The Toolbox Murders1978

Horror Vault's take

In the seedy corridors of a Los Angeles apartment complex, female tenants become targets of a methodical killer whose weapon of choice comes straight from the toolbox. When the carnage takes an unexpected turn and a teenage girl vanishes, official indifference forces her desperate brother to launch his own search for answers. This late-seventies shocker earns its notorious reputation with a raw, unrelenting ugliness that prioritizes dread over glamour. It remains a defining artifact of the era's most controversial exploitation cinema.
