For more than two years, from 1962 to 1964, Boston women seemed to be at the mercy of a psychopathic killer. He began strangling and raping elderly women and then switched to younger women–a total of 13 victims–by the end of his reign of terror. Boston Police Department detective John S. Bottomly (Henry Fonda) directs the investigation, and it is not until one victim, Diane Cluny (Sally Kellerman), survives her attack and reports that she bit her attacker's hand that the clues fit together and lead to the capture of serial killer Albert DeSalvo (Tony Curtis). 1 User Review
