Exit Speed

Exit Speed (2008) — watch online on iFILM — is a lean American action-thriller from director Scott Ziehl, starring Lea Thompson and Desmond Harrington. Ten strangers share a bus crossing Texas on Christmas Eve. A methhead biker gang runs them off the road in the middle of nowhere.

With no signal and nobody coming, the passengers hole up in a derelict scrap yard and turn a rout into a plan. The group is an unlikely mix — a soldier, a drifter, a few people with secrets — and the film wrings real tension from that confined space. Simple premise, no fat on it.
