Long Day's Journey Into Night" | Jack Bender | John Griffin | February 20, 2022 | ||
On a cross-country drive, the Matthews family, consisting of father Jim, mother Tabitha, and children Julie and Ethan, take a detour off the highway and find themselves in a small town. The local sheriff, Boyd, instructs them to follow the road to return to the highway. When the Matthews family continues to drive in their RV, they instead find themselves looping back to the town repeatedly until they encounter another car that runs them off the road. The townspeople arrive to help, bringing the passengers of the other car, Tobey and Jade, back to town, while Boyd and the town doctor Kristi decide to stay in the overturned RV with Jim to stay with Ethan, who is immobile with a serious leg wound. Tobey is later murdered in the clinic by a resident, Sara. On the way back into town, the car driven by deputy Kenny runs over a spike strip that was left on the road for the RV, prompting Kenny, Tabitha, Julie, the town priest Father Khatri, Jade, and Boyd's estranged son Ellis to run for the "Colony House" on foot before dark. Back in the RV, as night falls, strangers approach the vehicle. |
