filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
g404c Dead Silence is a film that is hard to watch, but I kept on watching anyway. Three girls (played by Carrie Mitchum, Renee Estevez, and Lisanne Falk) go on spring break to Palm Springs, and they accidentally run down a homeless drifter in the middle of the desert.The girls have different ideas on what to do about their predicament, and how they proceed will test their friendship and ultimately affect it forever.This movie has a solid plot, great score, and great locations. Estevez, Falk, and Mitchum give equally powerful performances, and the ending is one I did not expect at all. See this one. 10/10
helpless_dancer When 3 feisty college girls go to Fort Lauderdale for fun in the sun they become involved in the death of a drifter due to their own stupidity. For months after they try to go on as usual but events go against them until they are forced to make a decision in which they lose either way. A very enjoyable film with a satisfying ending.
Glenn Cameron Very good as far as TV movies go, actors put in a good performance to allow some depth to their characters, interesting plot all making an interesting viewing experience. The three girls develop the "teens face awful dilemma" line, when on a spring break they run down a stranger after a drunken party. Expedient decisions are made with the moral dilemmas and inevitable consequential mistakes forming the basis for the rest of the film.
Nancy-40 3 girls hit a man on a dark road, they don't know what to do, thier scared because they had been drinking so they hide the body and drive away. The movie shows how each of them deal with what they did and eventually the body is found and one girl who is a new reporter has to report on the story and she begins to slightly give away she knows something, and the 3 begin to get scared and trying to deal. Its a very good portrayal, its got a good but sad ending, they eventually turn on each other and it ends with the truth coming out and the movie shows what they do when people find out and 1 does the right thing but winds up hurting everyone by doing the right thing, its a very good sad movie.
