Goofs
When Sandra first trespasses in the power station to call on the phone for help which the phone line is busy, why didn't she shut off the power. It would've got the electrical workers to investigate the power outage and they would've sent a tow truck to help her out to save her trapped baby boy inside.

Quotes
Sandra: Hi um, thank god! I had an accident and my son is locked in the car I need help.
[the auto recording of the phone operator continues]
Sandra: No what? No no! Fuck!
[Sanda hits the power station phone and hangs up]

beautiful visuals of Utah geology

This movie has its issues but it also has entertainment value. If you enjoy endless vistas of desolate mountains then even if you don't care for the film itself, the heavy reliance on breathtaking shots of the multi-coloured Utah (likely the Paria mountains).

Beyond the geology and macho car, the kid is good and the hopeless terror of the protagonist is sometimes genuine, other times humorously not.
