The Hitcher
Movie • 1986 • Horror
ReportOn a stormy night, young Jim, who transports a luxury car from Chicago to California to deliver it to its owner, feeling tired and sleepy, picks up a mysterious hitchhiker, who has appeared out of nowhere, thinking that a good conversation will help him not to fall asleep. He will have enough time to deeply regret such an unmeditated decision.

A k9 is left behind with no one alive in the jail. Not purposefully abandoned I guess but I'd count it.

The dog left at the police station looks a bit sad as it walks around, tbh.

If being torn in half counts as amputation. In that case, yes. It's off-screen though.

Eye mutilation is threatened, going so far as to point a knife at a person's eye, but it never occurs.

Early in the movie, Ryder has been picked up by a family with a young kid. Jim tries to warn the family, but swerves off the road and the family keeps driving away with Ryder.
Jim later comes across the family's car by the roadside, and apprehensively goes to check it out. The kid's and parents' bodies aren't shown, save for some blood dripping out of the car.

The main actor (C. Thomas Howell) walks up to a car on the side of the road, knowing the lethal hitcher was in that car, he stops to look inside the car. Some blood drips on his shoe (the family in the car was obviously slaughtered, but not shown) and he runs back to his car and it happens. Just skip ahead when he's looking in the Volkswagen bug and blood falls on his shoe. Audio and visual.
Also- while eating fries in a restaurant, the same man finds a severed finger in his fries. He runs outside and starts to v* but he could just be spitting out the food. Not very graphic and it's a quick scene and happens at a good distance. Visual. (Again, he may just be spitting out his food.. really quick and not too traumatic. )
