Beast of the Red Highway

In 1968 America, an outlaw named Jace — a grease-stained drifter with a muscle car and a disdain for flags — stumbles on a roadside carcass that hides the impossible: a hulking, irradiated creature born from clandestine Cold War experiments. Hunted by military intelligence and Soviet couriers, Jace forms a ragged convoy of hitchhikers, ex-GIs and hippies, barreling across midnight highways to expose the plot. Between gas-station prophets, cracked AM broadcasts and ferocious car chases, the film blends paranoia, rebellion and the fierce speed of a nation unmade.
