Supernatural terror and spine-tingling suspense highlight this gripping journey into fear. When Cami orders a taxi service to take her to her father's country home, she's hoping for a quiet and uneventful ride. But a wrong turn by Spencer, her chatty driver, results in the car stalling on a dark and remote road. After several threatening and inexplicable occurrences, Cami and Spencer realize they are being watched--by an unseen presence that sees them as trespassers, and is ready to exact a deadly toll.

Even at a sparse 80 minutes, the build of the tension and set-up of Cami and Spencer's mistrusting relationship is too extended. If the film is asking asking you to pay it in time, the return on investment may seem a little low.

The toll to be collected here is 80 minutes of your time. The most terrifying thing you can do is pay it.

Michael Nader keeps it lean and mean for his first horror feature, and the result is a creepy winner.

The Toll feels like it wants to make a point about women surviving in a world that’s designed to hurt them, but ultimately it just asks them to keep accepting the hurt in the name of entertainment.

The intro is tense and suspenseful, but by the end it’s inability to sell or even explain its big baddie left me questioning the point of the entire second half.

The Toll keeps getting more silly and second-hand, until it springs a late "twist" which haplessly undermines the logic of most character behavior before it.

As a fan of horror in all its forms, including B-movies, I found the premise interesting and the intentions commendable. Unfortunately, its technical shortcomings are hard to overlook. The screenplay is riddled with inconsistencies that often become unintentionally laughable, while the performances rarely manage to elevate the material. If a film aims to be ambitious or pretentious in its themes and message, it should at least pay closer attention to fundamental elements such as the writing, direction, and acting.

A premissa de um motorista de aplicativo ser um bandido em plena madrugada é bem atual e interessante. Se o roteiro tivesse abordado isso de forma mais firme e menos fantasiosa certamente teríamos outro tipo de filme e sua qualidade provavelmente seria melhorada. Uma pena.

Jordan Hayes and Max Topplin are okay in this passable horror flick. It’s not particularly scary, but it does have an interesting premise. Thankfully, at a touch over 80 minutes, you won’t have wasted much time on this once you get to the end and discover you really wish you could have that time back again.
