Road Kill (Road Train)

(2010) ***1/2

I enjoyed this action horror movie. Though I have a tough time understanding British and Aussie accents, it was worth my time.

Ok, so these four 20-something year old Aussies are driving cross country when they notice something they call a "road train". Its pretty much an 18 wheeler with a 10 wheeler attatched. They get all giddy when it catches up to them and start making the trucking arm movement (horn-honking). All is fun until they decide to not let the truck pass, then there is a passing game going on until the big bang!

Their jeep gets flipped over leaving them stranded. They see that the truck is stopped up ahead and decide to go investigate....ya think thats a good idea, especially if you see this on the hood??


Well, the kiddies get what's coming to them with a really good supernatural horror twist! It reminded me of Duel in the beginning, then developed into the great movie it is. It even has an awesome crash scene towards the end!
