If you're in the mood for a darkly comedic thriller with a twisted fairy tale hook, Freeway delivers trashy fun with genuine edge—it's the kind of cult classic that rewards adventurous viewers willing to embrace its weird tone. **YES, watch it tonight** if you want something off-the-beaten-path that subverts expectations.

Plot

Following the arrest of her mother, Ramona, young Vanessa Lutz decides to go in search of her estranged grandmother. On the way, she is given a ride by school counselor Bob Wolverton. During the journey, Lutz begins to realize that Bob is the notorious I-5 Killer and manages to escape by shooting him several times. Wounded but still very much alive, Bob pursues Lutz across the state in this modern retelling of Little Red Riding Hood.
