Made shortly after the actual events it was based on this film is like a low-budget, way goofier version of that big 2007 David Fincher film. In fact one of the scenes is almost identical except the killer here clearly has a rubber knife and instead of stabbing anyone he just seems to be smearing red paint all over them while they badly act like they're dying. The whole thing starts out like a mystery where we meet a bunch of anti-social clowns who might be our killer then somewhere about halfway through they give up on that idea and just show us the guy who's responsible. One thing I couldn't help but notice is that this film sure doesn't give truck driving men a good name since the trucker fellow here seems like one of the biggest asshats I've seen in a movie in a while. He's a fat, pill-taking, gun-packing abusive ex-husband and father who hangs out in shitty bars wearing the world's most ridiculous wig and somehow this fucker gets four chicks to hang out with him?!(and one of them is even an Asian-lady which I give him extra-credit for). How the fuck does he pull that shit off?
An entertaining time-waster if you want to see one of the sillier proto-slasher flicks and the ending is neat since ol' Zodiac just taunts the audience and gives the big "fuck you" to society in general.
