- Synopsis
- Due to a string of uncanny accidents, Edward, a limo driver who is transporting a well-known Hollywood actress, runs down a wife who is standing on the side of a remote Nevada highway as her husband is repairing a flat tire. He rushes her to a nearby motel and attempts to get help, but there all the phone lines are down and the roads out flooded due to a rainstorm. Various others – a prostitute, a cop transporting a convicted killer, two newlywed teenagers – all contrive to gather at the motel during the storm. But then someone starts killing off the group, leaving a motel key that counts downwards from 10 beside each body. As the search intensifies to find which of the group is the killer, it becomes apparent that each of them has secrets to hide and that all of them being there is no coincidence. At the same time in Florida, a court hearing is hastily assembled in the middle of the night to hear new evidence as to the insanity plea of a mass murderer who is about to be executed the next day.

-
"Far and away the most original thriller to come out of a major studio in a long while"
-
"A slick, bloody thriller, but it's also, to its credit, a genuine whodunit"
-
"The movie is polished, well-acted and atmospheric, but still pure formula, and not very scary, either"
-
"What starts out as a seemingly-routine excursion into genre clichés emerges into a more complex and satisfying arena"
-
"Simultaneously a contrived piece of hokum and an absorbing, old-fashioned mystery"
-
"Fine escapist fare with a saving sense of humor"
-
"A fascinating movie that, if you are able to make the leap it asks of you at about the three-quarter mark, will give you something to think and talk about for days."
