- Joe Finsternis2d agoI haven't watched this movie since I was a teenager, and on top of it being one of those rare rewatches that fills me with dread I forgot how hilarious it was. There's a particular joy in 2000's horror that we just don't see enough of nowadays.

- andrewchristianson280September 27, 2026Good movie with good actors just a little strange. Makes you think about what you might do or how you might feel if this happened to you. Pretty scary. I wouldn’t play with someone like that. Where’s “Candy Cane”! Lol.
- wicho859September 23, 2026Very entertaining!
- PhysicalMedia4LifeNovember 12, 2025JOYRIDE - is an excellent cat & mouse on the road thriller that really earns and puts its place alongside the best ones in that catergorey such as The Hitcher, Duel and Breakdown!!! The onscreen chemistry between Paul Walker R.I.P 🙏🕊 and Steve Zahn is 💯 believable...when you watch them together they actually feel like real brothers. And finally Rustynail is a great & villain. I really like how we only see quick glimpses of him...he was utilised very wisely, making us really appreciate and hold onto the little amount that we do actually see him onscreen.
