A terrific thrill ride that offers up plenty of uncomfortable scenes and twists, Fox Hunt Drive boasts engaging performances from its two leads and solid, suspenseful directing. Alison (Lizzie Zerebko) wants to land an architecture job. She has the education and qualifications, but something that happened at a former position is working against her. She tries to make ends meet by working for a rideshare company.
