"Far from Home" is a stupid mystery thriller starring Drew Barrymore as a sexy teenager who's stranded, along with her father, in a trailer park being stalked by an unknown killer. A good cast wastes their considerable talents in this mess which didn't involve me from start to finish. It's neither scary or thrilling. It is interesting to watch Barrymore in her first grownup role, but she should have selected a better script than this.
