フィルム・ノワール
Road movies are blended with other genres to create a number of subgenres, including: road horror (e.g., "Near Dark" from 1987); road comedies (e.g., "Flirting with Disaster" from 1996); road racing films (e.g., "Death Race 2000" from 1975) and rock concert tour films (e.g., "Almost Famous" from 2000). Film noir road movies include "Detour" (1945), "Desperate", "The Devil Thumbs a Ride" (1947) and "The Hitch-Hiker" (1953), all of which "establish fear and suspense around hitchhiking", and the outlaw-themed film noirs "They Live by Night" (1948) and "Gun Crazy". Film noir-influenced road films continued in the neo noir era, with "The Hitcher" (1986), "Delusion" (1991), "Red Rock West" (1992), and "Joy Ride" (2001).
