There is something especially freeing about being on the road, headed out on a long journey. It is the feeling of truly getting away from it all as home fades further and further into the rearview mirror.
If a long-distance road trip is on your list of summer adventures, I recommend watching one of my most frequently revisited thrillers from the late '90s before you pack your bags. Starring Kurt Russell, Kathleen Quinlan, and the late J.T. Walsh, "Breakdown" will give your next excursion a dark, gripping twist. It has remained one of my top rewatched thrillers over the years; no matter how many times I see it, the acting, the stark setting, and the twists and turns surprise me every time.
