The Hitcher (1986 Version)

Just recently re-watched this movie with my mom and it's an okay one. The whole idea of the movie is interesting, but the main character is a bit of a wimp. The main character tries to be tough as the movie progresses, but to me it wasn't very convincing. The hitchhiker (played by Rutger Hauer), is really the only interesting character because he has a calm yet cold personality throughout the entire movie. It's kind of classified as a horror movie, but it's not scary at all. The movie is much more of a suspense movie, so don't have the expectation to be scared. This movie was remade, but it's very disappointing. I would recommend watching the original rather than the remake. Overall, The Hitcher not the greatest movie, but it does teach you to never pick up a hitchhiker.
