The Hitcher

A 2007 remake of the 1986 horror film. DC and I rented and watched it at home...

A young couple decided to give a man a ride to the town but soon realised that it was a serious mistake. The hitcher turned out to be a brutal murderer who framed them for his crimes and they ended up paying a high price for their actions... boy was tied between a truck and trailer and torn to death, girl had to undergo psychiatric treatment after she lost her sweetheart and the hitcher killed by the vengeful girl...

The film didn't perform very well in the box office. It is said to be inferior to the original film. It however did deliver some shivers down our spine. After watching so many travel-tragic films in the recent 2 years, it makes us wonder how safe is it really to travel alone backpacking in another country?

The Morale of the story is: Never pick up a stranger on the road!
