Black Cab
Directed by Bruce Goodison
When Anne and Patrick hail a black cab after a night out, their driver is chatty, jovial even, but they are in no mood to talk. In fact, the couple is barely on speaking terms. That is, until they realize the driver has no intention of taking them home. Locked in the cab with no means of escape, the driver transports the couple to a stretch of deserted and supposedly haunted road. But what is his purpose? Is he mad or just plain evil? And why has he selected Anne and Patrick as his victims?
Nick Frost stars as a menacing cab driver in this haunting new thriller.
Cast: Nick Frost, Synnøve Karlsen, Luke Norris

Exceptional! Nick Frost does jovial to psychotic in less than a nano-second. The other actors do and equally good job. A very chilly thriller horror with a supernatural theme that never quite explains itself. This will keep me tossing and turning at night, but for all the right reasons.
What kind of ending was that? good performance but this just did not know how to wrap up its.
This is a moody atmospheric film that leaves more questions and answers at the end. The actors try to do a good job with a not so good plot. There was never a point where this film dragged me in or really scared me. Nick Frost do play his character well. But it's not enough to raise my two skulls to three.
It's adequate but no better. The plot is messy and the denouement is simply confusing and ultimately pointless. The performances are good, though, and it's fun to see Nick Frost play well and truly against type, although it doesn't quite rescue the film. With a little more focus it could have been a lot more fun.
Could have better, like a short film maybe?
