I don’t know why, but for some reason I love the title FIVE ACROSS THE EYES. Sounds kinda like a Dario Argento flick, doesn’t it? (In the context of this movie, “the Eyes” is an ominous road.)
Well half-cover them peepers as Bloody Disgusting is giving us the poster, as well as a peek at the trailer, which looks a bit like JOYRIDE meets THE DESCENT.
The headlight-centric plot goes like this:
Five girls face the ultimate experience of terror on the way back from a football game. Finding themselves lost, they stop at a desolate store to find directions, but unfortunately instead are involved in a hit and run leaving the driver of an SUV one headlight short. Inexperienced and frightened the girls flee the accident and speed away down the dark and unfamiliar roads. Shortly they are joined on their blind journey by the pursuit of the one lone headlight, an event that will scar them for life; one mistake made while lost will cost them their innocence and possibly their lives.
So naturally, “five across the eyes!” Click it HERE for a look at the trailer and some clips as well.
