‘The Last Stop in Yuma County’: Barbara Crampton Answers a Tense Call in Exclusive Clip

Published

on

Writer-director Francis Galluppi will soon face off Kandarian demons by helming the next Evil Dead film. This week sees the release of his star-studded feature debut, The Last Stop in Yuma County. An original Western thriller in the vein of early Coen Brothers, the film arrives this Friday, May 10 from Well Go USA in select theaters and VOD.

In anticipation, Bloody Disgusting has an exclusive clip featuring stars Jocelin Donahue and Barbara Crampton. Watch below and find the trailer and poster art underneath.

Here’s the story: “While awaiting the next fuel truck at a middle-of-nowhere Arizona rest stop, a traveling young knife salesman is thrust into a high-stakes hostage situation by the arrival of two similarly stranded bank robbers with no qualms about using cruelty—or cold, hard steel—to protect their bloodstained, ill-begotten fortune.”

Joining Donahue and Crampton is a who’s who of horror favorites: Jim Cummings, Richard Brake, Faizon Love,  Alex Essoe, Michael Abbott Jr., Sierra McCormick, Nicholas Logan, Sam Huntington, Connor Paolo, Robin Bartlett, Jon Proudstar, Ryan Masson, and Gene Jones.

In her glowing review, our head critic Meagan Navarro says The Last Stop in Yuma County is “bustling with life and boisterous personalities, reflective on screen in every facet.” She adds, “Galluppi makes it so effortlessly easy to get sucked into this slick, singular world and invest in its characters, only for the filmmaker to revel in dispatching them.”

From his very humble upbringing to his death from brain cancer, we get a rare glimpse into the wide-ranging influences that made Wes Craven a visionary filmmaker.
