Hang on tight for a suspense-filled action-thriller starring Oscar-winner Meryl Streep in a stunning performance that will take your breath away!

Her skills and courage are soon put to the test when three mysterious strangers threaten to turn their vacation into a living hell.

Of course Meryl Streep is awesome in just about every film she touches. Kevin Bacon also does an incredible job playing the villain, along with John C. Riley, in this suspense filled thriller.
