#Joy ride 3 movie

His face is seen within the first five minutes of the movie and is shown on multiple occasions thereafter, although his hat is often pulled down over his eyes.

The Faceless: Averted for Rusty this time around.

Evil Sounds Deep: Rusty Nail has a guttural voice and is probably at his cruelest in this movie.

Dumb Blonde: Candy the meth head seems a little slow and erratic during the conversation with her boyfriend, as well as taking a little bit to get, and start helping with his plan to lure Rusty (although this is more likely due to being an Addled Addict and/or being hesitant about robbing someone).

Disproportionate Retribution: All of the film's protagonists harmed Rusty Nail in varying ways, but none of their wrongdoings warrant the gruesome deaths he deals out as punishment and Austin (although admittedly he had insulted him earlier) and Jewel were going to to alert the authorities to get help after thinking he might be hurt after the drag race when he first attacked them.

Deadly Rotary Fan: Shows up when Rusty uses his truck's engine fan to dispatch one of his victims.

She ends up dying while Alyssa, who comes off as a disposable supporting victim, survives the film instead. She's the biggest name of the teen cast, a fairly Nice Girl, dating The Hero, and even taken hostage by Rusty with a large amount of emphasis placed on saving her life. While Jordan is clearly The Hero of the movie, Jewel, his girlfriend, is set up to be the co-lead and Final Girl. In this film and the one before it he just kills left and right.

Darker and Edgier: In the first film, Rusty only kills about two people to throw the police off of his trail and the main group of teens who tricked him is left intact this suggests that his primary goal was to teach the group a lesson.

Throughout the film we see Rusty shove one guy's hands, and later face, into the cooling fan of his truck engine use a electric winch and chain to drive a bunch of bolts slowly and painfully into another guy's skull etc.

Cruel and Unusual Death: All over the place.

Creepy Good: Barry the trucker is a bit unsettling to be around, with his intense warnings and twitchy smiles, but his warning to stay away from Rusty's highway that has been dubbed 'Slaughter Alley' for all of the people Rusty's killed on it is an earnest one that could have saved several lives if followed.

Played straighter in an extended version of the scene, where the guy appears suddenly with a wrench in his hand after Jewel and Alissa go inside, but then this is explained when he apologizes for scaring them and says he was working on his car in the garage and didn't hear them at first. It's merely the fact that the characters are rattled after their run in with Rusty that has them creeped out already. The gas station attendant, while having a slightly vacant stare, is a fairly pleasant, non-threatening guy.

Creepy Gas Station Attendant: Averted.

The Coroner Doth Protest Too Much: Officer Jenkins believes that two bodies ripped apart by Rusty's truck are victims of an animal attack.

Cool Car: The racing team's heavily customized Subaru Impreza.

That being said, he also believes that the killer is a satanist, and that that there is an NSA communications-jamming system and socialist pot smugglers out there, making it harder for Jordon and Austin to take him seriously.

#Joy ride 3 serial

Conspiracy Theorist: Barry is completely on the money with his warnings that there is a serial killer stalking the highway.

Childhood Friends: Mickey the crews mechanic has been Jordon's buddy since sixth grade.

The Cavalry Arrives Late: Williams and several other cops arrive right after the climax.

Cassandra Truth: The group really should have listened to Barry about not taking that shortcut, although to be fair, the fact that there was a cop near by denying his claims helped.
