Horror Vault's take

A legendary horror star begins to question whether his brand of old-fashioned screen terror still holds any meaning in a changing world — and the answer arrives in the most chilling way imaginable. Across town, a clean-cut young man slides into a quiet, methodical killing spree that feels disturbingly mundane rather than monstrous. Director Peter Bogdanovich weaves these two trajectories toward a collision that forces audiences to confront which kind of horror is truly scarier. Rooted in real events and shot with an almost documentary matter-of-factness, the film remains an unnervingly relevant meditation on violence in America.
