Description: Pre-viewed for quality and it played fine visually even though the sourceprint is color faded. The sound is mono and had to be cranked a way up in the begining. Got better later in the film. The cassette has unique light blue colored reels with a store branded security sticker on the right endcap assuring you of first generation quality. Cassette also has narrow 'please rewind tape' sticker across the bottom edge of the top label and a small dry sticker stain on the right window. Box has been cut and mounted in a white hard plastic clamshell keepcase with a small 'horror' sticker on the top left spine. The film opens along the coastline of Potter's Bluff, where a photographer has stopped to snap a few nature shots. A beautiful young woman strikes up a conversation with him and asks whether she could be a model. The photographer offers to take her picture, and she responds in an unusually seductive manner. Unfortunately, their romantic idyll is shattered when a group of strangers suddenly appear, tie up the hapless photographer, douse him with gasoline, and set him ablaze while recording his death throes via photographs and film. Later the town sheriff, Dan (Farentino), is called in to investigate a car crash, which has left its victim burned beyond recognition. Dan begins to suspect that the burning occured outside the accident, a theory he attempts to sell to the quirky local coroner, William Dobbs (Jack Albertson in his final role). Dan's tranquil home life with his beautiful wife, Janet, becomes strained as Dan is convinced that a mounting number of gruesome accidents could be related to the occult. Even worse, the victims have a nasty habit of coming back to life... and taking their place among the townspeople. Genre fans in particular should watch for an early cameo by 'Freddy Krueger' himself, Robert Englund. This item is posted and managed courtesy of Bonanza
