Pick Me Up

Masters of Horror: Larry Cohen

(2006) ***

A tour bus breaks down in the middle of nowhere. One passenger walks off alone toward the motel, over 10 miles away. Two passengers hitch a ride with a trucker going to the trading post also over 10 miles away.

The bus driver and two remaining passengers stay with the bus and wait for help. Sounds all well and good until a couple of murderous psycho's decide that the passengers are fair game. They get into a raging duel over who gets to kill one of the victims.

Albeit entertaining, I found this episode to be very silly. Although I have to say I wasn't too surprised that the characters were characters, after all he is responsible for writing the It's Alive series. As with most of this series it falls in at that mediocre range as a good watch, but nothing great.
