Sorcerer
Sorcerer (1977), William Friedkin:
This apparently is the movie that ruined Friedkin. A remake of the aforementioned Wages of Fear, Roy Scheider helms the truck across the jungles of South America. It's very much a straight-up remake, preserving the grey nihilism of the original. It's a little less earnest and a little more thrilling, but I think equally as good.
10/15
