Ride, Mister?

About This Movie

So, Ride, Mister? is this gritty little gem from 1970 that dives deep into a revenge-fueled road trip. It captures that raw, unsettling atmosphere typical of early '70s crime dramas. The pacing is kind of uneven, but it adds to the tension, as our two young hitch-hikers go from one encounter to another, revealing their inner turmoil. The performances are pretty compelling; there's a real sense of desperation and youthfulness that resonates. It’s not just about the revenge plot, but also about how they grapple with their morality in a world that seems indifferent. And while the direction is relatively unknown, it has a distinctiveness that really sets it apart from other films of the era.

Ride, Mister? has a bit of a cult following among collectors due to its scarce availability on physical media. It was released on a few obscure formats, and finding a decent copy can be a challenge. The film's unique approach to storytelling and its raw performances have made it a point of interest for those who appreciate lesser-known crime dramas from the '70s.
