Aaron Powell returns home from the Naval Postgraduate School to his grandfather, a brilliant psychiatrist Lawrence. Dr. Powell and his colleague detective Roy Harris are investigating a recent suicide of a college professor Stephanie Hancock, who suffered of nightmares involved the infamous urban legends of Buckout Road. While they think she was mentally unstable, Mrs. Hancock's student Cleo Harris starts to show the same symptoms as she was working on an assignment about Buckout Road urban myth. Cleo and Aaron realizes that they have to solve the mystery of how to stop the evil before it takes their souls as well.
After a buzz worthy and award winning festival run, Buckout Road is finally released to the masses and I've been looking forward to this movie. I'm happy to say I was not disappointed! I loved the imagery in the film regarding the legends of Buckout Road, "the most haunted road in America." They were very creepy and effective and helped establish the eerie mythology that served as a strong backbone to the story. I got a late 90's teen horror flick feel from this one and that's just fine with me. Great performances, an intriguing story, effective costumes and cinematography all help make Buckout Road a fun midnight horror flick. And with all the legends left untapped there's plenty of room for a sequel.
