A small-town killing spree lands on the doorstep of a rural diner, where a young waitress must fight for her life throughout one long night.
The film is short and sweet and seems simple at first, then explains how we got to a certain point after the reveal and then continues the story.
Manages to stay throughout where it’s all around revenge where each of the film's protagonists takes up their own vigilante Justice in any way.
Even though they are sympathetic, none of the characters is particularly likable. It might be that they all seem kind of hopeless in their own way, or at least somewhat stuck.
By making the characters unlikable damaged yet sympathetic, ask the audience to find some sympathy for the characters they never would have normally even if just as victims.
The film is pretty cut and dry though add some spice to the mix that keeps it tasty throughout. In the first half we get to learn about the characters and seems almost to be your typical siege or slasher tail. Once it gets more into the second half of the explanation, it becomes a little more dramatic but also that much more interesting.
As it seems to battle against itself to be labeled more than basic.
However, it does have a scene with the most realistic yet coldest reaction to a character suddenly facing hard out of nowhere.
The end of the film is not necessarily spectacular, but at least it’s interesting and mildly noteworthy and definitely not a bad debut by Director Alex Scott Neal. Interested to see the filmmakers' next works
Grade: C+
