When two young lovers are savagely beaten and tortured on a back country road in Texarkana, local police are baffled and must find "the Phantom Killer" before he can kill again.
Editor's Verdict
"This film is a true crime/slasher horror film entirely focused on a serial killer investigation. The only noted 'Christmas Element' is 'Holiday Release,' which has no bearing on the actual narrative, setting, plot, or themes of the movie."
