About Freeway Collection (1996 to 1999)
A pitch-black riff on ‘Little Red Riding Hood’, Freeway sees delinquent teen Vanessa Lutz (Witherspoon) on the run and heading for her grandmother’s house when she meets the silver-tongued Bob Wolverton (Kiefer Sutherland), who might just be the “I-5 Killer” leaving a trail of dead young women along the road. Meanwhile in Freeway II: Confessions of a Trickbaby, teenage sex worker Crystal “White Girl” Van Meter (Lyonne) escapes from juvie with 16-year-old serial killer “Cyclona” in tow and heads for Mexico in a deranged take on ‘Hansel and Gretel’.
