DVD Reviews of Rest Stop - Don't Look Back
DVD Review: Better than the Original
Summary: 3 Stars
Rest Stop: Don't Look Back is a sequel to the 2006 horror film Rest Stop, about a crazed pickup truck driver terrorizing a young couple at a deserted California rest stop. It wasn't a very good film but the sequel manages to out do the original, rising to passable horror fare. Tom (Richard Tillman) is the brother of Jess who disappeared in the first film along with his girl friend Nicole. Home for two weeks on leave from the army, Tom decides to go in search of his missing sibling. He's joined for the ride by his girlfriend Marilyn (Jessie Ward) and his buddy Jared(Norris). Evidently, because Marilyn doesn't like Jared, the goof is forced to drive his own beater of a car from Texas to California.
We're treated to a replay of the "Driver's" origin. He was just a bumpkin picked up by a family of religious zealots (nuts actually) in their RV. He's killed but is resurrected as a silent spirit, haunting the highways around the rest stop for victims to torture and kill. It isn't long before the trio of friends is on his trail, tipped off by the creepy owner of a gas station (Steve Railsback). Jared is attacked while inside a port-a-potty as it is run into by the truck, spilling its disgusting contents all over him. Tom is then kidnapped by the Driver and taken to a torture chamber outfitted in an old school bus. With help from Nicole's ghost, Jared and Marilyn will try to find Tom and figure out a way to destroy the Driver once and for all.
Better than the original but still not a good film, Rest Stop: Don't Look Back is filled with inconsistencies. The Driver seems to have that annoying ability to appear and disappear at will which he uses to cheat his victims just when you think they've escaped and yet he seemingly leaves him self vulnerable. The main problem with the film is that the assailant just isn't all that scary or intimidating. He's a hillbilly in a flannel shirt and baseball cap and his attempts at a menacing glare are laughable.
Infinitely scarier and underutilized is the nutjob family in the RV. The sex-crazed mom, the fire and brimstone dad, the two kids in suits who never talk, and the dwarf son who is tormented by his older brothers. The sequel almost entirely abandons the rest stop where much of the action in the first film took place. There are only a couple of short scenes there and most of film takes place on the open road. There's a good deal of gore including victims getting their eyes scooped out, legs drilled into, and other assorted wince-inducing torments.
The cast is certainly better this time. Tillman and Ward give more convincing performances than their predecessors in the first film while Norris and Railsback provide some comic relief. Rest Stop: Don't Look Back isn't must viewing but if the video store pickings are slim you could certainly do worse.
Description of Rest Stop - Don't Look Back
No rest for the wicked! One year ago, the mysterious Rest Stop killer drilled, ripped and splattered young road trippers Jesse and Nicole. Now three more unsuspecting travelers come looking for the missing duo. And that means the killer gets to sharpen his horrific torture skills all over again ? only bloodier and scarier than before. He?s not alone, either. The Winnebago full of creepy living corpses is also back, roaming the old highway. And Jesse and Nicole?s brutalized ghosts seek revenge, determined to give as gory as they got. Watch if you dare. But whatever you do, Don?t Look Back!Bestsellers in DVD
