On DVD of course. Fans of Rutger Hauer seem to think it’s one of his best, and no, it’s not that SciFi one (which is one of my favorite films of all time). I got it on inter-library loan from a library on the other side of the state. Now I have three weeks to watch it, though I could of course rip it and just watch whenever.

      Nope, nope, nope. The Hitcher (1986). Fans seem to appreciate Hauer’s performance, it’s not as clear to me that they liked the film in and of itself quite so much.

      Hauer would go on to say that critics misunderstood the film, calling it an allegory in which Ryder represents evil. The film has since been acknowledged as a cult classic and one of Hauer’s most iconic roles -Wikipedia
