Horror Movie Month - Splinter (2008)

Splinter
The Stars - Shea Whigham (!!!), Paulo Costanzo, Jill Wagner, Rachel Kerbs
The Gist - A young couple (Costanzo and Wagner) set out for a romantic camping trip to celebrate their anniversary. Problems ensue and soon they are being held hostage by a sexy, badass escaped convict (Whigham) and his drug-addled girlfriend (Kerbs). When their car begins to overheat, they make a pit stop at a gas station in the middle of nowhere where they become trapped, surrounded and hunted by some sort of strange zombie-esque splinter parasite.
The Scares - There aren't really any... at all. Maybe it's because I don't scare easily, not sure, but there wasn't a single thing in the entire movie I found scary. That being said, the movie itself isn't bad. It's fast-paced and it's fun and the characters are actually pretty well-crafted and not at all as stupid as most characters in horror movies. Of course, Shea Whigham is super hot.
The Body Count - Only 4... but then, there are only really 6 people in the entire movie.
The Grade - C+
