| Overview: | You don't have to be scared of the dark, just of what's in it...!
Well-acted, wild, cross-genre mix of sci-fi and horror starring William Devane as a writer who takes a personal interest in a series of baffling decapitation murders in the L.A. area--all of which seem to indicate some kind of supernatural force at work. At night "The Mangler" stalks the streets of Los Angeles, killing and mutilating one random victim every night. Also on the murder trail is a TV reporter (Cathy Lee Crosby), and a police detective (Richard Jaeckel). But despite their efforts, only a mysterious psychic DeRenzy (Jacquelyn Hyde) knows what the killer really is and how to stop it.
