2freensel I saw this movie before reading any reviews, and I thought it was very funny. I was very surprised to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews this film received from critics.

Gutsycurene Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

Sammy-Jo Cervantes There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Edwin The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Reno Rangan I watch B movies, but not that regularly. This was a direct-to-video film. I know nobody from it. At first it did not feel like I'm watching a film, but like someone who wanted to be a filmmaker is messing around with his camera. But it was not a matter, I got used to it, especially once the thrill part had started. It's an out and out thriller that is set in a remote place where a young woman was trapped by a mysterious killer. So her survival game begins, but the killer is always a step ahead. How long it can go like this and what happens at the end are the rest of the film to tell us.Those thriller parts were good for such a low cost film. But the screenplay was very very bad. It had a story, but there's no reason for it. Totally failed on that to give one. That's what people always expect at the end the film to explain. It was more like a silly random act, though most of the 'killing' films are similar. They have added a sex scene at the very beginning, knowing there won't be a place for it in the latter section. You can say it was unnecessary, but to bring more audience to the film to watch. I have seen even worse. So, for the attempt and for a couple of scenes it deserves some respect.3/10

utgard14 Girl (Jaimie Alexander) runs away from home with her douchebag boyfriend (Joey Mendicino). They stop at a remote rest stop along the highway. I'm not sure there really are rest stops like this one anywhere in the US. I've been across most of the country, admittedly more in the East than West, but I've never come across a rest area that was overgrown and isolated like this one while still being functional. Anyway, while there the boyfriend is kidnapped and the girl is terrorized by a crazy guy who drives around in a yellow truck. Then Joey freakin' Lawrence shows up and gives us the longest death scene in movie history. I swear it goes on forever. If you haven't seen him act since Blossom, believe me he hasn't gotten better. Overly familiar, full of clichés, plot holes, and bad acting, this is an awful movie that is difficult to finish. Jaimie Alexander is very pretty but her acting isn't that impressive. Particularly the scenes where she's alone and talking to herself in the bathroom. Still, she spends the climax of the movie running around in her bra, which I'm sure we're all grateful for. Oh, and look, this movie has a family of weirdos that figures into the plot. How original for a horror movie...in 1967. Avoid this garbage.

Gipsygirl K I don't know whats worst.... This film or the fact that i actually watched the whole Thing? Lol to my excuse i guess i had really bad insomnia!! It wasn't possible just to keep flipping trough channels at 1am, i was bored, OKBad acting, terrible plot, i mean i guess it could have been a lot better but they were lots of loose ends, unexplained sht n just crazy sht happening, period. also horrible ending! It made the whole fact of waiting for the ending even worst!!! Geez is like it wasn't enough that i watched it, i had to be reassured by the ending of my waste of time.Again, why did i watched this??? I guess i was thinking n hoping it was gonna get better n more exciting but the more i waited i was already watching the credits!

rainbowijij I just finished watching this. what a waste of time!!! Actually I didn't watch the complete movie, I couldn't stand it around an hour later and then I just fast forwarded and skipped some boring dialogs. The whole movie was totally NONSENSE!!!!!!! The ONE and ONLY important question about this movie: Why the heck didn't Nicole just walk for help?? She could have gone so far if she walks for help at the very beginning. I can understand that walking miles away and leaving boyfriend behind is not a good choice at the beginning. But after few hours she should leave there!!! The killer was NOBODY to this movie as I didn't know how he looks like. (I know just like The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, we didn't have to know how the killer actually looks like.) But what I mean is at least the killer should be a main character in the movie which I couldn't feel in Rest Stop. And what is that ghost thing? the girl named Tracy? obviously she was a ghost but what was the point to put her there? Speaking about the cop, it was all jokes. why didn't Nicole just pull the cop to the room next to her after he has been run over by the truck, and pulled him to the toilet instead? And the shooting scene, oh god, laugh out loud. and when the fire started, the cop was gone, where was his body? so many questions in my head now... I won't recommend this to anyone, even huge horror fans...
