This is an Excellent Thriller!! all the way through.

Jim Halsey (Thomas C. Howell) is transporting another car to cali, when he picks up a Hitcher along the way, the mistake of his life. At first the Hitcher seems like your average traveller with a cold, his name is John Ryder. After a few scares in the car Jim asks John to get out, but that is only giving John the upper hand of the game, John has plans for Jim. John tells Jim he's going to cut off his arms,legs and head as he done to the previous guy, but first Jim has got too say four word "I-want-to-die" after Jim pushes John out the car, he thinks he's safe, but cat and mouse has just started.

The acting is great and polished, the plot is original, and Rugter Hauers Prefromance as the Hitcher is Excellent, Scary and slick. from great settings and action holes this is a top thriller from the later 80's, The eerie music keeps you on the end of your seat.

10/10 FANTASTIC!
