The Night Stalker was one of the best made-for-TV movies ever made. It was so popular that a sequel, The Night Strangler, was made and then the short-lived Kolchak television series. Both of these films (mine came on a double-sided DVD) are sensational. McGavin's Karl Kolchak is one of the greatest characters ever. And the supporting cast is great as well, particularly Simon Oakland. The Night Stalker is set in Las Vegas, where a vampire appears to be on the loose, and only Kolchak stands in his way--since no one else will believe him. The Night Strangler is set is the underground world of Seattle and manages to be just as good. You won't find a more entertaining double feature than this one. ( )
