Fuel up, keep your eyes on the mirror, and whatever you do… don’t pick up The Hitcher

In this episode, we hit the open road to talk about The Hitcher, and it's relentless and chilling cat-and-mouse chase. Directed by Robert Harmon and featuring an unforgettable performance from Rutger Hauer as the enigmatic John Ryder.

We dive into the film’s cinematography, its dreamlike logic, and the unsettling chemistry between Hauer and C. Thomas Howell. So buckle up and stay alert, the road is long, the desert is empty, and someone might already be sitting in the back seat.
