Review of The Hitcher (1986) by Juli N — 28 Feb 2014
The most terrifying psychological thriller I had ever seen in the 80's! Just watched it now and the impact it had on me was as horrendous now as it had been my first screening!
What made John Ryder (Rutger Hauer) so frightening wasn't the fact he wanted to kill it was the fact he wanted to die! He was an aberration, how do you threaten, control or stop someone who not only doesn't fear death he longs for it!
Rutger Hauer's tour de force performance will forever haunt me!
