Smith, a mob informer hiding out with the Witness Protection Program, decides to make a break for it and hide out in the Arizona desert.

In the course of getting Smith away from the mafia thugs, the pair of agents assigned to protect him turn onto an abandoned stretch of highway nicknamed 'Route 666' after the mysterious death of a prison chain gang. As the three continue on their way, they soon discover just what happened to the chain gang, and how the highway earned its name.

Copped this one on a Lou Diamond Philips kick. It's bad, but actually not as bad as I was maybe expecting. Feels very _Masters of Horror_, if you go in expecting that sort of material, it won't make _Route 666_ good, but there can be a time and a place for that. _Final rating:★★ - Had some things that appeal to me, but a poor finished product._
