The reason they didn't show you who or what was in the car, Was because they wanted the car to represent ALL child molesters and killers. I thought that for a low budget film, They did a good job pointing out the true terror of Child Molesters.I really do believe that the director was trying to make a film while also bringing out a point. The opening scene with the little girl walking slowly down the middle of the highway when a trooper approaches in his car and is stunned by the site of her out there in the middle of nowhere was exceptional. It brings out the reality of "REAL" child rapists. Unfortunately, Most of the "REAL" Children aren't as lucky as the girls in the film and they DON'T get to walk away.

Terrible, awful, abominable, contrived, just plain bad, horrendous, laughable, dreadful, ghastly, so bad it just has to be watched. I could not stop, I had to watch it to the end, I just had to find out how bad it could get. Well, it did not disappoint. The ending was definitely up to the rest of the movie, only worse. Just how many feet of film was wasted on this I don't know. But 1 second's worth is too much. I curse hurricane Jeanne for trapping me in the house with only this (UPN) coming in clearly on my TV. It was this or hurricane coverage of fallen trees and dogs wading through puddles. I chose this. It was a tough choice. I probably would have been better off if I was one of those who lost power. I think I secretly hoped I would lose power so I could breakaway from this mesmerizing stupidity.

Possibly one of the worst movies I've ever seen. I did sit through the whole thing but only because it became so humorous because it was so bad. The acting was god awful. There's no real resolution, just a big explosion. Lame.

Having watched this one day on ;local UPN during a very slow day of doing technical support on a weekend, I can say that I am scared that this movie ever made it out of the can.The opening of the movie, lends itself to give you hope that the show might actually be worth your time. But as the movie goes on, things go down hill.The most annoying part of this movie is that use of slow motion camera. It's like someone just discovered the technology and decided to add to the very pathetic dramatic scenes but slowing everything down.POTENTIAL SPOILER ALERTALMOST THERE TO SPOILER **BEGIN POTENTIAL SPOILER**I found it very ironic that the heroine, the mother of the kidnapped child, continually slammed her school bus into this mystery man's vehicle. Why would any mother continue to smash a big school bus into a car of someone that had kidnapped her daughter? Did they not think that one out? The car might flip with the daughter in it and kill her? She might not have a seat belt?Also, the explosion scene at the end seemed a little contrived and an attempt to give more to the "dramatic ending".I'm sorry, but this movie is a laugh, definitely not what the team that made it was shooting for. Official advice, don't waste a minute of your time watching this show.
