Another Son of Sam

The actors are mostly local (Charlotte, NC) TV news talent, though the orderly really is a guy named Cely, escorting the deranged will-be killer, to Cynthia Stuart as Dr. Ellis, taking a call from her cop boyfriend (weatherman Russ Dubuc), with maybe clever banter, which is about how it goes, in the micro-budget slasher title Another Son Of Sam, 1977.

Something approaching a false promise, text recounting selected mass murders, especially the then-current New York “Son Of Sam” case, which is never mentioned in the film that follows, the opening presumably along the Catawba river around Belmont and Charlotte NC, where the low-rent slasher feature was shot, from Another Son Of Sam, 1977.
