Review by Harry Pasquale (posted on 19-Feb-2005)

Joy Ride, also known as Roadkill, is a simulation of Steven Spielberg's Duel. The plot is when Lewis Thomas (Paul Walker), a young man, finds his brother, Fuller (Steve Zahn) in custody of the police, while going to pick up his girlfriend. But Lewis and his brother are put in danger when a radio prank goes wrong.

When a psychotic trucker is looking for a woman strangely nicknamed "Candy Cane", and a man cheeks Fuller, Lewis is forced to pretend to be Candy Cane by his brother, and tell the man that Candy's in the rude man's motel room.

But when the rude man is found with his jaw ripped out, the attacker, known only as Rusty Nail, tracks down the two boys when they run off.

Great scenes include Rusty Nail's explosive plot conclusion, a frenzied chase through a corn field, and some great shots of the brother's (seriously sexy) backsides as they are forced to walk naked into a restaurant.

Highly recommended.
