This title is hard to find and I was only able to see it by purchasing it through Amazon.com. It is a faithful Remake of the 1945 Detour and even uses black and white at times to convey the film noir feel. The movie was obviously made on a low budget and at times the production and acting show it. The film was entertaining though and Lea Lavish was excellent as the cynical Vera and Tom Neal Jr. was good in reprising the role that made his father famous.The dialogue is corney as is the voice over at times, but the original is the same. For fans of the original film, this remake is an interesting throw back to classic noir films. Unlike the horrid remake of D.O.A., this film does not try to modernize the original, but rather tries to faithfully recreate the period and feel of the original. If you come across it give it a chance.
