Review of The Hitcher

The Hitcher (1986)
9/10
10:14am...I stayed up all night after watching this.

C. Thomas Howell & Rutger Hauer...an unlikely pair? An unimaginable duo?

I THINK NOT!

THE HITCHER is the film that brought them together for your enjoyment and your terror. Witness a film so starkly deadly and daring that the thrills, twists, and turns are a slap in the face every single time.

I loved this film and thought it truly captured the paranoia facing those weary travellers of America's highways and pit stops. What a great setting for the story to unfold along a strip of highway that is virtually barren. This is a place where there are no "city eyes" to watch your every move and the nearest police officer is 45 minutes away, all the time! We thought it was safe to travel down these roads. But we were wrong, it's the perfect breeding ground for severely disturbed people who litter the roads with bodies, blood, and body parts.

If you think you've seen it all, then watch The Hitcher.

It's relentless.
