Quick Review: No Through Road (2009)

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1337671/
"The serenity of another quiet evening is shattered for an amateur photographer when a desperate woman takes refuge in his humble suburban home. Reluctantly, he is pulled into a cat and mouse game with her pursuers. Only dawn will reveal the blood-soaked fallout of being alone in the middle of suburbia."

What a moronic movie. A geek comes home from work one night to find a skanky junkie chick hiding in his closet. Call the Cops, right? Nope. Let her stay for a while because she needs to hide, although she won't tell you why. When a group of rapey looking guys show up and demand the geek hand over the girl, still don't call the Cops... call an ex-Cop friend of your Dad's to come help instead, pussy.

Idiot.
  • Makes perfect sense for the ex-Cop to play football with the rapists. Perfect sense, I say. 
  •  When a guy caves the ex-Cop's head in, still don't call the real Cops. Nice job getting your family friend killed, nitwit. 
  • Let's booby-trap the house, not call the Cops
  • Also, sit with your back to the bay window. 
  • Wait... blaring Heavy Metal and one shining a bright light will scare them off! 
  • By the time the rapey guys caught the main character, I was rooting for them to torture his poorly-written ass. Whatever this movie was aiming for, it failed.

Idiot!
How this movie won any sort of Indie Awards, I'll never know. Waste your time on this maddening mess of a movie if you like, but really, life is way too short to endure crap like this. Unless you like pain. Then, endure this movie.
