Set against the desolate backdrop of Route 66, the story takes a wicked turn when Jim’s precious cargo, the beloved TV sensation chimpanzee Spanky, becomes an unwitting companion to the increasingly tense duo.

Based on a True Story
In 1964, the real-life chilling encounter between ice skater Dave Pitts, his chimpanzee Spanky, and a young hitchhiker amid a killing spree inspired Conrad Hilberry’s novel Luke Karamazov. This eerie tale comes to life in He Went That Way, Jeff Darling’s directorial debut. Tragically, Darling’s promising career was cut short by a 2022 surfing accident, leaving behind a visually striking legacy.
With stellar performances by Elordi and Quinto, this taut thriller keeps audiences on the edge of their seats.
