[edit] Plot
Rennie Cray embarks on a bloodthirsty rampage to avenge the death of his wife who was struck down by a serial killer, Fargo, a man who hunts and kills women using his '72 Cadillac Eldorado. After he successfully collides with Fargo on the highway, the latter is crippled and forced to replace much of his body with prosthetics. Cray is put away in jail for years.
When Rennie gets out he begins tracking Fargo again, who has made the El Dorado into an extension of his own body and continued on his hit-and-run spree, disguising his killings as accidents. When one of his victims escapes, Rennie takes it upon himself to protect her.
Meanwhile, Will Macklin, a state traffic investigator senses a coincidence and begins to pursue the now paranoid-sounding Cray, and Fargo plans to end his chase with his pursuer once and for all.
