Duel (1972,  PG)
Duel
A very simple film but still a great tense thriller.
2
Joy Ride (Road Kill) (2001,  R)
Joy Ride (Road Kill)
A very good modern thriller that has elements from other great thrillers like Duel, The Hitcher. It was enjoyable and will have you on the edge of your seat at times.

The Hitcher (2007,  R)
The Hitcher
This is a brilliant if simple thriller/horror film! I was surprised I liked it so much, favours well compared to the original and much better than The Hitcher 2 which no doubt passed many by, just as well. This is very similar to the original with the general plot and "key" scenes still in it. Sophia Bush is great in this and Sean Bean does make a a good viillain. Very violent and bloody to go with it! If you thought this would be a poor comparison to the cult original then I suggest you check it out.

The Hitcher (1986,  R)
The Hitcher
A good slasher film on the road, recently had a re-make done.
5
The Hitcher 2 - I've Been Waiting (,  R)
The Hitcher 2 - I've Been Waiting
A pretty good sequel, if you like the first. Not as violent and couldn't out do the first.
6
Thelma & Louise (1991,  R)
Thelma & Louise
A cult classic drama film as two women go on the run leaving their small town lives behind. Has a classic ending!
7
Wild Hogs (2007,  PG-13)
Wild Hogs
I didn't think I would like this as much as I did. Has some very funny scenes and great slapstick humour. It's a kinda mix of Old School meets the Magnificent seven!! Very well cast as well, great fun.
8
Jeepers Creepers (2001,  R)
Jeepers Creepers
Brings a refreshing change to the slasher genre. Very cool film, quite gory and the first time you see it you just think.......What on earth is going on!?
9
Wrong Turn (2003,  R)
Wrong Turn
A very gory, violent horror at times. It has a cool change of theme for a horror film.
10
Eurotrip (2003,  R)
Eurotrip
Very funny in places, a mix of Road trip and American pie!
11
Road Trip (2000,  R)
Road Trip
A pretty good, buddy, road movie with some good laughs along the way.
12
Dead End (2003,  R)
Dead End
This is a strange film, very creepy and has a twist that you either saw coming or will hit you for six!
13
Wind Chill (2007,  R)
Wind Chill
A pretty decent low budget thriller, although it does start to get a bit weird. Overall watchable, especially if you like any of the More like this films mentioned!
14
Collateral (2004,  R)
Collateral
Very good film, didn't think Cruise cast as an assassin would work, but it does. Cool film.
15
2 Fast 2 Furious (2003,  PG-13)
2 Fast 2 Furious
Nearly as good as the first. Plenty of action with some stunning cars.
16
2001 Maniacs (2005,  R)
2001 Maniacs
A bizarre film, very tongue in cheek. Lots of over the top gore. A bit like Wrong Turn but more comic than scary.
17
Reeker (2005,  Unrated)
Reeker
An ok low budget horror. Seen much better and much worse. The twist is a bit similar to a few movies lately, I won't name them as it will give it away.....hopefully we won't see it used over and over!
18
The Locals (Dead People) (2003,  Unrated)
The Locals (Dead People)
A VERY low budget horror starts ok but is more of a ghost story and not scary at all.
19
Highway (2001,  R)
Highway
A pretty good road trip movie with some bizarre things happening along the way.
20
Broken Flowers (2005,  R)
Broken Flowers
A very good film that won't be for everyone. If you liked Lost in translation and like films to do with everyday life, relationships etc you will appreciate this. Otherwise you'll likely to find it too slow and a tad dull.
21
The Cannonball Run (1981,  PG)
The Cannonball Run
Saw it again recentley and wasn't as good as I remembered, but still fairly enjoyable. Prefer the 2nd one to be honest.
22
Cannonball Run II (1984,  PG)
Cannonball Run II
I think this is more fun than the original with even more over the top action, fights and lovely cars.
23
Breakdown (1997,  R)
Breakdown
A very good thriller, well acted and with a good story to. Has some great scenes, action and tension all the way. Quite a few well known faces in this surprised it slip me by!
24
Wolf Creek (2005,  R)
Wolf Creek
A tough, gritty horror similar to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
25
Smokey and the Bandit (1977,  PG)
Smokey and the Bandit
This has some good stunts and car chases but looking a little old now.
26
From Dusk Till Dawn (1996,  R)
From Dusk Till Dawn
When I first saw this i had no idea what it was about and it made the film even better for it. You have to see this, so much happens. Great action and a huge twist in the plot!
27
Joy Ride 2: Dead Ahead (2008,  Unrated)
Joy Ride 2: Dead Ahead
A decent follow up to the first Joyride (Roadkill) film. Although not quite as good as the first it still has some good scenes and decent action as ol' "Rustynail" causes more havoc for some youngsters off the beaten track. No doubt the 3rd one will be along in no time!
28
Sex Drive (2008,  R)
Sex Drive
Yes it's an in your face rude, crude teen sex comedy with a lot of nudity. If you're easy offended then you will be. It's pretty funny in places and just silly in others. However it comes across as a fun film that the cast enjoyed making. The unrated version of the film is quite odd to, as the director will tell you! Not quite up there with American Pie, Euro Trip etc but it should still cause quite a few laughs. That sure is an awesome car to!
29
Little Miss Sunshine (2006,  R)
Little Miss Sunshine
A great little comedy about a dysfunctional family making a road trip to a beauty pageant. Along the way all sorts of bizarre things happen. A great feel good comedy film.
30
Sideways (2004,  R)
Sideways
A decent romantic comedy, life drama film. Two friends take a trip around some vineyards for wine tasting on a stag do week. Along the way they find out quite a lot about themselves. Pretty funny in places, a decent film.
