action

The doctor Dr. Douglas Madsen becomes entangled on the way to work through no fault in a car accident with twelve criminals on a prisoner transport in a maximum security prison were. Four of them can escape. They disarm the guards and kill some police officers. Since one of the inmates injured his arm, the doctor is taken hostage for treatment. Now the five are on their way to the Canadian border . The gangsters flee across the border and find an old house. That night, the residents turn out to be monsters who decimate the gangsters. No one escapes except Douglas.

He is later interrogated, and on the way to prison there is another accident at the same point with five surviving inmates - including Dr. Madsen. The same thing happens again, and only he and Alice - one of the monsters - survive. In the end, Dr. Madsen was fatally wounded in another prisoner transport accident on the same street. Alice is shot by one of the inmates, and it is heard that these inmates also want to go north again.

Shortly after she dies, she wakes up as a monster.

criticism

"Inexpensive mixture of thriller and splatter horror film that is content with the usual bloodbaths."
