Outside Goes to the Movies Outside Classics Best Vacation-Inspiring Odyssey The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001) An epic quest with the most eye-popping scenery on film. Sure, it's a fantasy involving furry-footed little men, but LOTR makes us want to trek through the mountains, across the plains, and under the forest canopy on our own New Zealand adventure. Best Bad-Weather Drama The Perfect Storm (2000) What began as a 1994 Outside feature by Sebastian Junger became a titanic best-selling book and a Hollywood blockbuster. But even when you know the real-life story of the Andrea Gail—a fishing boat caught in one of the most hellish nor'easters ever—the suspense and special effects are still hair-raising. Best Horror Flick (with Paddles) Deliverance (1972) Four friends set out on a river trip in Appalachia and wind up either dead or scarred for life. Starring Burt Reynolds and Jon Voight, the film teaches everything you never wanted to know about murder by bow and arrow, evil hillbillies, and the dark side of "city boy" egotism. Best Two-Wheeled Adventure The Motorcycle Diaries (2004) This portrait of the revolutionary as a young man features Gael García Bernal as the 23-year-old Che Guevara, who in 1951—when he was a med-school student—took a moto trip across South America with his friend Alberto Granado (Rodrigo De la Serna). If all odysseys were this transformative, there'd be a lot more hell-raisers in the world. Best Reason Not to Go Camping The Blair Witch Project (1999) Josh, Mike, and Heather are lost in a Maryland forest, hunted by an unseen force, and captured on camera looking justifiably terrified. Then they die. If only they'd remembered to bring the GPS! |
