Whip Hubley plays Frank, a down-on-his-luck country musician who is easily swayed by Lea's manipulations. Hubley captures Frank's desperation and vulnerability, as well as his gradual descent into darkness as he becomes more involved in Lea's plan.

David Hewlett plays an unusual character named Ellison, who is the motel's creepy and eccentric owner. Hewlett brings a haunting presence to the role, making for a character that is as mysterious as he is sinister.

As the trio's plan unfolds, the story takes a number of unexpected twists and turns, with each character's true motives gradually becoming clear. The film is filled with tense, suspenseful moments, and there are definitely some shocking surprises in store for viewers.
