One year after couple Jesse (Joey Mendicino) and Nicole (Julie Mond) disappeared, Jesse's brother, Tom (Richard Tillman), asks his friends (Jessie Ward, Graham Norris) to join him on a search for his brother. On the way, they stumble upon the same isolated Rest Stop that Jesse and Nicole were brutalized. Unfortunately for Tom and his friends, the yellow-truck-driving madman still haunts the roadside looking for victims. . . and they're next on his route. While not a fan of the below-average first (simply Rest Stop), I decided to give Rest Stop: Don't Look Back a fair chance. In the first film, an average idea (a couple gets stranded at an isolated rest stop and a crazed killer stalks them down) is ruined by an impossible twist (and you thought Haute Tension's was unbelievable), subpar performances by actors we've seen do better, and a script so contrived my head was pounding in annoyance. So, the sequel came out with a LOT of ground to make up if it wanted to be even worth a passing glance. One major thing holds back the sequel before even it even begins: there's not a lot you can do at a rest stop. The first didn't do too much, but I think it took advantage of the few things possible at a bathroom. Therefore, as Rest Stop: Don't Look Back progressed, it felt kind of like Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning in comparison to the remake. . . the same subject matter with just a couple twists in the plot and different characters. That's not a very good thing. A subpar first doesn't warrant a sequel to begin with, but if a sequel MUST be made, do something special with it! Surprise your audience, give us something new, give us a reason to say, "I'm glad I picked that up." Do NOT, under any circumstance, feed us the same trite garbage you gave us in the first. This is all where this sequel failed. Well, there. . . and with the horrendous script, the stiff and unrealistic acting, horrible story progression and pacing, and dizzying camera-work. I won't completely put it off as terrible, however, as there was some good gore and violence, much more than what I remember from the first. Unfortunately, we missed some of the best violence (eye gouging and the like) due to scene cutaways, but I attribute that to a low budget. The gore wasn't enough to save the film, however, and it ends up being just as lame, predictable (and somehow ridiculous), and forgettable as the original. Final verdict: 3.75/10.

It has been a year since Jess and Nicole went missing at a rundown rest stop on California's Old Highway. Jess' brother Tom(Richard Tillman), a soldier back from Iraq and his girlfriend Marilyn(Jessie Ward)and an idiot pal Jared(Graham Norris)go searching for the missing lovers. They just so happen find the same rest stop. Same mysterious pickup driver and Winnebago carrying a family of living corpses. I can't say this doesn't meet expectations. We get some answers from the first trip and it looks like there is a strange reason to make a third road trip. Violence is gruesome, maybe even more than the first horrific events. Its hard to really care for the characters in peril. The cast includes: Brionne Davis, Julie Mond, Joey Mendicino and Diane Louise Salinger.

One year after his brother and girlfriend disappeared, Tom (Richard Tillman) and his girlfriend Marilyn (Jessie Ward) decide to go to California to find them. Tom's geeky friend Jared (Graham Norris) travels with them. The same guy who killed his brother is still haunting the highway, and finds and tortures the new breed of travelers, and also returning is the RV filled with the walking corpses. This movie reminds me of "Joy Ride 2"...another needless sequel with subpar acting, story, and effects. Nothing that distinguishes itself from being memorable, and something that will easily be forgotten.

To say that this movie was not as good as the first and then say not bad, indicates that the first had some redeeming value to it all. Let me assure you. This one is better then the first, but thats like saying poo w/ peanuts is better then plain poo. It is completely predictable and the characters are about as likable as a string of small pox. Making the same stoopid mistakes that horror characters have done for the past 50 years. You would think that given the fact that this movie happens in present day the characters would at least acknowledge.."Hey we are dealing with spooky bad people. What happens to people who take they're eyes off the ghost or when we send someone to get something, by themselves? oh right....we get effed real good." Its bad enough that these characters are complete underdogs in this flick. At least try and make it interesting by having them make educated choices. At least make the lopsided fight somewhat interesting. Nope not this poop with peanuts of a movie. There is so much more to get into with this 88 minute waste of time. I just feel as though if I spend any more time on it then the "Driver" has claimed too much of my life as well. My rating for this flick....I give it an "A-holes" Means avoid this movie. If you have to choose between this and Wrong Turn 2...go with Wrong Turn 2. At least then you get Corn and Peanuts.

The first Rest Stop is cinema at it's worst, so when the sequel came along, I expected the same thing, horror trying to be art. Well, to say least, I was a little surprised. The story follows the brother of the man killed in the first part, he decides to go to California to look for his brother and his girlfriend. He brings his girlfriend and geeky friend. Soon, the come upon the rest stop where the two people perished, and soon the same supernatural crap that happened in the first one starts happening to them. First of all, this film actually wallows in the supernatural crap, so it's not annoying or confusing like in the first. The acting is nothing to scream about, it's not horrible. And while the story is still stupid and confusing (not to mention full of plot holes) it's still entertaining to a certain degree. In the end, you can skip it, unless you REALLY loved the first.

I disagree with Mr. Schmitt in most things. First, the casting. Tom Hilts (Richard Tilman) wasn't overly likable, but he wasn't playing a care bear. I did like him and found myself routing for him and his quest. He channeled some real emotion and I definitely felt his pain. Jared (Graham Norris) was perfect as the dorky side kick, and I found him to be quite likable. Although I'm not sure he was supposed to be, I found him quite hilarious. The girlfriend Marilyn (Jessie Ward) wasn't a good hot chick, she is better described as the average chick, who was so annoying i found myself wishing she'd die a horribly painful and bloody death after the first 20 minutes. It did help ease the pain of her horrendous acting that she showed her boobies, although I'm pretty sure they're fake, so I deduct two points. Final score: Tilman 7.5, Norris 8, Ward 4.2. Torture and blood have always and will always be a necessary staple in the horror genre. There was nothing boring about the torture scenes in this movie, in fact, I'd say those scenes are what make the movie worth watching. Kudos to the make up artists. Could have used more * and hotter ladies. Also, the movie could have used more of the trailer family as they are the creepiest part, but I liked that they explained the back story on the driver and how it all began. The dialog is sub par and gets a bit cheesy, which is probably why some of the acting is also sub par, but that is to be expected with this type of movie. Overall, I would recommend it to anyone who likes a good horror flick.

This follow up for the original "Rest Stop" is fast paced, entertaining, humorous (Jared taking a crap and being ambushed by a truck by later getting a crap shower! in the likes of "Slumdog Millonaire" or the having sex with a ghost scene), and gory at some points. The plot twist that worked in the original tries to repeat the success in this sequel but it didn't make an impact at all. The whole explanation towards the legend of death is pretty interesting and gruesome if you take in account the opening murder. The creepy twins, the midget, the sexual sadistic mother, and the preacher; now that's material for a b-direct to video sequel. The gore is just good and it's all about eye gouging and stabbings. The acting is just regular by the standards of these kind of movies. The lead actress is pure hotness! Most of the characters are likable, heck even Jared. I liked how it kept connected with the events of the original.The "ends here" line was pure gold and gave a darker tone to the movie. Watch it if you're fan of direct to video horror. It has the "b" feeling all over it. The ending left me wondering "what the hell?!". And I'm sure a sequel is on it's way. But for the better it should "ends here".
