41: The Hitcher

This week, Bryan and Dave take a trip back to 1986 for the Rutger Hauer/C. Thomas Howell horror movie road trip, The Hitcher, from the murderous, deeply troubled writer, Eric Red. Dave struggles with modern re-evaluations that attempt to claim The Hitcher as some sort of queer horror hidden gem and Bryan has to do a lot of heavy lifting to fill in the movie's massive narrative gaps in order to make it a movie worth watching. Is the movie's imperiled hero Jim Halsey dead this whole time? Is he gay and on the run from the physical manifestation of bisexuality? You're going to have to listen to find out!
