Actuakers One of my all time favorites.

Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
NateWatchesCoolMovies Hush is a pulverizing little exercise in extreme suspense. I'm not talking about this year's Hush, a sleek little home invasion shocker that's worth your time too. No, this Hush is a little seen British flick from back in 2008, and it's a proper nerve jangler. In the tradition of Duel, The Hitcher, Joyride and others, it takes place on a bustling motorway somewhere in great Britain. A young couple trundle through the night on a highway, and find themselves behind a great big creepy semi truck. In one split second, the doors of it's trailer come unstuck and open just a crack, allowing the to see what's inside. It's only a glimpse, but it's unmistakable: a girl, badly hurt and tied up, screams for help before the motion of the vehicle causes the doors to slam shut again. What would you do? This couple bravely pursues the truck and it's villainous driver across many miles of road, trying to rescue the girl inside, avoid getting killed themselves and put an end to whatever is going on. It's one merciless ride into gut churning suspense, and I marvelled at the film's ability to keep such high tension up for a streamlined ninety minutes of pure horror nirvana. It's not too lengthy, never sags or drags and always keeps the vibe as taut as the ominous chain holding those truck doors in place. Swift and sensible in resolution, stylish as all hell and scary in spades. Any horror fan owes it to themselves to take a look.
Raul Faust Movies involving a psycho chasing an innocent guy have been around since the very nineties, and I had my doubts that "Hush" could be somehow an addition to the genre. After some months of searching for the original DVD, I found it on a local website and bought it myself. One thing very peculiar about this film is how the chasing is made; in this case, the innocent man (Zakes) is who follows the lunatic, in order to save his (ex?)-girlfriend. From this point on, the movie reveals to be pretty original in many scenes and circumstances, supported by a professional cast. I just don't understand why English movies tend to portray themselves as rude people, but deep inside I'm positive they're not. The bad aspects about the picture is directing, which is too shaky in some scenes, and the over-the-top plan that the killer builds, which is hard to believe being done in real life. The last fifteen minutes work like a cat and mouse game, remembering some scenes of 2008's "The Strangers", which isn't particularly a problem, but a positive resemblance. Also, I consider it to be in the same level as 2001's "Joy Ride". All in all, this is a good movie, to be honest, and a reason why we should recognize some talent in British productions.
jaypauldini-730-559479 this film is a gem, i found it by accident,its about a man who is having problems with his relationship, and one night whilst doing his job or posting posters in motorway service stations , he sees a crime and wonders what to do, then gets drawn into it all. I thought it was gripping, towards the end i was shouting at the telly ''don't go in there'' haha, there were no really daft decisions made by the main character 'zakes' .lots of twists that i didn't see coming. All the negative reviews seem to be by people who think all thrillers have to be like 'frantic'. One even complained about the accents of the actors, they were speaking 'english' lol if you like excitement, suspense, thrills and twists, then this is the film for you
Tom Erik Høiås better than expected British thriller about a mad man in a truck abducting girls. Zakes Abbot discovers this one night when he drive behind the Psycho's truck. is it better to leave it be? or get involved? hell soon find out the consequences of his decision. the last 20 minutes of the film , i found myself yelling at the screen saying "be quiet", "stupid woman" and "moronic dog". decent acting by the lead and superbly directing for first timer Mark Tonderai. the film could have easily be 30 minutes longer, especially since there was a few questions i wanted answered. the lack of these answers is the only reason i gave "Hush" a 7 in stead of an 8.
