Review of The Hitch-Hiker (1953) by Scott R — 12 Apr 2017
A tense & taunt thriller that clearly demonstrates two things 1) How great female filmmakers are & 2) what a great script can do to a film.
The story of two mates driving rural US & unintentionally pick up the serial killer Mathers who is posing as a Hitch-Hiker.
A hard & masculine piece that just keeps you gripped & invested in. Ida Lupino was a solid actress but a sensational filmmaker, a great lesser known 1950's classic.
