Duel - an uptight businessman on the road is antagonized by a trucker.
Joy Ride - brothers and a friend drive home from college, but get involved in a killer trucker's mind games and murder.
The Hills Have Eyes - a family takes a road trip with the RV, break down in the desert where some very creepy people live.
The Car - a black car with dark windows and no apparent driver torments a southwest town.
Breakdown - Fantastically manical movie about a husband who loses his wife to a crazy trucker when their car breaks down.
Night Terror - Valerie Harper, a mother alone on the road is tormented.
Wrong Turn - Youths on a road trip crash and look for help, only to be chased and murdered by seriously inbred rednecks.
