The premise
On Christmas Eve, while driving to see his in-laws with his family, Frank Harrington decides to try a shortcut for the first time in 20 years. It turns out to be the biggest mistake of his life.
Horror Vault's take
A Christmas Eve road trip turns into a waking nightmare when patriarch Frank Harrington steers his squabbling family down an unfamiliar backroad — one that seems to have no end. As the dark forest closes in and strange encounters mount, the Harringtons begin to unravel in ways no holiday gathering could ever prepare them for. Low-budget but sharply focused, this French-American chiller wrings genuine dread from a deceptively simple premise, leaning hard on its committed cast to sell the escalating terror.
