Young couple Zakes and Beth are fighting constantly while they travel down the desolate M1 highway. After they spot or think they spot an hysterical woman chained in the back of a truck that almost runs them over, Zakes calls the cops and considers his work done. Beth wants to track the truck down and is so angry when Zakes refuses that she storms off at the next pit stop. When Beth doesn t return, Zakes realizes she too has been captured and plunges into a terrifying high-speed cat and mouse game on the highway. Can Zakes cut off the ruthless trucker or will the mysterious maniac manage to deliver his human cargo to its final, terrifying destination? (texte officiel du distributeur)

Another small, low-key British horror thriller and a very good and tense one at that. It’s closest to Anderson’s Joy Ride (the mystery surrounding the character of the dangerous driver is similar), but to give a better idea, I would also compare it to the first story of the recent Amusement, though I should also mention that Hush is the film I liked the most. The atmosphere builds up nicely and, even though it uses horror motifs seen many times over (a chase among crates…), it works brilliantly and the climax (said chase among crates) actually made me feel scared. The only problem it has is the awful British accent that made me doubt the mental soundness of the protagonist.
