I'm not sure why this was in my list of movies to watch, but it was a little over an hour, so I decided to give it a shot. I also had no clue what it was about when I started it.
This is the story of a man, Roberts, who decides to hitchhike across the country to reunite with his sweetheart. On the way, he chooses the wrong car to get into, and from then on, strange things happen.
I have no idea what to think of this movie. The man was a walking disaster. For some reason, he opens a car door and that murders a man. Huh? And it didn't even look like he checked for a pulse or anything - he just goes into full coverup mode. Then he decides he'd better take the man's clothes because he looks too poor to be driving the car. Okay...
Fast forward a bit, and we meet up with Vera. She's...something else. She was aware of the car's owner, and now she has Roberts hooked because she can turn him into the cops for murder. They talk about selling the car for cash, but Vera learns they might be able to get more money if Roberts continues to pretend to be the car's owner. And then another weird murder happens. Drunk woman wraps phone cord around her own neck and then Roberts strangles her from the other room. WHAT?!
I have to say, this one is definitely not getting watched again. The murders were so odd, and Roberts is narrating throughout the whole thing. That got irritating as well. Plus, he seems triggered by a particular song, but I wasn't really sure why. Yes, it was a tune they "played" (it's another movie where someone fakes an instrument) in New York, and I think it was playing in Hollywood, but I couldn't hear it. Anyway, I'll be sure to pass this one by if I see it pop up somewhere again.
