An alcoholic horror novelist (Chris Sarandon), suffering from writer's block, agonizes over his next novel while a real-life serial killer stalks small-town Maine. Catherine Mary Stewart and Vlasta Vrana co-star as the cops on the trail, but the real mystery here is why these three talented actors accepted a payday in this anaemic, sleep-inducing whodunit. I guess it was just that -- a payday.
Maine's premiere horror novelist, Stephen King, has nothing to fear from this Canadian thriller (and I use that word loosely) -- there are enough red herrings and telegraphed punches here that director Bradshaw should have issued a spoiler warning. You don't need Sherlock Holmes to solve this one.
