B Movie of the week
The Hitcher, 2007 remake. Usually remakes are not as good as the originals, and in this case the original has Rutger Hauer so major kudos there, but this version still has some genuine jump / horror moments.
I just watched Sean Bean - the title villain - take out a rural police force complete with helicopter, to a soundtrack of Nine Inch Nails' Closer. O for Awesome. And thanks to the magic of youtube** , you can too.
Sean Bean has a wonderfully varied filmography. For all of his appearances in masterpieces - the Lord of the Rings, he also features in a hell of a lot of guilty pleasures - Death Race 2, Equilibrium, Silent Hill, and Ronin. The Hitcher definitely falls into the latter category, and it is awesome.
