Road Train (2010)


Road Train (2010)
Dir- Dean Francis

Four young adults on a camping trip in the Australian outback encounter a menacing semi-truck that forces them off the road after trying to outrun it. Soon after, they find the rig without the driver but soon learn that something evil is in control. Road Train is an Australian thriller directed by Dean Francis and starring Bob Morley, Sophie Lowe, Georgina Lowe, and Xavier Samuel. The film starts off with a great premise but is bogged down by a lackluster story that loses focus as it tries to spin a supernatural tale that does not work. While the film could have been a decent thriller along the lines of the 1970s classic film Duel, it does not have the right direction. One of a number of Austrian set horror films that have come out in the past decade, Road Train is not among the better films from the land down under.
