With a few hours to kill, I stopped in to see this movie fully expecting it to be another typical Hollywood horror remake - in other words, garbage. I did have a problem with the setup, the way the Hitcher was introduced and the implausibility of the couple to then be willing to give him a ride, and if the movie let on why the Hitcher was going on this maniacal murder spree, I missed it. On top of that, the tractor-trailer killing - how it could have been pulled off - was illogical. No, it is certainly not a great movie and not even a very good movie, but I would watch it again at some point ... which is good enough for me.
