Suspense Like You Will Never Know

The suspense of this movie made me late for work, when I got to work I discovered everyone else was late due to this movie being so suspenseful! The movie description tells you all you need to know. The end is something you must see only because I did, and it's only fair you do too. Will say this though; I didn't see it coming. There really isn't much more to say and I don't want to spoil this for any of you so I will most certainly not do that. The acting is decent, and the direction is very good so this is not by any means a waste of time. I say that because I know this will be the initial reaction of most people.

Goofs
Madolyn Smith said she took a wheel from the 'T'-Bird to replace the one on her Land Rover, but it would not have fitted. T bird wheels had a fitment of 5 x 4.5" x 1/2" stud. Land Rover's have 5 x 6.5 x M14 or M16 stud.
