An Italian alcoholic reporter and his discontented wife are driving through the desert with their RV, on their way to California. After some bickering, some fucking and some more bickering, they do the 'good Samaritan' thing by picking up a hitch-hiker who appears to be experiencing car trouble. It doesn't take long for the seemingly innocent passenger to show his true colors and start up with some sexy-talk aimed at the reporter's old lady. Hubby ain't having any of that and kicks Hess' ass a little before getting a gun pulled on him. Their not-so-fun vacation continues on. Hess wants to make it to Mexico with 2 million dollars he got away with after a gas station robbery. Along with way, some cops get capped, some betrayed homosexual comrades show up to settle a score and Hess gets freaky with the beautiful Corinne Clery.
Plenty of twists n' turns, fast pace, Clery getting newd VERY frequently and Hess being a hateable prick. Just an all-around well shot, well acted and very fun flick. My only gripe would be that irritatingly cheezy song that pops up every once in a while. "There's music every where...". Made me wince every time. If you haven't seen "Hitch-Hike" and consider yourself a fan of 'exploit'-cinema, than you are truly missing out.
