I didn't think it was half bad... Spoilers

I thought it was a decent, forgettable low budget psycho-trucker movie. A moderately enjoyable 90 minutes. It's been done better. Not great but not bad. It was fun watching Kristin Davis in a hardcore, heavy non-Charlotte sort of role, although her limitations as an actress were painfully obvious in this movie.

My favorite by far was Charlie. She and David made a much better couple. Too bad she had to die so soon.

You look like the kind of girl who won't press charges

Are you mildly stupid? That was one of the worst movies I have ever seen.

If you're calling me stupid just because I don't agree with you then you must have voted for Bush.

As a big Meatloaf fan I thought he did a decent job as the heavy, I also laughed quite a bit because during all of the action scenes I just kept imagining him breaking into a few chords of 'Paradise by the Dashboard Light'. LOL.

I'll also watch ANYTHING with Kristen Davis in it, she's a freakin' hottie!

Since when did he start calling himself Meat Loaf ADAY? Where did that come from?

Me and my boyfriend stumbled across this on a cable channel a couple of weeks back. Only watched it for Meatloaf really! But it kept us entertained enough.

Yeah, Guess you gotta be a Meatloaf fan to actually enjoy the movie. He's a good actor, just rarely taken seriously. Funny how his personal life had a bit of cameo in the movie.

Regardless, for a low-budget slasher flick.... I kinda liked it! It would definitely have fit in as a Drive In Double Feature with Duel or White Line Fever back in the day.
