“Road Games” (** out of four) was a pretentious and bizarre melodrama about a hitchhiking pair (Andrew Simpson and Josephine de la Baume) who become entangled with a very strange married couple and a guy who picks them up in rural France who happens to be a collector of roadkill! Features some powerful individual scenes and good performances but is overall too aloof and too strange (and too long) to get you involved in. Still, at least you have to give the filmmakers some points for trying something new and offbeat.
