies popping up. The plot was simple but it doesn't deter you from the film itself. Yes there is gore so for those who enjoy that there are a few specific scenes .The begin shows news footage of an orphanage burning down A group of friends are travelling to Las Vegas for a holiday, whilst driving the tyres pop. With no signal the group decide to walk. And cliché enough they walk to a motel restaurant which has a side garage.Whilst there they are met by 4 seemingly friendly owners who fix their car. When fixed the owners offer them a free stay as its dark. Agreeing a huge party takes place. As morning hits some are up and ready to leave but others are tied up in torturous positions, and try to break free and save each other.The ending has a decent twist possibly predictable if you payed attention at the beginning but regardless watchable at the best
iamtherobotman Are there people who are actually this stupid?? It started off not too bad but very quickly became unbelievably stupid and moronic. The couple who "escaped" only to meet the proprietor of the establishment on the road and actually believe he didn't have a hand in what was happening was the final nail in this movies coffin for me.I'm getting increasingly tired of Horror movies with zero substance, incredibly stupid characters and a plot which makes no sense what-so-ever.Please, someone make a decent Horror film soon. I love the genre but the lack of quality is beginning to wear me out.
Nick Bennett This film starts off pretty basic and then gets ridiculous as most movies of this genre do. I am a fan of movies of this genre if they can do it correctly. The reason I say correctly, is that the victims need to be smart and the antagonists need to be that much smarter to pull something like this off. It starts off alright but then it goes to your basic protagonists acting stupid and you not caring about them at all. A few times I was actually cheering for them to be killed. The acting and effects were fine for a low budget film such as this, but the writing was terrible. They really couldn't do much to make this unique, but they could have made it more watchable.
spotlightne This movie left me laughing throughout. So many stupid things happen. The 'victims' are stupid; the killers are stupid.How can 78 people give this movie a 10/10? Unbelievable.I gave it 4/10 because I was being charitable.What's it about? Well not much. Seven 'teenagers' (who are all in their late 20s/early 30s) go on a road trip. The usual thing happens. Their car tyres get a puncture and yes you've guessed it they go off wandering for help.THIS, the movie tells us, will be their downfall.After walking a little while, they meet up at a roadside motel and gas station. All seems friendly at first but then the inevitable happens. Nothing is surprising. Nothing is that much interesting. You know they're not going to leave that place singing and dancing.The victims act dumb because they are dumb. You'll find yourself screaming 'kill him!' And guess what happens after knocking one of the killers unconscious, YEAH, THEY DON'T KILL HIM.Hmm, looks familiar. But now it's boring.If you're looking for something different in this movie, forget it. It's like Saw and Vacancy rolled into one, except the majority of the acting sucks big time.Ultimately it's very forgettable.
