Fred Williamson stars as a policeman named Dakota Smith, who has been having nothing but internal problems with the department, but soon something else gets his attention.
Dakota has a boss named Teak Taylor (Robert Forster) and he assigns him to a case involving a media obsessed serial killer who films his victims as he kills them. Assigned to help Dakota is officer Kristin O' Conner (Cynthia Rothrock).
They become involved with each other during the case and the killer targets Dakota on a personal level and this only enrages him. The Video Stalker" as he is dubbed by the media is very clever and manages to outsmart the police, but only for a while.
The killer kidnaps Kristin and Dakota must do his best to save her. This is a fast moving film and I enjoyed it even though it offered nothing new. I like Williamson is almost anything and this is no exception.
Robert Prentiss does a very good job as the psycho killer and almost manages to steal the show.
Rothrock does a credible job as well, and it's easy to see why she made a slew of similar films. If you like simple action movies, this is a film you might want to see. I saw it on streaming as it appeared on my recommended list. Not too shabby at all.
