Horrorfest Administrator Review
Although there are some dated aspects, this great suspense thriller still holds strong.  Rutger Hauer really shines in this role and was a perfect choice for the hitchhiker.  C. Thomas Howell and Rutger Hauer also work well together to deliver an entertaining horror film.
