Cult!
Some travelers witness a ritual human sacrifice by a satanic cult on the highway. . It is certainly not horror, who would come up with the idea of labeling this as horror? It is an action thriller with a paranoid atmosphere. Quite a bit of action towards the end. Also a lot of female screaming. The final scene is cliché. No, I didn't think it was a bad film and it would certainly deserve a remake.

Nice film in which two couples go on holiday with a camper and witness a satanic murder. It doesn't really get exciting anywhere, and here and there it can even be called a bit clumsy. But the film doesn't last too long and enough happens. The action-packed finale is the best part of the film.

No, not as good as the score here suggests. With this nice idea, a lot more could have been achieved and then I'm not talking about the horror aspect. Because honestly, in terms of horror, this doesn't amount to much. But okay, the structure of the story and the visual aspect such as the beautiful landscapes and the action scenes are the plus points, but the film doesn't really get exciting despite the sinister idea. A lot of action scenes are chosen that certainly know how to entertain, but it mainly lacks the necessary tension. A clear example of this is the very simple final elaboration.
Average. 6/10
