Hitch-Hike Limited Edition UK Import 4K Ultra HD presents Pasquale Festa Campanile’s shocking road thriller in a brand-new 4K HDR restoration from the original negative. Starring Franco Nero, Corinne Cléry and David Hess, the film blends brutal suspense, dark humour and exploitation thrills into one of the most notorious Italian thrillers of the late 1970s.

 

Walter and Eve are travelling toward Los Angeles when they make a fatal mistake: picking up a hitchhiker named Konitz. The stranger soon reveals himself to be a dangerous escaped psychopath who takes control of the couple’s journey, forcing them to drive toward Mexico while leaving a violent trail of bodies behind them. As tension escalates on the road, Walter and Eve are pushed to their limits in a desperate struggle for survival.

 

Scored by the legendary Ennio Morricone, Hitch-Hike is a tense and disturbing cult thriller that mixes psychological cruelty, shocking violence and biting black humour.
