A young married couple becomes stranded at an isolated motel and find hidden video cameras in their room. They realize that unless they escape, they'll be the next victims of a snuff film.
Borrowing a few pages from James Mangold's Identity and reminiscent of John Dahl's roadside chillers, Vacancy is the epitome of formula: It's about an estranged married couple who, following an ill-advised detour and an unfortunate automobile mishap, find themselves spending the night in the seriously grungy Pinewood Motel.
