What's so great about Blood River, is that nothing is spelled out for the audience. Your hand is not held nor your steps guided through this plot.
The 'scary stuff' ranges from sexual tension and psychological torture to theological threats and simple fear of death by dehydration...
A road-tripping couple break-down in the Californian desert and are joined by a mysterious drifter who starts to create tension between them all. Moves along slowly and without much incident for the first hour, but a twist in the plot sets up a compelling last 30 minutes. Worth a watch but you'll need patience.

A mysterious drifter makes trouble for a young couple when their car breaks down in the desert. A very good performance by newcomer Andrew Howard as the cowboy prophet/supernatural serial killer makes this slightly talky, pseudo-religious horror film watchable.
