Joyride

About This Movie

So, Joyride... it’s a bit of a hidden gem in the 90s thriller scene. You’ve got this average power-line repairman who maybe just wants to get home to his family, but things take a dark turn. The atmosphere is thick with tension, and the pacing keeps you on edge without feeling rushed. There’s this slow burn that really pulls you in. Practical effects give it an authenticity that’s refreshing; the whole trunk scenario is claustrophobic and really plays into the suspense. The performances are solid, adding to the gritty realism. It’s not your typical thriller, and that’s what makes it stand out. There’s a rawness to it that lingers after the credits roll.
