…like a murderous Love Bug…

Red’s IMDb profile: no credits between 1996 (Bad Moon) and 2003 (The Hitcher II: I’ll Be Watching)

Red’s Wikipedia page is surprisingly sparse, given the highlights of his resume (Near Dark, The Hitcher), and given the severity and egregiousness of the car wreck he caused.

LA Weekly retrospective article about the case, and David Roos’ and Noah Baum’s deaths: Baum was in the bar, Q’s, to celebrate his first trial victory as a lawyer.

O, the horror:

• Hitcher, The: Rutger Hauer, Jennifer Jason Leigh, C. Thomas Howell, Jeffrey DeMunn
• The Hitcher (Widescreen Edition): remake with Sophia Bush and Sean Bean
• The Hitcher II: I’ve Been Waiting: C. Thomas Howell again, Kari Wuhrer, and Jake Busey
• Near Dark [Blu-ray]: milestone vampire movie, with Lance Henriksen, Bill Paxton, and Jenny Wright
• 100 Feet (Unrated and Uncut): Famke Janssen, Bobby Cannavale
• Bad Moon: Mariel Hemingway, Michael Paré

Apparently he has turned his hand to graphic novels? Again with the facial/neck blood: Containment

Oh, yeah. And syncope? Calling shenanigans.

If you have ever seen his movies, you can realize what his mental health is.
