3-Minute Chiller
shazd13 May 2006
Washington Road is great for what it is. This 3-Minute Chiller was part of a contest to be the best of a whole heap of 3-Minute Chillers, which in my opinion, and the opinion of many others, it was. The movie passed with flying colours, as it should have.

I enjoyed the "other side of the lens" atmosphere provided, and I have to admit, this film covers a lot of ground in only 3 minutes. Several different POVs, atmospheric shots, love, violence, comedy, this flick has it all.

This film is a great sample of Wickham work. I've heard some stories circulating about the back-story of this movie, how it's possibly not sex they're talking about in the car. I imagine this film could actually be a scene in a much larger piece, and perhaps it is. Maybe one day we'll see a Terry Wickham movie involving this scene.

Great work, Mr Wickham, I hope to see more of you in the future.

Parody at it's best

Spoofing the old 1950's type horror film with the boy and girl in the car on a lonely road scenario director Terry Wickham makes his mark. Actor Danny Hayden certainly reminded me of every actor from those early films. Good looking with a sort of innocent appearance. What at first looks to be the same tired plot rehashed from aforementioned films, this film does a complete 180. A touch of a chiller, a touch of humor. It's hard to believe that all this was packed into a mere three minutes. One might even say it had a touch of Rod Serling. All in all this was a great thriller with a twist at the end. The award it won was well deserved. Can't wait to see more of what this director has to offer. And much more of Danny Hayden.
