DivX Clásico

Wolfman en [url=http://72.15.144.56/forum/viewtopic.php?t=46830]fileheaven[/url] escribió:I had two different DVDs of the movie to choose from - but unfortunately both obviously had the same very interlaced NTSC and not remastered original as their ancestor. So please forgive me for the quality that is not really up to snuff this time - but I simply HAD TO release this classic - Compulsive Releaser's Disorder.

SINOPSIS: Dos tipos se han ido de juerguecilla a México asegurando a sus esposas que salían a pescar. En mala hora, pues les va a tomar como rehenes un prófugo de la justicia, que ha tomado la costumbre de hacer autostop en su huida; mientras quien le conduce le es útil, conserva la vida, pero en cuanto sospecha que la policía está tras su pista, liquida a su víctima y vuelve a ejercer de autostopista. La trama discurre entre la tensa relación del secuestrador con sus rehenes, y la colaboración de la policía estadounidense y mexicana, gracias a la cual se va estrechando el cerco sobre el fugitivo (decine21).

Supposedly the only Film Noir directed by a woman (Ida Lupino of 'High Sierra' and 'On Dangerous Ground'), 'The Hitch-Hiker' is a fascinating thriller that holds your attention from start to finish. Edmond O'Brien ('D.O.A.') and Frank Lovejoy ('in A Lonely Place') play two buddies on a road trip who pick up a hitch-hiker (William Talman, best remembered as Hamilton Berger on the old "Perry Mason" TV show). BIG MISTAKE! He is actually notorious psycho killer Emmett Myers. Talman gives a terrific performance as Myers, a real nasty piece of work with a bum eye so you never know if he's asleep or awake. He holds the men hostage, bullies and provokes them, even uses them as target practice. We've seen many similar plots over the years but I thought this was a fresh and unpredictable. Lupino's direction really suits the material, the tension builds throughout, and Talman is unforgettable. If you like thrillers track this one down. Highly recommended.
