This movie is a confusing mess. A doctor at an asylum says he’s going to tell us the story of his patient. A man runs down the street. Cut to his feet running quickly and then two other feet lumbering along. I don’t think the first guy needs to be that concerned, but he runs into a car and rolls across the hood before sprinting off.
The next day two cops are assigned to investigate some gang murders, which I guess are related to the guy from the night before. They aren’t happy about being on the case. They interrogate some people and we find out there is a man named Spongey who got beat up.
Meanwhile Horst aka Bloodhound calls in a warning to the radio station. It’s not aired since they don’t broadcast warnings from random strangers. Horst dictates to a tape recorder, stumbling over the dialogue as he goes, and prompting you to wonder why they didn’t bother to reshoot the scene.
I have no idea what’s going on and it doesn’t clarify things when there is a close up of a man’s eyes while a male and female voice talk in an echo chamber. Is it in his head? Is he crazy? Then we see video of a woman. So he’s remembering something that happened to him?
We learn that Edward is a Vietnam vet who lost his wife and child. He used to be a probation officer and now he just feels like killing. He’s got a girlfriend who keeps her own 8x10 glossy head shot by her bed.
Apparently a transfusion from infected blood can make the recipient seek vengeance for wrong doings. The illness is elevated at half moon and by full moon they’re a demon. You can’t destroy the demon, but you can stop him. Then they say there is a special weapon to destroy its heart… so you can destroy it?
This movie is a confusing mess. Often I had no idea what was going on. Multiple characters flub their lines and the filming continues. When the demon is shot, he starts singing. Why? And why does his girlfriend have an 8x10 glossy of herself next to her bed?
Ridiculous dialogue
Your station became a legitimate accomplice to murder last night.
You didn’t get that knot on the onion by beating up on Spongey, right?
Suppose you and the other jive asses got people pissed off enough to become vigilantes.
If you really have the American public’s beset interest at heart, why hide behind some penny ante name like Bloodhound?
Someone’s been living there like Goldilocks without the three bears.
As sick as he is, he has sense enough to try to keep clean.

Nothing award about this |

Look at this as you listen to a man and woman talk |

Why does she have her own head shot by her bed? |

Demon cop and his odd physique |

This wheelchair shot made me laugh. |
