| CRITICAL COMMENTS | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| "Hitcher II comes off as a tad more successful than Universal's other attempts to sequelize the classics in their library, but it's still not good enough to justify the effort." -- David Cornelius, Amazing Colossal Website | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| FACTS | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| "This is bad movie-making in every aspect of the phrase. And I pray that you heed my words and avoid this garbage at all costs...go rent The Hitcher instead and marvel in its simple beauty." -- Grim Ringler, JackassCritics.com | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| RELEASE DATE: July 15th, 2003 (USA) (VIDEO PREMIERE) - It took nearly fifteen years for this film to finally materialize. The rights to the material passed back and forth between several hands over the years until Charles Meeker finally produced this sequel. |
