KILLJOY 1981 (WARNER)

This is a very well made TV movie from 1981.

I had seen this at the time it came out and it impressed me so much I never forgot it. Now I finally got to watch it again, and it's just as good as it was 40 some years ago.

The movie opens with the brutal murder of a young blonde woman by a killer you never see. This actually starts a very tangled web of deceit and lies that always keeps the viewer guessing.

Stephen Macht stars as Max Heller, a young doctor who happens to be engaged to a grogeous woman named Laury Medford (Kim Basinger). His best friend is Dr. Paul Trenton (John Rubenstein) and all three get tangled in the murder when a mysterious man named Lou Corbin (Robert Culp) stars showing up everywhere they go.

Sometimes it's hard to keep up with all the plot twists, but that is a good thing with movies like this. All of the actors give it their all and it work well with director John Moxey's talent.

I don't want to give much away as it will spoil the fun of watching this movie, but the ending is a good twist. Basinger looks sexy as hell which makes watching this even better than it already was.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this well made thriller.
