Road trip that goes nowhere ........
merklekranz16 July 2010
Annabelle Larsen is never convincing as a blind woman who leads three doofuses on a meandering road trip, after they pick her up hitchhiking. The four main characters are developed, but highly uninteresting. Along the way to a North Carolina destination there are various trysts and an awful lot of meaningless dialog. The mysterious female hitchhiker eventually manipulates the group to the outer banks. After more tedious discussion about metaphysical nonsense the film eventually tips over into ridiculous conclusion land, with an ending that seems like it belongs in a completely different movie. The film has full frontal nudity......... - MERK

strange B Noir
baese5 April 1999
A young couple pick up an attractive young woman hitch-hiking in North Carolina. They soon notice that she is blind {she hides this fact quite well}! She leads the couple on an odyssey through the outer banks area including Ocracoke and another island. Her reason for the search is gradually revealed through flashbacks. While straining credulity this low budget somewhat amateurish film noir has its moments. The on -location photography adds a good deal to the strange ethereal quality of the film.The ending is sufficiently bizarre.

What you can't see won't hurt ya

When I saw this movie, I said to myself, this movie ought to be good. And I was right, this movie is good. This movie is close to "Deliverance", without all the heavy drama. Picking up a blind hitchhiker isn't really a threat, right? Well, how can I say it. It's really kind of creepy about having a blind companion along for the ride. One thing I can think of if she's a pickpocket. The one thing I found funny about this movie is when they took the guy's pick-up truck while he was alleviating his "friend". The funnier part is when he zipped it up. OUCH! That will make anyone feel two things, Pain and Hilarity. But most of the time, knowing about the person they picked up/will be just left unsaid to the out of town vacationers. Well just to put it in my final words, this movie should be labeled a mystery instead of a drama. Even though there are a lot of thrills to go by in this movie. The best way to understand the movie is to see it for yourself. Rating 4.5 out of 5 stars.
