Cre8iveone I'll go with 5 on this one, I don't think it's that bad of a watch, though it did lose me here and there and some of the flash-forwards and backwards threw me off in the way they're cut together. I do agree with others that this is a different role for Heigl and she doesn't do too bad at it. I'm not sure if she would take that as a compliment given the role, but I love seeing the diversity and you have to start somewhere, right :)? Why not Zyzzyx Rd? I guess I'm a little thrown by the different spellings of the road, since I believe the "other film" Zzyzx actually has it correct, which if that's the case, I'm not sure why they spelled the title of this film as they did. There's also the fact that the 2 apparently came out the same year. Nevertheless, this wasn't a bad watch and I would suggest it to folks who like the Horror/Suspense/Thriller thing.
nwedlock This film is awesome especially for those that like hanging on the edge of their seat! I was so surprised at the ending. I spoke with some friends who also watched it today and we all seem to pick up different things and have a different take on it. I plan to watch it again tonight on my computer while it's still streaming for free. It's definitely one of those movies that you have to watch more than once. I know each time I watch it I'm going to pick up something that I missed. I'm glad I ordered the DVD, which remarkably was only $5.After I watch it one more time, I'm going to come back and post a message where others who have seen it can give their opinions on what was going on. IF any of the filmmakers are on this board and care to give us some hints, that would be helpful! :o) Or perhaps they chose for us to draw our own conclusions.
amy-florom This film is great. It's fun to watch Heigl in a different role from normal. She's a great actress. Check it out - worth the time! Grillo and Sizemore are also great, Sizemore is an awesome villain. The storyline is very different - lots of twists and keeps you on your toes. Overall, it's a fun and exciting thriller/mystery. Zyzzyx Road is the actual name of a road in Las Vegas. The film has a funny history -- grossing $30 at the box office! That makes it the lowest grossing film of all time, but there's a lot more to it than that. It's an interesting story, look it up on Google some time. I think that its also in the trivia on this page. For the record, it is pronounced "Zizzix"
Claudio Carvalho The family man accountant Grant (Leo Grillo) travels to Los Angeles and meets the lascivious "Lolita" Marissa (Katherine Heigl) in a casino. While in the motel with Marissa, her violent ex-boyfriend Joey (Tom Sizemore) surprises them on the bed, hits Grant on the head, but he kills Joey. Grant brings Joey's body to bury in the desert Zyzzyx Road, but after digging a grave, he finds that the body is missing in the trunk of his car. Grant chases Joey with a shovel in the desert, and when he finds the man hidden in a abandoned mine, Joey discloses a secret about Marissa.I bought "Zyzzyx Rd" on DVD without any expectations and I really liked this low-budget movie. The story begins theatrical, claustrophobic and intriguing; there are two surprising twists and a tragic conclusion after disclosing the guilty complex of Grant. I like this type of films where screenplay, direction and performances prevail over a high budget and special effects. My vote is seven.Title (Brazil): "Estrada da Morte" ("Road of the Death")
