Join your host Maura McAndrew for the final Sunday Scaries of the year!

This month’s feature will be the 1953 Ida Lupino cult classic, The Hitch Hiker!

Based on the infamous spree killer Billy Cook, this edge-of-your-seat thriller is set in the lonely desert landscapes of Southern California. From Time Out: “Absolutely assured in her creation of the bleak, noir atmosphere— whether in the confines of the car, or lost in the arid expanses of the desert— Lupino never relaxes the tension for one moment. Yet her emotional sensitivity is also upfront… Taut, tough, and entirely without macho glorification, it’s a gem, with first-class performances from its three protagonists, deftly clarified without resort to cliché.”
