Soon after leaving her fiancé Michelle is involved in a car accident. She awakens to find herself sharing an underground bunker with Howard and Emmett. Has she been saved from an apocalyptical event as Howard & Emmett tell her or are there other motives for her being held against her will?
John Goodman's character had a radio in the bunker that he stated had no transmissions (stating everyone was dead), yet when the main character escapes, on her car radio she hears all about the war against fighting the aliens.
CORRECTION: *There is no evidence to suggest that Howard even tries his radio in the bunker, and also noted by another contributor - His radio is a VHF radio that would normally pick up emergency broadcasts.
However, Towards the end of the film, Michelle hears a broadcast on an AM Radio - Howards Radio WOULD NOT have been able to receive this signal.
In addition, it is always very unclear as to Howard's motives, If he is keeping Michelle Hostage - Why would he tell her the Radio works???* See more »
Quotes
Michelle:
[to Howard, about using the toilet]
I... I can't go with you standing right here!
Howard:
Look, I'm not some pervert! Just go!... Don't flush until you've gone. Flushing wastes water.

I love the film and am trying to figure out how to write a review without giving anything away.
A woman on the road at night is suddenly in an accident. When she wakes up you immediately start wondering what direction this film could go in. It could go down several different paths. You think you've got it all figured out. Based upon what you are seeing, there really is no other way to go. Wrong.
At some point things seem to settle into some harmonious normalcy but then things get ugly and disturbing. Always were a bit disturbing but more ominous.
The acting is excellent by everyone, the twists and turns very good especially since these three characters are in an underground bunker. It is edge of your seat, leaning forward intensity. A wild ride for sure. Check it out!
