The Los Angeles freeway shootings of a few years back served as the inspiration for this 1988 nailbiter. A crazed sniper picks off motorists at random, then taunts the authorities by providing cryptic clues to a radio psychiatrist. Sarah "Sunny" Harper (Darlanne Flugel), the fiancee of one of the victims, tries to piece together the evidence without official help, hopefully to beat the psycho at his own game. The tension level waxes and wanes until the extremely tense denouement. Freeway might prove to be a fascinating companion piece to another, less straightforward 1988 release, Freeway Maniac. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
