The Australian outback is one of the most vast, desolate and brutal landscapes in the world. Today four innocent friends on a camping trip are about to find out how deadly that landscape is. Soon they will be forced to face pure, unadulterated evil in a bloody, gruesome journey to hell they might not survive... or want to survive. Forced off the road by a "road train" three-trailer truck, their 4x4 is destroyed. On approaching the truck responsible they find it abandoned without any trace of a driver. Deciding to steal the truck in order to make it to the next town they soon make a dreadful discovery: the vehicles sinister cargo. Dragged into a diesel-powered, blood drenched nightmare, now their only destination is death. (StudioCanal UK)

Interesting little thriller. The best thing is that, at least during the first hour, it’s very unpredictable because basically you can’t figure out what kind of evil the protagonist is facing, but then it starts resembling another, and not very good film in a similar setting: Rest Stop. I like weird films, but they need very talented creators – a decent craftsman is not enough, unfortunately. It’s right between two and three stars, unlike Obitus, though, I’d rather not recommend it (by a little).
