"Son, when you get shot out there, you think it hurts like hell. But when you don't feel anything, it's when you're not going to make it. And Nicole, it doesn't hurt at all."
THIS WAS THE UNRATED VERSION?! One word: disappointing. It would have been a nice film, but it became boring and slow as the minutes ticked by. I thought I was set for a horrifying time, but I was wrong. Nicole Carrow (Jaimie Alexander) has decided to drive to California with her boyfriend, Jesse Hilts, after being fed up with her overprotective parents. What should have been a fun and romantic drive soon turned into one of horror, when, after a heated argument, Nicole insists that she as to go to the bathroom and Jesse pulls up into a rest stop. After doing her business in the bathroom, Nicole leaves the bathroom only to find that her boyfriend - and his car - is missing. As the night goes on, Nicole is terrorized by an unknown man who drives a yellow pickup with the plate number KZL 303, as well as a weird trailer family who picks her up and then drops her off again at the rest stop. The end is ho hum and so so; it took all of my self control to keep the movie where it is and not skip to the credits. Friendly tip: if someone tells you that you're going to watch Rest Stop: Dead Ahead as part of your movie marathon, do everyone a favor and chuck the DVD right into the trash.
