Gripping horror/thriller that is a story in 2 parts
This film starts off as a paranormal horror film, a family apparently being haunted by strange forces, but suddenly turns completely around into something much more realistic, though still thrilling.
No spoilers given, but I loved the sudden twist and the "aaaaah" moment where the viewer realises what has been happening, as the first half is re-told from a different perspective.
The film builds to a gripping conclusion and has several more twists and surprises along the way, keeping the viewer guessing.
One gripe is the music - loud blaring horn used to build up tension becomes very annoying very quickly.

Taut thriller carried by Joseph Gordon Lovitt. Great sense of claustrophobia (0 more)
Not a lot of action (0 more)
This small film does a great job of quickly setting up the suspense as a plane gets hijacked and the crew try to fight them off. Just about the entire film is shot in the cockpit and the result is an addition of claustrophobia to the precedings. The movie doesn't really have a lot of action, but it maintains it's tense atmosphere throughout, and Lovitt does a great job carrying the film. The story isnt anything to write home about, but it does it's job and holds the movie together.

"This was the first thriller I ever saw—on our eleven-inch black-and-white TV set in the small living room of my parents’ home in the suburbs of Birmingham. It was the most romantic and exciting thing I had ever seen, and I can still get lost in it today. The 39 Steps is the blueprint for all the classic Hitchcock films that would follow. Sexy stars, fantastic locations, and quirky cliff-hanger scenes that you want to watch over and over. In this film, it is the Mr. Memory scene that I look forward to most, and every time I see it, it still makes me jump!"

Breakdown- is a intense dramatic suspense thriller.

The plot: On their cross-country drive, a married couple, Jeff (Kurt Russell) and Amy Taylor (Kathleen Quinlan), experience car trouble after an accident. Stranded in the New Mexico desert, the two catch a break when a passing truck driver, Red Barr (J.T. Walsh), offers to drive Amy to a nearby café to call for help. Meanwhile, Jeff is able to fix the car and make his way to the café, only to find his wife missing and Barr claiming ignorance. Jeff then begins a frenzied search for Amy.

I would recordmend watching this film.
