Road Train (2010) 4/10

Starring : Xavier Samuel, Bob Morley, Georgina Haig, Sophie Lowe, David Argue
Director : Dean Francis
Running Time : 91 mins

When four Australian teenagers get run off the road by a Road Train, they find themselves injured and trapped in the wilderness. When they spot that the truck that ran them off the road is parked a short distance from their location, they decide to steal it when someone starts taking pot shots at them. It isn’t long before they realise that there is something very strange about the truck they now find themselves driving around in.

This movie started off like a standard horror flick, and then went downhill. Apparently, and this might be a spoiler, the truck was controlling people and forcing them to feed it fuel in the shape of human corpses. I just shook my head at how stupid this concept was, and also that this was an unfunny rip-off of Blood Car. Steer clear, this may start off okay, but this isn’t worth sticking around for.
