Reroute

I came to watch this movie completely not knowing the synopsis or concept. It seems like the typical indie film combining sex and violence but the director of the film managed to make a decent movie from a potentially generic script.

John Arcilla does a great job as a crazed ex soldier who terrorizes a stranded couple. I actually like his role here better than the one he portrayed in Erik Matti's On The Job: The Missing 8.

This was quite difficult to watch though and is not for the squeamish. It's pretty realistic, especially in its depiction of the sex scenes. To the director's credit, he was able to build enough suspense and tension. Some viewers may be put off by the pacing but a level of patience is required.
