A psychological road-thriller, mixed with exploitation elements and the voice used to dub David Hess laughs like Elmer Fudd... That last detail is a good indication for how silly the film is at moments. I can't say it never works, the psychological warfare comes off pretty good at times, but overall the plot is too contrived and the characters / actors fail to get the right mood across - it basically gets stuck in the b-movie exploitation genre. Nothing wrong with the latter in itself, but the obvious intentions to get the audience thinking about all kinds of issues did hardly work for me.
The part where Adam is left for dead and right after, a mysterious big truck turns up trying to run them off the road and everyone is going "What the hell does he want?!", supposedly not having a clue as to who that might be, is a particular low, apart from the fact that it is a poor attempt at a twist and it's just a rip-off from 'Duel'. The twist(s) at the end didn't work well either, particularly because Eve, having suffered the most in all of what went on before, should have come out on top. But also it feels way too contrived.
Just don't expect too much and you'll be able to enjoy some pretty neat camera-work, some okay action, a little gore, some fine nudity and some okay acting (voice-dubbing is pretty much always a problem there).
