Amusement
Shelby's (Laura Breckenridge) boyfriend Rob (Tad Hilgenbrink) is fascinated with the concept of being part of a convoy, so when the opportunity presents itself while they are on a road trip, he goes for it, despite having no idea who the other people are. Shelby sleeps intermittently while Tad drives but wakes enough to see a girl's face at the back of the semi they are following. Wait a minute, didn't he say he's alone? Tad tells her not to worry, but then a moment later, a girl's body is flung onto their windshield. Tad tries to get the trucker's plates as he tears off into the night, but worse is in store for them when Shelby is kidnapped.
Tabitha (Katheryn Winnick) agrees to watch her two young cousins, but oddly enough, when she arrives, the babysitter she expected to see is nowhere to be found. The boys assure her that the girl left, but they seem far too amused by the situation. Tabitha shrugs it off, but when she goes to the guest room where she'll be staying, she finds the clown motif a bit much. Especially the life-sized one in the rocking chair. When her aunt calls, she tells her how creepy it is, but her aunt is confused. She doesn't have a clown like that. Kidnap Victim #2.
Lisa (Jessica Lucas) doesn't believe her best friend Cat (Fernanda Dorogi) just went to a hotel with a random dude, that isn't like her. But when Lisa approaches the decrepit-looking place, she is informed that all the beds are taken. Concerned, she sends her boyfriend Dan (Reid Scott) to find out what's going on, using his authority with the health department. Hours later, he hasn't returned, so Lisa sneaks into the hotel herself.
*****SPOILERS******* I am going to spoil this because this movie is so bad, I'm going to save you the trouble of watching it. The three young women are all childhood friends who haven't seen each other in years. The guy behind all this mayhem and murder is another child they knew, one with a sick and twisted sense of humor that they never found funny. He calls himself The Laugh (Keir O'Donnell). He kidnaps the first two girls and sets them up in a pseudo diorama resembling one he did as a kid that they thought was sick (spoiler alert - it was).
The only people I recognize in this film are Katheryn Winnick, who played Lagertha in Vikings, and the psychiatrist played by Rena Owen, who was Helen in Siren. This movie looked like it was written by a child and was left over from a fever-riddled dream, only half remembered, and making no sense. It is horrible. Not scary, not creepy, just bad. The best thing about it was that it was only an hour and a half long. Even Katheryn Winnick can't save horrible. I'm going to give this film 1 Star, just for her, but I recommend you avoid it entirely.
