Michael Rooker Reteams With 'HENRY: PORTRAIT OF A SERIAL KILLER' Director For New Flick 'ROAD RAGE'

It’s been decades since HENRY: PORTRAIT OF SERIAL KILLER shocked audiences and it still has a visceral hold on those who have seen it since. The film launched the careers of Michael Rooker and director John McNaughton. The pair are at it once again with a new film entitled Road Rage.

Per Deadline, Road Rage is intended to be the first in a series.

The film “will center on a serial killer who only kills those who deserve to die—presenting a modern hero who is a bad guy gone good, protecting the innocent and punishing the guilty.”

“I’d wanted to work with Michael Rooker again since Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer, but we never got the chance. Finally, I wrote a story that took the genre in a whole new direction,” McNaughton told the outlet. “Michael Rooker as Stony; he drives a truck… and kills people. Stony is the ultimate serial killer… with a twist, and he’s going home now after twenty years, to settle a score from the past.”

Tim Perell will produce the vigilante thriller through his banner, Process Media, and said, “With Road Rage, John McNaughton and Michael Rooker aim once again to create a transgressive and shocking film that will exist at the cutting edge of art and genre. As Henry was ahead of its time, so Road Rage will be ahead of this time; both a disturbing and exhilarating reflection of contemporary American culture.”

Michael Rooker being involved in anything remotely horror worthy has us ready and excited for what’s to come.

In addition to Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer, McNaughton’s films include Mad Dog and Glory. Rooker’s credits include Suicide Squad, Guardians Of The Galaxy, “The Walking Dead,” and Slither.
