The premise

When the teenagers in a small Illinois town start getting murdered, the police chief makes a connection to the mysterious scientific experiments being done at the local university and must stop them before his own son is dragged into the deadly scheme.

Horror Vault's take

A quiet Illinois town is shaken when its teenagers begin turning up dead, and the local police chief finds himself drawn into a web of sinister experiments conducted at the nearby university. As the body count rises, the investigation hits uncomfortably close to home when his own son's curiosity puts him in the crosshairs of whoever — or whatever — is behind the killings. Blending small-town mystery with mad-science dread, Strange Behavior delivers an offbeat early-eighties genre cocktail that defies easy categorization. The New Zealand production unit lends the familiar American setting an subtly alien quality that only deepens the unease.
