Kicks just got easier to find.
OK so I'm doing a bit of a road movie binge. And I have to say it's limited to those of the American sort (the others may have roads in them but they don't count).
I'm trying to find the stuff mostly for free online, this website stagevu is giving me the most and due to copyright laws being short on movies everything before about 1986 seems up for grabs.
So the list begins with the easy ones:
Easy Rider
Vanishing Point
Gone in 60 seconds (1974)
The Car (1977)
Christine
The Duel
Ruckus in Madison County
Death Race 2000
Cannonball
Natural Born Killers
Convoy
To be honest I'm not sure if Christine really counts as a road movie as it's not about a journey or a chase. But if you can add anything to this list then I'm all ears as I'm running out of ideas.

And a film I haven't watched in a few years, Candy Mountain.

Permalink Reply by Mike Humsgreen on Dirty Mary and Crazy Larry is ticked. It also has the traditional road movie ending, death! It's one reason why the original Gone in 60 seconds is so good, you think the guys going to take the story to its logical conclusion and then he gets away with a stroke of luck. I'm tracking down the others :)
