Don't Look Back

Synopsis

Deep in the countryside of a southern state of North America.

A young family are heading west: to a new home, a new job and a new beginning. But, during a brief stop at a roadside diner, a sinister presence joins them for the rest of the journey. As they head off into the storm charged night their worst nightmare is about to emerge.

Meanwhile at Uncle Max's Diner, Juliet, a young English girl travelling around America, is working the late shift. It's a typical night at the old highway stopover, full of the usual characters that enjoy the hospitality and taste of the 'good old US of A'.

However, this wouldn't turn out to be an ordinary evening for Juliet as the 'comings and goings' between staff and regulars is overshadowed by the arrival of a disturbing customer.

Here lies the setting to this chilling thriller based on a true and harrowing story.
