Synopsis: An unknown assailant has been attacking women in the college town of Woodside and it looks like medical student Daphne (Vera Miles) might be next on the list. Despite all of the nefarious goings-on, Daphne doesn't seem too concerned about walking through the woods alone at
night or keeping doors and windows shut and locked. Her psychologist boyfriend (Jeffery Hunter)suggests she become a decoy to draw the attacker out into the open. Should be the makings of of a top rate thriller but.....
Quick Review: This episode is pretty much DOA from the git-go due to the cartoonish portrayals by the principle characters as an unbalanced bunch given to silly psycho babble and involving themselves in just generally
inconceivable situations. Probably the weakest season one offering.
Rating: D
