I remember “405” well!

Suprised to see it is twenty years old!!!

From wiki:
The producers shot the film using a digital camcorder and created the special effects using personal computers, all on a budget of $300. Furthermore, $140 of the budget paid the fines of two traffic tickets for walking on the highway shoulder while filming, issued by California Highway Patrol Officer Dana Anderson, who is listed in the “Special Thanks” section of the credits.[1]

I know. I remember reading something about them filming the highway with traffic and splicing sections of film together where the cars weren't to make it look empty.

Very clever stuff.
