Hitch-Hike

Pasquale Festa Campanile (THE LIBERTINE) directed this late 1970s Italian exploitation film, a brutal and outrageous thriller set in the American Southwest. Franco Nero stars as Walter Mancini, a washed-up alcoholic writer traveling with his wife, Eve (former Bond girl Corinne Clery), whom he frequently abuses and humiliates. However, when the couple picks up a stranded motorist named Adam, their trip takes an unexpected detour. Adam, a deranged and murderous fugitive, forces them to drive him to Mexico, passing the time by tying up Walter and torturing him for fun and raping Eve. Pursued by Adam's former partners, from whom he has stolen two million dollars, the dysfunctional trio ride through the desert as each plots their escape from one another. Shot with gusto, HITCH-HIKE soons spirals into a wild ride with unexpected twists and turns. Barely released in the USA, the film is a true gem in the world of exploitive cinema.

  I enjoyed this film and would recommend it because it reminded me of an earlier film in which a couple are terrorized by a trucker on the highway.

  I really enjoyed this film with its cast of horrible characters. There is only one person who seems genuinely good - and she ends up getting raped and killed... read more »
