The Hitcher Reviews

external linkDefinitely one for the books. It delivers all the goods and then some. A thriller with brains, an action flick with soul, a horror film with purpose. The Hitcher is one of those rare films that works on all it’s level, not spelling it out for the audience and still managing to entertain. This film is in a league of it’s own…pick up The Hitcher and see what I’m talking about… [read review] 4/4
--'The Arrow' (Arrow)
external linkOne of the best road-related movies and the definitive hitch-hiker flick. Interesting story and characters with a lot of suspense and action. Keeps you wondering what's going to happen next. Highly recommended. [read review] 8/10
--FrighT MasteR (UHM)
external linkWith some stark mood and Hauer turning in a steely and evil performance this passable flick could've worked if the script by Eric Red wasn't so implausible and lacking explanation. [read review] 2/4
