Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

ROUTE 666 is an engaging little zombie B-movie from William Wesley, the director who brought us SCARECROWS back in the 1980s. This one's very similar and the story's quartet of zombies are even reminiscent of the straw-filled scaries in his debut feature. Although low budget, this film's a lot of fun thanks to some clever photography in the zombie scenes, an eeriely isolated desert setting, and a solid performance from Lou Diamond Phillips as the hero of the hour. TANK GIRL's Lori Petty adds sass in support, but the real ace in the deck is the great Steven Williams, who has been hugely entertaining in everything I've seen him in and who continues to be so here. The film isn't exactly scary but it feels fresh and engaging in a similar way to a film like RETROACTIVE, and the action scenes are a lot of fun.

Filmed on location in Joshua Tree, California, this exceptional horror film is an intelligent and moving story of surprising power. Skilfully directed and well written, the tension and suspense mounts quickly as federal marshals transport a prisoner across the barren wastes of the Southwestern U.S. With shocking intensity, supernatural forces mysteriously disrupt the journey and leave the group fighting for their very lives. The performances are nothing less than superb, with Lori Petty very effective in her role as a female agent and Lou Diamond Phillips, giving his best performance in years and almost as poignant as his work in the series Longmire. Seldom in this genre are characters developed so richly. What sets this film apart as a horror movie is the touching moments involving Phillips and his father, a man he lost in childhood in the most tragic circumstances but with whom he still has strong connections. The cinematography is also beautifully done as it captures the magnificent vistas and colorful rock formations around which the action unfolds. The thrills are unrelenting and the terror overwhelming throughout, with a shattering climax that will leave audience members emotionally drained. A motion picture that viewers will find terrifying, moving, and deeply satisfying.

Come on, give me a break. You see Route 666 on the sign and you turn down that road? Nobody, even if they are trying to save time, would get on a road with that name. You are just asking for trouble, and the folks in this ghost story got what they asked for.I like Lou Diamond Phillips, even if he'll always be Ritchie Valens to me. I also like Lori Petty and L.Q. Jones. They both keep popping up in movies and TV shows. In fact, the cast in this film has done a lot of work, so maybe you'll find someone you like.I certainly don't have high expectations when I watch a "B" movie, but I hoped to be entertained. This film did that. Sure, you get the same tired clichés and some people tend to act like jerks (Dale Midkiff), but the ghost aspect was pretty cool, and added to the horrible deaths.Give it a whirl if you have nothing else to watch.

Well,Judging by the comments people either love this movie or hate it with a passion(though I really cant see why) Okay its not Shakespeare but its one hell of a fun flick to watch in my opinion,from Lou diamond doing his eery Native American vibe ala Young guns,to Steven Williams cracking in jokes to Lou and Lori halfway through that will not be lost on x-file fans in the know .Personally I found the camera movement when the prisoners attacked pretty cool,Although I can see how some people partial to sea sickness may be put out. Basically the film is well structured action and Classic One liners from start to finish. Hats off to the costume designers to everyone just basically looks cool. hell the film is cool .Highly Recommended
