I love movies like this but I hate reviewing them - they must be seen and felt to be properly appreciated, and I never feel I do justice to my feelings on the page. I hope you reward these filmmakers by seeing this one.

As their quiet lives... The limits of friendship are put to the test when an accidental homicide snowballs into a series of grisly deaths amongst a group of twenty-somethings in a small town in Utah. As their quiet lives mutate into a surreal nightmare, the friends must put complete trust in each other as they plumb the murky depths of the age old mystery: how many corpses can fit into the trunk of a mid-sized sedan? A fun black comedy featuring a great young cast--Natasha Gregson Wagner, MacKenzie Astin, Todd Field, and Dina Meyer--and enough hair-raising twists to keep any honest pretzel maker happy. [More]
