Death Curve (2015) is a horror-suspense thriller that immerses the viewer in an intense and claustrophobic experience, challenging the limits of the body and mind. The story follows Mallory, a young woman who embarks on a solo road trip to her wedding. However, her journey takes a terrifying turn when her SUV breaks down in a desolate and remote area. In her moment of desperation, she encounters Christian, a man who initially appears to be her savior, but soon reveals dark and sinister intentions.

In her attempt to escape, Mallory causes an accident that leaves them stranded in a hostile ravine. What ensues is a brutal battle for survival, where Mallory must confront not only her own injuries but also the constant threat posed by Christian.

Filmed in the inhospitable desert landscapes of California, Death Curve uses its vast and isolated setting to amplify the sense of loneliness and imminent danger.

Beyond its survival horror elements, Death Curve delves into themes of human resilience, showing how determination and intellect can be powerful tools in life-or-death situations. The film explores Mallory’s internal struggle as she is pushed to the limit, offering an emotional experience for fans of psychological thrillers.
