Like <I>Revenge</i> and <I>Wolf Creek</i> before it, <I>Blood Star</i> drives us through a terrifying game of cat-and-mouse while not stepping on the brakes to ensure that we're given a thrilling ride.
It's an exciting ride as a violent Sherriff, known for being a hard-ass in his jurisdiction, taunts outsiders by charging them for offenses they didn't commit while confiscating their items to keep them involved with his sick and twisted games. However, the actions of the characters can't go unnoticed. There are moments where you want to punch the screen because of many of the dumb decisions our main character makes, which she then ultimately pays for in the end.
Still, <I>Blood Star</i> is worth a watch. It's a nail-biting thriller as the cool and collected Sherriff, who has a grip on the small town he oversees, preys upon unsuspecting women who travel through his area. There are a few questionable moments, but the final ten minutes with make you squirm.
<B>Final thoughts</b>:
Worth a ride, but, next time, book a flight.
