In THE HITCHER, California-bound youth Jim Halsy ( C. Thomas Howell) picks up rain-drenched stranger John Ryder ( Rutger Hauer) on a lonely road. Almost at once, Ryder announces himself as a maniac who has just cut up the last motorist who gave him a ride; now he's going to do the same to Jim.
The Hitcher is a marvelous thriller and Rutger Hauer is truly scary as hell. He is undoubtedly one of the best villains in cinematic history. The game that Hauer and C. Thomas Howell play out makes for a great way to spend an hour and a half of your life.
