Highway to Hell (1992)

This is really a terrible film.The script was too weak and the plot has no strong base at all. There was no suspense or twist in the story. Moreover it was full of unnecessary characters who actually has nothing to do with story. The characters had no definite purpose or consistency of any sort. Some of the characters were doing things which no sense a all,The acting was hilarious, and most of the action scenes was quite lame and totally unprofessional. Even if one can endure the acting of the main characters but the acting of the side characters was a real eye sore.Not recommended.

Must have been 16 years ago since I saw this movie for the very first time, as a kid just 10 years old. Last week I made a trip to memory lane and boy did I got entertained ! Highway to Hell tells the story of Charlie Sykes (Chad Lowe) and Rachel Clark (Kristy Swanson)on a trip to Las Vegas to get secretly married. While driving on the Interstate Charlie decides to take a shortcut but finds out he should've listened to his girlfriend and just kept driving on the main roads. They stop at a gas station for a quick fill and have a strange encounter with the attendant and owner named Sam (Richard Farnsworth). He warns Charlie not to fall asleep on the road ahead, but as you can guess this is exactly what happened. He wakes up to find out a strange cop named "Hellcop" arrests them and takes Rachel with him. Charlie hurries back to the gas station and tells Sam the situation. Sam explains he has to get to Hell because that is where Hellcop took his fiancée.Then the adventure begins ! As a Kid I just loved the creativity of Hell and it's citizens. There's a lot of comedy in this movie, like you see in most Horror movies from this era. Horror is a genre which doesn't fit this movie well anyways. There are even Cameo's of the Stiller's ( Ben (in one of his first movies), his father Jerry and his sister ). If you're into Comedy-Horror movies then you shouldn't miss this gem. It's very underrated and to a lot of people this classic has become a cult-movie. Take this roller-coaster ride to hell and I'm sure you'll have a big smile on your face at the end.

I saw this movie a long time ago. It's hard to find. But, I remember that I liked it a lot, and would like to see it again. Please release on DVD! So many movies these days don't stick in your mind after you see them. I saw this a long time ago, and I still remember that it was a good film. I wish there were more films like it.I suppose that I could buy it on VHS, but I keep waiting for it to come out on DVD.There's really nothing more I want to say, but I guess I have to write a few more linesSo, here they are.

Charle (Rob Lowe's affably boyish younger brother Chad) and Rachel (delectable blonde hottie Kristy Swanson, who originated the part of everyone's favorite bloodsucker-stomping high school cheerleader in the flop movie "Buffy the Vampire Slayer") are a sweetly pure and innocent young couple who make the usual mistake of driving down a remote desert dirt road. When Rachel gets abducted by the pernicious superhuman fiend Hellcop (hulking C.J. Graham; Jason in "Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives"), Charlie literally has to go to hell to rescue Rachel within twenty-four hours or otherwise the Devil (a smoothly sneaky and ingratiating Patrick Bergin) will have her soul for all eternity.Director Arte De Jong, working from Brian Helgeland's quirkily creative script, presents a gloriously offbeat vision of Hades in this wildly eccentric and imaginative horror-comedy-drama-action-adventure handy dandy multi-genre combo oddity. Among the arrestingly off-kilter sights to be seen in this wacked-out beaut are a greasy spoon diner populated by cops who are never served with a short order cook (a pre-stardom Ben Stiller) who fries eggs on the sidewalk, a gang of hostile bikers, a psycho ice cream man, road workers who all look like Andy Warhol, a butt-ugly libidinous lady demon, a three-headed mutant dog, and a highway with nothing but speeding Volkswagons rippin' down the road. Moreover, Lowe makes for a refreshingly wimpy and reluctant hero while Swanson registers strongly as a very fair and appealing maiden in distress. Popping up in snazzy bits are the ever-amiable Richard Farnsworth as a folksy, friendly ol' fuddy dud gas station proprietor, Pamela Gidley as a helpful motorcycle mama, 80's hard rock icon Lita Ford as a crazed hitch-hiker, stand-up comic Gilbert Gottfried as a raving neurotic Hitler, and Kevin Peter Hall as the eyeless captain of a boat which travels across the river Styx. Robin Vidgeon's bright, dazzling cinematography and a way cool bluesy'n'funky score by Hidden Faces further enhance the marvelously idiosyncratic merriment to be found in this one-of-a-kind flaky favorite.
