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)

Fantastic Stacy Keach and equally excellent Jamie Lee Curtis in a film where the main focus is on a journey and one car that the truck driver keeps encountering. The escalating tension is not as great as in the case of "Duel", but this movie is more action-packed and mainly has great lines that revolve around the main character and his companion. Australia captivates me.
