Eddie Macon's Run
Eddie Macon is running from a nightmare... running to a dream... and running for his life.
Directed by Jeff Kanew
Produced by Universal Pictures
A tense, propulsive chase thriller driven by a man's desperation to reunite with his family while evading a relentless pursuer.
Eddie Macon is running from a nightmare... running to a dream... running for his life and his time is running out. He's escaped a Texas prison for the second time (risking life imprisonment if caught) to make it back to his wife and son. Relentlessly pursued by ruthless truant officer, Carl Marzack, who feels he must prove he can still 'get his man' by returning Macon to jail at any cost.
