There's a real weirdo in this film. No, not the overweight, speccy guy who breaks into women's houses at night to rape and murder them, who also puts decapitated heads in aquariums. His problems are well-documented... Leave him alone.
I am referring to the blonde news reporter who lives nearby, and finds out the identity of this serial killer. Desperate to protect her disabled sister who lives with her and hasn't been able to see, hear or talk since she was assaulted at a young age by another pervert, what does our reporter do? Phone the police? OF COURSE NOT!! She BREAKS into the maniac's house to try and gather evidence, and leaves him mysterious PHONE-CALLS telling him she knows his guilt. This second action is particularly perplexing... seeing as she's on the TV news every night, didn't she think he might be able to recognize her voice?
Well he does of course, which leads him to her apartment, and a showdown with the news reporter's traumatized sibling. Thank goodness for that conveniently placed jug of hot coffee! Then, sister arrives JUST in the nick of time with a Colt. BANG BANG!! You're dead. That should be the end... But whaddoya know... the sister's ordeal has jogged her back to reality!! SHE CAN SEE, HEAR AND TALK AGAIN!! HURRAY!! A NATION CELEBRATES!! Apart from me, I roll my eyes, and start to wonder about my direction in life... 4/10
