Sarah Michelle Gellar

The film opens with Sam Shepard singing, "I wish I were a mole in the ground." Then a child’s voice asks, "Why would you want to be a mole in the ground?"

And this is the part of the film that makes sense.

But heck, if you can get past Sarah Michelle Gellar as a savvy sales rep for some kind of trucking concern and the loose way she drifts through the film (you know, just like all the other salespeople you come across, right?), you might buy her as a troubled young woman trying to figure out why strange things have been happening to her most of her life. It’s just all so terribly vague.

There’s a bunch of typical horror tropes: dark highway at night, the song on the radio that keeps playing even if you switch stations and turn it off, the creepy green car, etc. But it’s not so much horror as mystery: Why are the conversations so pointless? Why does Gellar keep stabbing herself? Why is Sam Shepard in this movie?

But then, after all this pointless meandering, something becomes clear: You, too, will wish you were a mole in the ground...just so you wouldn’t have to watch this ever again.
