About The Turnpike Killer
Hulking and vicious homicidal maniac Jon Beest hears voices that compel him to brutally butcher women. He dumps their bodies on the side of the road on the New Jersey Turnpike. It's up to troubled NYPD Homicide Detective Lloyd to catch Beest and put an end to his campaign of terror.
Directed by Evan Makrogiannis, Brian Weaver, The Turnpike Killer leans on a strong ensemble — Bill McLaughlin, Edgar Moye, Lyndsey Brown — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about horror titles of 2009.
