Horror On TV: The Hitchhiker 5.6 “Renaissance” (dir by Bruno Gantillon)


On tonight’s episode of The Hitchhiker, David Soul plays a greedy developer who runs afoul the Parisian underground.  It turns out that thinking big is not always the fool-proof strategy that the developer thinks that it is.  The cocky developer finds himself forced to confront his own dark side.  Myself, I’m curious why the opening credits always feature The Hitchhiker walking through the desert but, since the 5th season began, he’s pretty much just exclusively been hanging out in France.  Seriously, who is this guy?

The episode originally aired on July 14th, 1989!
