Blood Star

Roberta drives her rickety Ford Mustang through the New Mexico desert. She wants to go home. But the honorable Sheriff Bilstein has other plans for her. The only law enforcement officer in the county knows his position of omnipotence and how he can live out his psychopathic urges. His prey: young women traveling alone in old cars. A nerve-wracking cat-and-mouse chase begins.

It's not just Roberta who gets shivers down her spine, but us too, as Bilstein's perfidious games escalate further and further. The crazy cop behind the mirrored sunglasses doesn't bat an eyelid: is the star-wearer having harmless fun or does he pose a real threat? Is he a repeat offender? The vast and lonely wasteland in the blazing heat becomes an inescapable trap for Roberta.
