comment
Darker and Edgier: In the first film, Rusty only kills about two people to throw the police off of his trail and the main group of teens who tricked him is left intact; this suggests that his primary goal was to teach the group a lesson. In this film and the one before it, he just kills left and right.

Conspiracy Theorist: Barry is completely on the money with his warnings that there is a serial killer stalking the highway. That being said, he also believes that the killer is a Satanist and that there is an NSA communications-jamming system and socialist pot smugglers out there, making it harder for Jordon and Austin to take him seriously.

Disproportionate Retribution: All of the film's protagonists harmed Rusty Nail in varying ways, but none of their wrongdoings warrant the gruesome deaths he deals out as punishment and Austin (although admittedly he had insulted Rusty earlier) and Jewel was going to alert the authorities to get help after thinking he might be hurt after the drag race when he first attacked them.

 Joy Ride 3: Roadkill / int_59907e4f
comment
Police Are Useless: Zigzagged. Jenkins isn't very helpful and doesn't believe that there are any crimes, but Williams is a decent investigator who does believe that there's a killer out there, notices the signs that Rob and Candy were probably killed by a truck, and acts accordingly after finding the crashed car, as well as when encountering a potential suspect. Jenkins also gets a little redemption by believing the kids' story and hurrying to go follow the trucker he saw passing by. The rest of the cops also do a game job conducting roadblocks to try and trap Rusty Nail in the last act.

Creepy Good: Barry the trucker is a bit unsettling to be around, with his intense warnings and twitchy smiles. However, his warning to stay away from Rusty's highway which has been dubbed "Slaughter Alley" for all of the people Rusty's killed on it is an earnest one that could have saved several lives if followed.

Invincible Villain: By this film, Rusty has definitely reached this level. Sure, some of the heroes survive, but this is the third film in which Rusty has been caught in a situation in which there was no way whatsoever in which he wouldn't have survived his truck being destroyed without someone noticing he did, and he still does, merrily continuing to terrorize people on the highways.

I Lied: Rusty tells the meth heads he'll spare them if they can hang on the outside of his truck for a mile of driving. he doesn't, of course. Later, he also lies about keeping Jewel alive to Jordan and the others.

Hope Spot: Offer Williams is seen pulling over a truck leaving behind a blood trail and managing to handcuff the driver, while Jordon and the others trying to find Rusty notice a cop car up ahead. Then it turns out that they've come across Officer Jenkins, and the man who Williams is in the process of arresting turns out to be a second trucker who Rusty tricked into taking a crate with the bodies.

Pit Girls: Jewel and Alisa both wear the outfits and serve the roles, although they also have other jobs on the team (business manager and media expert). Austin even lampshades that their outfits are improbably, unnecessarily sexualized.

Cassandra Truth: The group really should have listened to Barry about not taking that shortcut, although to be fair, the fact that there was a cop nearby denying his claims helped.

Schmuck Bait: Rusty forces two meth-heads who tried to rob him to ride on the front of his truck with their wrists chained to the drive axle. If they let go the chain will slacken, get caught in the U-joint and wrap around the axle, dragging them under the truck. Rusty promises them that if they can hold on for a mile he will not only let them go but give them a bag of meth which, he promptly tapes to the truck's windshield and if they try to grab it the chain will slacken. Three guesses what happens.

Moment of Weakness: Jordon is a fairly nice, sensible guy, but his refusal to call the police after Rusty gets run off the road is treated as a sleazy misdeed.

comment
Decoy Protagonist: To an extent. While Jordan is clearly The Hero of the movie, Jewel, his girlfriend, is set up to be the co-lead and Final Girl. She's the biggest name of the teen cast, a fairly Nice Girl, dating The Hero, and even taken hostage by Rusty with a large amount of emphasis placed on saving her life. She ends up dying while Alyssa, who comes off as a disposable supporting victim, survives the film instead.

comment
Creepy Gas-Station Attendant: Averted. The gas station attendant, while having a slightly vacant stare, is a fairly pleasant, non-threatening guy. It's merely the fact that the characters are rattled after their run-in with Rusty that has them creeped out already. Played straighter in an extended version of the scene, where the guy appears suddenly with a wrench in his hand after Jewel and Alissa go inside, but then this is explained when he apologizes for scaring them and says he was working on his car in the garage and didn't hear them at first.

Jerkass: Austin, the blank-faced diner waitress who ignores Jewel saying she doesn't want any coffee, and Rusty Nail himself (who Austin calls "an even bigger prick than me") are all strikingly abrasive.

Never Found the Body: Played very straight. The last we see of Rusty at the climax, he's unconscious inside of his truck as it's getting crushed and, even if he did woke up and escaped, he would have been clearly seen by someone. But he doesn't, and when the cops talk to the heroes at the end, they say that there were no human remains inside of the truck. Sure enough, aside from some limping, Rusty literally walks away as the film cuts to credits.
