'Freeway Killer' is the modern-day take on highway maniac and Vietnam veteran William Bonin.
I think it's safe to say that Bonin was doing his thing up and down the 101 at the same time as Randy Craft and Hillside Strangler. LA freeways in the 70s and 80s were pure murder. An express way to the afterlife.
Bonin's brought in to be interviewed, and he looks like Kemper wearing Dahmer's glasses. All throughout the movie, I picked up Kemper more than Bonin.
The guy playing Bonin kind of looks like C. Thomas Howell from that 'Hillside Strangler' movie.
Already, he's strangled the life out of the first victim, and his accomplice, Vern, is along for the ride. He hung himself in real life, right?
The guy playing Bonin looks like David Grohl.
He picks up an apprentice and shows him the ropes, like in the vein of 'Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer.' Master and apprentice.
As if you'd risk breaking in a stranger to your world of murder.
All the violence in the movie is excessive and pulls no punches. It'd be uncomfortable for surviving family members to view some of this material and know what their loved ones were put through.
It's disgusting watching Bonin cruise around and select young boys to his liking. Despicable lifestyle.
I once owned Bonin's prison-issued "Doing Time" book but just gave it away to a friend in Illinois.
Even though a chapter was dedicated to Halloween in his book, I found the read mundane and nothing special.
Beating Vern down is the end result of Bonin's apprentice planting a seed in his head to eliminate him as a witness.
Check out Vern sporting the new look in fashion. I don't think sporting your tighty whities while wearing cowboy boots and holding a hammer will see anyone rush out and look into the image.
I heard a rumor that Agent Orange was partially responsible for Bonin's actions.
The movie focuses solely on Bonin's side of the story, and only a minor part is dedicated to any detective work.
The movie's dedicated most of its time to Bonin's handywork, while the police side of the story only bubbles under the surface.
Bonin starts having his 'Goodfellas' moment when the bird in the sky starts surveilling his every move while he's only concerned about not overheating the tomato sauce.
His paranoia takes control and starts to assume everyone's out to get him, even 'Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer.' If my eyes aren't deceiving me, is that the Karate Kid around the one-hour mark he just picked up from Reseda?
His crane kick will be no match for Bonin's insanity. And he only outweighs him by 150 pounds, or more.
Why do we watch or read about revolting people like this?
And why does history remember monsters like Dahmer and Bonin when we can't recall or name one of their victims?
Well, I can't.
The Karate Kid's crane kick couldn't save him, but LAPD can.
They interject Bonin mid-kill, arrest him, and it's none other than 'Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer' leading the charge in taking him down.
What, did Henry turn state's evidence?
The guy playing Bonin looks like Stanley from the Stephen King 'IT' miniseries.
He's strapped to an execution chair to be lethally injected, and I could give you an in-depth analysis of the three stages of lethal injection.
It's quite cruel and not the easy way out, like a lot of people are led to believe. All I can say is that I wouldn't give them the first injection, which is a sedative that probably somewhat alleviates the pain.
The movie only shows one injection administered.
There are two more that follow, which aren't shown in this movie.
Those two injections you want nothing to do with.
I don't know what's worse, the one that prevents you from screaming and asking for help or the big gob of salt that guns straight for your heart and fries it like a ten-thousand-watt microwave and dehydrates it in seconds. Apparently it also deprives you of oxygen to the brain, so it's the equivalent of drowning and being left brain dead as well.
As sick as the story is, there are fine performances by all involved, but it's an unhealthy storyline, and history shouldn't remember William Bonin or make movies and books out of him, but it does.
