One of the featured titles in this year’s superb Ozploitation doc Not Quite Hollywood, Road Games is Vertigo on the highway, as Stacy Keach’s trucker suspects he’s witnessed a murder in the desolate Outback.
To the financier’s delight, US scream queen Jamie Lee Curtis rides shotgun. Indebted to Steven Spielberg’s Duel, Richard Franklin’s streamlined suspenser has in turn influenced everything from The Hitcher to this year’s Hush, yet remains unsung.
Argh! Finding the suspected killer’s van parked up in the deepest, darkest night, our hero decides to get out and investigate...
Remake rights: Greg Mclean, obviously. He could even bring Wolf Creek’s sicko-psycho John Jarrat along for the ride.
