Brian Kessler, a journalist researching serial killers, and his photographer girlfriend Carrie set out on a cross-country tour of the sites of the killings. Sharing the ride and their expenses are Early Grayce, a paroled white trash criminal, and his girlfriend Adele. As the trip progresses, Early begins to appear more and more unstable, and Brian and Carrie begin to fear that they may have a real-life killer in the back seat of their car.

The locations where the serial killer events take place are related to the names of the actors in the movie. Lewiston Ranch, Mt. Juliet, TX (Juliette Lewis); Forbes, TN (Michelle Forbes; Davidson Mine, Dew Cove, NV (David Duchovny); Bradbury Textile Warehouse in Pittsburgh, PA (Brad Pitt).

Brian Kessler:
You know, I didn't know this about you, I didn't know you were so prejudice.


Carrie Laughlin:
Oh please, because when someone takes of their shoe and scratches their foot while I'm eating and you call me prejudice?


Brian Kessler:
He can't help the way he was raised. I kinda feel sorry for him.


Carrie Laughlin:
You feel sorry for him. That's so sweet. You obviously didn't get a whiff of that sock!


Brian Kessler:
Bitch, bitch, bitch!

Continuity: Early Grayce seems to be driving two different Pontiac Grand Prix in the opening scenes; the headlights differ.
