Stacy Keach and Jamie Lee Curtis star in Richard Franklin’s 1981 Australian slasher classic, inspired by Alfred Hitchcock’s Rear Window. Keach plays Quid, an American trucker who, with the help of Curtis’s hitchhiker, tracks down a serial killer active on the long, empty roads of southern Australia. (Powerhouse Films)

A great Stacy Keach and equally excellent Jamie Lee Curtis in a film that's mainly about the journey and one car that a truck driver keeps encountering. The escalating tension isn't as great as in Duel, but this film is all the more action-packed, and, above all, it has great lines delivered by the main character and his companion. Australia gets me.
