The story focuses on Sawyer (Hermione Corfield), a college senior driving through the rural countryside on her way to a job interview when her malfunctioning GPS leads her to the middle of nowhere. Rust Creek is just such a film, slowly burning through its narrative threads until hitting bursts of gunpowder that spark explosions of revelation and dynamism, not exactly transcending the scope of its tropes but making the most of the characters that reside within them. You have a small cast of characters and a straightforward situation that leads a viewer to the conclusion that they know what they’re in for, but through clever writing and adept direction, that simplicity can be subverted into a tale that, if not complex, is at least a suspenseful deconstruction of our expectations. There are films that start off deceptively simple in their premise.
