1997 - 84m.

Somewhat old fashioned horror flick has a disfigured sociopath, who's been in an asylum nine years after killing his abusive mother, escaping while being transferred to another facility. This leads to a couple of murders and the kidnap of the youngest of two sisters who while moving cross country are unfortunate enough to pass his way.

Watchable and well paced low-budgeter has its predictable moments, but is mostly a competently made and enjoyable time with okay acting by the unknown cast.

Has one decent plot twist (regarding the killer's senses) and surprisingly very little violence, which in itself is refreshing these days.

Producer/writer/director Tharpe has made a decent little film here.
