As a boy, Arthur killed his mum and her boyfriend. As an adult, Arthur (James Courtney) escapes from a mental institution after killing everyone in his path.
Meanwhile, after catching her cheating boyfriend in the act, Linda (Loren Winters) walks out, having no idea what's about to occur. A fight for survival begins when she encounters sinister hillbillies. Said hicks are the least of Linda's problems! Arthur soon arrives to "save" her for himself. Managing to escape his grasp, Linda goes back to her life as an actor.
Arthur will now do anything to relocate her.
THE FREEWAY MANIAC is a high-octane, 1980's hyper-schlock masterwork! Every possible misfire: Visible microphone, heinous "acting", doofus dialogue, clunky set pieces, etc., are here! What should be drawbacks are assets in this criminally inept classic!
The truly sublime idiocy starts when Arthur tracks Linda down on the set of her new sci-fi epic! Pure platinum! Watch this immediately!...
