    About this Episode

    What is transportation horror, you ask? Well, it's a subgenre of horror that Tracy and Minki give a proper name to in order to best describe movies that don't end well for people traveling by planes, trains or automobiles. And funny enough, it seems Ryuhei Kitamura, the director of this episode's film, just looooooves creating films which put unsuspecting victims on a road to their certain demise.

    This particular movie will take you back to your college days, where you hitch a ride with 5 other college students who you don't know at all but who all happen to live near your hometown for break... Oh, you never did that? Yeah, nobody does that. But, this movie paints a picture of what it would be like to be stuck on a desolate road with "stranger friends" as a sniper begins picking them off, one by one. Why is he doing this? Who is this human hunter? What does he have against these millennials? Maybe it's that he hates how they carry selfie sticks in their back pocket. Who knows? One thing is for sure: you will never get the answers to these questions. So, don't look for them on your ride through this semi-gory, thin-on-story, action horror. Just put it in neutral and prepare to coast through this implausible, yet somewhat satisfying, road trip of murder.

    Oh, and Tracy knows what she's talking about, because she just made another short film this past weekend. Total expert ;)
