    "A train accident in a 1970's steel town, following the townspeople as they have to come together to heal." Are you kidding me? What a bunch of garbage. This is total BS. Sounds like JJ Abrams spin.

    Well since we know nothing about the plot of this movie other than the fact that it shares it name with a motel chain I really don't know what to say about this.
