Plot Synopsis
Storyline
For the past 20 years, Frank Harrington has grudgingly driven his family to celebrate Christmas with his mother-in-law. This year, he takes a shortcut. It's the biggest mistake of his life: The nightmare begins. A mysterious woman in white wanders through the forest, leaving death in her wake. A terrifying black car - its driver invisible - carries the victims into the heart of the night. Every road sign points to a destination they never reach. The survivors succumb to panic, to madness; deeply buried secrets burst to the surface, and Christmas turns into a living hell. Written by Anonymous

No need to waste time endlessly browsing—here's the entire lineup of new movies and TV shows streaming on Netflix this month.
Found this movie on Pluto TV during the Covid stay at home time. I was surprised how good it was! If you like "B" movie horror, you must check it out. It's suspenseful and has quite a bit of dark humor mixed in. I won't spoil it. Just watch it, you've got the time.
