Reroute (2022)

Violent and extreme

A couple found themselves on a sinister refuge after their car malfunctioned while taking a long-distance route to their hometown. This film started off well, like a lot of road kill movies do but soon degenerated into extreme misogyny and violence with some really poor acting and tedious overly long scenes. Ok so it is a horror movie and we should be expecting violence and horror but the story itself could have been made in a 30 min short as it is just too long for its own good and soon becomes repetitive and perhaps it is the culture of the Philippines but it comes across as overly misogynistic and brutal for the sake of it and quite unpleasant which I am reliably informed by my Filipino female friends is actually quite an accurate portrayal of women's lives in the Philippines. If you are female I would especially avoid watching this as it is neither entertaining or interesting and could put you off a holiday there for life.
