Movie Info

Seven friends from Sacramento California all decide to go on a documented trip to Las Vegas. All seems fun until they hit a detour/road block. A couple hours of lost driving later, both of the back tires on the truck are blown out! After some moments of confusion and arguing, the gang comes up with the plan that all the girls will stay inside the truck while all the guys walk down the road to find HELP. A couple miles down the road, the guys find a little gas station Diner/Motel, run by the most friendly, polite and "helpful" people. It appears that their problems are solved, but boy are they wrong! When convinced by "The Helpers" to stay overnight, the friends all wake up in their rooms to a new kind of gruesome and bloody terror! (c) Official Site

Critic Reviews for The Helpers

All Critics (1) | Rotten (1)

motel-set torture shocker The Helpers goes efficiently enough through the routines it borrows from Psycho, Vacancy, Wrong Turn and Saw, without ever really finding its own voice.
