Dead Man's Run (2001)
Very interesting and different film.
This is the most original story I've seen for an independent, low budget film. It is not just a suspense/thriller but also a psychological character study of the mentally disturbed kidnapper who holds two couples hostage. This guy is played by John Savage who once again gives a deep and believable performance. All the actors are good and the ending was a real surprise. An excellent little movie. The writer/director Robert J. Hyatt did a really good job of presenting his story. It is obviously professionally photographed, edited and the music score fits perfectly without being intrusive. Another stand out performance is Diana Barton as the greedy wife of the late Trevor Goddard. I'd like to see more of her in films. There are only five actors in the whole movie as our main focus and not a weak performance from any of them. Two thumbs up for this one. I highly recommend it.
