Lightning Entertainment Picks up Road Train!

Road Train has recently been picked up by Lightning Entertainment so a release date is not far off for the film. The writing of Clive Hopkins focuses on four friends left for dead after a vehicle accident in the desolate wasteland that is Australia. Their is also a supernatural aspect as the truck seems to be possessed a la Stephen King's Christine. Have a look at some early footage from the film until released by Lightning later this year or in 2010.

A synopsis for Road Train here:

"Four young friends on a camping adventure in outback Australia are run off the road by an erratically driven road train - a massive three-trailer truck. With their own vehicle wrecked, and the road train stopped, the friends march off to remonstrate with the drivers. But mysteriously, there is no one to be found. Suddenly, the silence is broken by the sound of gunshots. A distant figure in the bush screams and runs towards them. Have they become witnesses to a murder? There’s no time to discuss it. The friends commandeer the road train. The next town is only three hours away. But the next town is somewhere they will never reach. And what they discover inside the vehicle’s trailers proves more terrifying than anything out there on that lonely road (Traileraddict)."
