THE HOSTAGE(1967)
In the set: 100 Greatest Cult Classics


Bratty boy gets himself in deep shit by stowing
away in a moving van that has picked up his
family's stuff! Turns out the movers are not
just movers, but killers too! Way too predictible! C-

From a reviewer at IMDb.com:

THE HOSTAGE is a low budget, gritty drama of
1967 put out by Crown International Pictures.
It's worth watching to see some quiet but
engaging performances from the principal cast
members, although the plot is long-winded
which makes this feel more of a mood piece
than anything else. The story has an annoying
kid accidentally stowing himself away in a
removal truck being driven by a psychopath.
He becomes a hostage while his parents act
frantically and the police pursue. There's
really not too much here of interest, if
I'm honest, but Don Kelly is an effectively
sweaty, on-the-edge psycho, and Harry Dean
Stanton is as likable as ever he
was. - Leofwine_draca
