Hi, I am trying to identify a movie that I have seen, but I do not know the title. Here are the details that I remember :- A man driving in the USA has a car breakdown and enters a small town to get repairs. The car requires a spare part that can not be obtained that day. He has to stay overnight in the town (at a motel, I believe). For some unstated reason, the town has a supernatural curse on it that means that if anyone stays inside the town city limits after sunset, they are condemned to never be allowed to leave. This movie was made sometime in the last 20 years or so, judging from my memory of the cars in it. Does anyone recognise this movie? T.I.A., Rob ---
