Alien at the Movies

Coyote Lake

Somewhere near the Texas/Mexican border, a poor mom & daughter duo rent out rooms from their dilapidated home. Seemingly sweet & innocent, they are actually self appointed vigilantes drugging & robbing unsuspecting human traffickers & drug runners and disposing the bodies in the lake. The mom is controlling & the daughter has been brainwashed into this way of life with the hopes of escape once they save enough money.. Their murderous plans are disrupted when 2 desperate drug dealers seeking shelter take the women hostage. This is a psychological thriller examining human behavior in the struggle between good & evil.

Alien gives it 2½ “cinder block” stars out of 4.
