Come On And Take A "Joy Ride"...There haven't been too many really good horror movies made over the last 10 years, and when I first saw "Joy Ride" a few years ago, I honestly wasn't expecting much.
As it turns out, this is a genuinely creepy and scary flick that does a great job of showing the desolate nature of many parts of the middle of this country. Sorry, Wyoming!
What you've got here is a couple of brothers driving from California to New Jersey who find themselves in a very bad spot after pranking a trucker named "Rusty Nail" on a CB radio.
Eventually, they pick up Helen Hunt's little sister, get in trouble with some inbreds, and some truly wacky shenanigans ensue.
It's not a violent or gory movie, but it definitely packs a punch.
You're welcome...
