The thriller follows a pair of outlaw brothers as they seek temporary refuge in a desolate town, only to learn that it is inhabited by a small family of psychotic cannibalistic lunatics.
There's a level of wild B-movie ambition here that's preferable to the usual blandly violent, overly serious genre fare. If nothing else, Von Hoffman clearly has a voice - even if his accents are imitations.
It's a dry bite of cannibalistic terror in a post-apocalyptic wasteland, and a film that feels like it lasts for three years, despite kinetic plot elements.
Viewers would be far better off rewatching a Mad Max or Rob Zombie movie, or any episode of The Walking Dead, than paying hard-earned money to see Drifter.
