A two-lane stretch of Virginia backroad, decades of unexplained deaths, and the people who can't stop driving it.
The film that put Full Access Films on the map. Shot over years on one of the most notorious roads in Virginia, Crawford Road follows the history, the folklore, and the still-open cases that cling to a single stretch of asphalt in York County — and the residents, investigators, and thrill seekers drawn back to it after dark.
The work

About
James Person is an independent filmmaker from Virginia and the founder of Full Access Films. He works as director, writer, cinematographer and producer — often all on the same picture — building films out of the histories, the folklore and the unfinished business of the places he shoots in.
His 2018 documentary thriller Crawford Road remains his most widely seen work. Since then he has released the supernatural thriller Ten Doors (2022), the Civil War-rooted thriller The Blood of Saltville (2024), and the documentary The Explore Act: Price Versus Barr (2025). He and collaborator Gordy Price were profiled on WHRO's Curate for their Virginia-based independent films.
