I vaguely remember really liking these movies of hitchhiking gone bad. Let's see if that pans out. For added fun hitchhike to my house!
The Hitcher can be added to our movies that were remade. The remake came out in 2007 and sank faster than iron-rich blood in that blue liquid they don't use anymore. Not that C. Thomas Howell (Mutant Vampire Zombies from the 'Hood!) and Rutger Hauer (Hobo with a Shotgun) aren't classy but this movie is elevated by the presence of Jennifer Jason Leigh who doesn't have a silly sounding movie to her credit. Unless you count eXistenZ for it's ridiculous spelling and association with a penis enlargement pill (cream?). But that's actually a decent David Cronenberg movie. You might remember The Hitcher for the scene with a severed finger. Apparently it was originally an eyeball but the studio made them change it. Thanks HBO for making the movie Marissa friendly!
Breakdown is out-of-print. I love out-of-print movies! It makes me think there's a little more incentive to come see it. It's so out-of-print that I don't have it currently. This might turn into another Robo Vampire situation. If that happens the alternative movie will be Robo Vampire.
Both these movies might be the beginning of a Desert Car Horror theme. It might not. I don't know, stop fucking asking me.
Here's what happened last week:
