such an amazing film and ending. so easily could have been a cheesy 80's horror/action flick,....its way deeper than that. It ends as you'd expect with the hero killing the villain, but the very last scene when the credits roll combined with this amazing music leaves you reflecting on what you've just witnessed.

The other thing that struck me was the way Jim sort of caresses John's hair with the barrel of the shotgun. He doesn't go to shoot him to make sure he's dead, doesn't spit on his body, he doesn't even have an angry expression on his face. There's a strange sort of respect that Halsey treats Ryder with that I think adds tremendous impact to the music that plays in the credits.

For me, the final scene, the 'horror' over, C Thomas Howell, cigarette in hand, and this cut were the icing on the cake which brought the entire movie together. Mark Isham...kudos.

Am I the only one who noticed this playing under Jim Hopper's monologue in season four of Stranger Things?

RIP Rutger hauer

This film even after all this time is fucking scary. I love the misty desert, but it's án unnerving location indeed, imagine this scenario? Stuff of nightmares...

Atmosphere of isolated and beset in this movie is amazing.

The very last scene and the music combined, reflects; Life will never be the same again for him.

This scene is so carthetic in the film. Jim's finally free of Ryder. The film takes a beat as the credits role to let that sink in for the audience. Jim is alone but a dark figure in the desert as the sun sets, he's never going to be the same. His life was ruined by the actions of one man. A monster. And the film kind of almost suggests here Jim's lonely oath forward is void. It lets us know that Ryder's presence is almost missed in a way. Jims game of cat and mouse with him took him to the very edge where he was willing to kill himself in the desert and blow his own brains out. For Jim haulsy the world is a different place, he was forced to grow up in a way no human being ever should. He became something awful himself in order to stop Ryder. That to me is why he's just a silouhete. No other thriller out there ever takes the chance to actually reflect on everything that happened. There is no happy ending. Just an end to the madness of Ryder and his actions.

это удивительно. Я рад, что эта композиция была снова использована, это заслуженно.

Great tune from original movie, surprised to hear it in latest episode of Stranger Things 4 (ep 4)

The Hitcher is a prime example of filmmaking perfection. Eric Red's screenplay, yet simplistic on its surface goes sideways in an operatic style, similar to the respected film "Duel." I do however believe that The Hitcher has a huge advantage. The cinematography is Oscar worthy and had this film been made twenty years later, I believe John Seale would have received far greater praise. One of my favorite films, No Country for Old Men, photographed by Roger Deakins comes to mind when seeing these rich widescreen shots of the California and Nevada desert that Mr. Seale memorialized in The Hitcher. Every shot in this film feels like I'm watching a portrait being painted with nature being its canvas. First-time viewers are fortunate here as this film was shot way before CGI found its place in cinema, corrupting the art of "waiting for the shot." The direction of this film by Robert Harmon was flawless in so many ways, which I'm understating here, but I highly suggest everyone watch this informative retrospective on The Hitcher. kzread.info/dash/bejne/ln9my8aulKqydKw.html The performances of C. Thomas Howell, Jennifer Jason-Leigh, Billy Green Bush, Henry Darrow AND the late and great Rutger Hauer were the attention grabber for me as a teenager. HBO had The Hitcher playing several times a week in the 80s...and 34 years later it still is playing! I had the chance to Meet C.T. Howell about seven years back and it was surreal to hear him marvel at the memories of a film that I admired to such a high degree. I could go on about this film, but for the sake of keeping my thoughts at a minimum, I'll end here. Do yourself a favor and watch The Hitcher, with the lights off, and most importantly... listen to your mom and never pick up a hitchhiker.

I think about my mom a lot when I hear this… I lost her a few years ago. I remember my life as a child in the 80s and 90s and how good it was with no cares in the world. I get so wistful for those days.

This film is one of the greatest!

Just saw it. AMAZING freakin' movie, man!! This theme is otherworldly...

"I want you to stop me..."

Thrilled to suddenly hear this in the new Stranger Things season. John Ryder lives on. Rest in peace Rutger.

It's a very low key brooding soundtrack. Def sets the tone for the desolate scenery and the seemingly helpless protagonist.

Besides the Exorcist this was the only movie I remember ever having to turn off as a kid in the 80s. The part where he let's go of the brakes. The ending music haunted me, and I had to walk my neighborhood just dazed from what I just watched. Fantastic movie!

The creepiest thing for me was that as the movie progressed, the main character, toughening up to survive, started acting more and more like the Hitcher. If I was doing a sequel, I would have made him the Hitcher in the next one...

Yeah, I watched the remake because I was interested what Sean Bean would do with that role. He was ok, but one dimensional. The rest of the movie was mediocre at best. More or less the same script, but it completely lacked the philosophical layers that the original could be projected on. The Hitcher (1986) is one of the best examples of how subtleties can make or break your movie.

Oh yeah, that script change was a big mistake. The whole theme of the original was about tormenting the main protagonist psychologically. Killing him off halfway through the movie didn't make any sense. Unbelievable the same director worked on it. Either he never understood the script or just didn't give a shit. Or maybe the producers thought it would be a good idea to make Sophia Bush's pretty face and tits last till the end. But if that's your idea, why not start with her as the protagonist in the first place? :/

And 1986 movie is brilliant.

Some of you guys may not know this. But for whoever has seen the new season for stranger things, there is a scene where they use this identical theme in one of the episodes.

Simply awesome. I've always loved this movie. The mood is something else.

This music is so beautiful, but it's really sad.... It makes me think about a lot of things. I always saw Jon Ryder as a Vietnam vet who just went mad. He had a crazy skill set

Good sad classic music! 10/10

One of my favorite movies growing up. This music was so somber at the end. After all of that he went through.

Amazing soundtrack for an amazing movie! RIP Rutger!

A perfect blend of Western,isolation and horror.

hello song used in last season of stranger things ( scene in jail in russia when speak with the gard in jail too) not understand wht they uses this song.

The chemistry between both characters really sells well to an original score - this movie alone is classic in itself, I'm so happy to be born in the 80ts because the classic horror is so much outstanding rather than this shite we watch today, the music score is completely fantastic I mean who writes music like this today (come on) anyway 10/10 performance 10/10 for script writing,10/10 for every bit of film I love it (one of a kind) r.I.p

8 years ago, lost the ......., lost my.... my future. The car filled with cardboard, 2 hours drive, I have the first cd that pass 'a personal compilation' this music was the fourth one I put rehearsal a it made me all the trip. This music is like the end of something that left its mark on me forever. * Yes I love this movie ;-)

What a Movie!!

the ending music is so haunting

the torture of society against the cursed

Perfection.

The scariest aspect to this movie is you can't comfort yourself by reassuring yourself that it can't happen.

80s

This movie actually scared me for being what is was, no movie except this, Exorcist, and Sinister(1/2) actually scared me out there except these 4 films. . . I love all of them.

Just watched The Hitcher last night for the 1st time before it turns 37 on the 21st of February. Really liked it, great road thriller and I love this part of the music, what it represents and really cool they used it for Stranger Things S4. For some reason, The Hitcher is one of those films I wish I could literally go back in time to the 80s, haha. But at least films serve as a window of a particular time period of sorts along with its other significant attributes. One more thing about this awesome and hauntingly beautiful music piece is the fact that it tells us that although Ryder is killed for good, Jim's life will never be the same after everything he's been through, that theme of loss of innocence and growing up too quickly coz of a harsh world the movie shows. And the cast, wow. I like C. Thomas Howell, a very good serious role for him, and the late and great Rutger Hauer as Ryder, menacing with an ice cold glance. And this ending shot, beautiful and compelling.

Thank you brilliant..

Thank You for the music! All the best from Romania!
