Tagline: Back in town... with a vengeance!  

Trivia: The film was inspired by real-life cases. The first was Richard Speck's murders of eight student nurses. The second was when a Scotland Yard investigator got fired from his job for planting evidence to convict a Thames River killer, and it turned out that the killer committed three murders before being convicted. The third case is that of Ted Bundy--to whom the actor playing the killer bears a striking resemblance--in that Bundy murdered young and beautiful women, he was good-looking and drove a Volkswagen Beetle.
 

Goofs: Continuity: When Warren is chasing Betty through the woods, he's wearing pants while running in some shots.
 

"A serial killer gets his kicks by knifing his victims while naked. A veteran cop, Leo Kessler believes that he has found the killer and plants fake evidence to obtain a conviction. When this "evidence" is discovered the killer is released, and plans his revenge by stalking Kessler's daughter... Written by Rhino <rhino@blueyonder.co.uk>"
