''The Night Brings Charlie'' is a 1990 horror film directed by Tom Logan, and written by Bruce Carson. == Plot == In the small town of Pakoe, Shannon Davis is beheaded by a man whose face is concealed by a burlap sack and swimming goggles. Investigating this homicide and a previous one are new sheriff Carl Carson, and mortician Walt Parker. As the bodycount rises and the killer begins taunting the police, suspicion falls on Charlie Puckett, a gardener who wears a mask similar to the serial killer's due to being disfigured by a chainsaw. Charlie is brought in for questioning, but refuses to talk, so Carson brings in Walt, who served with Charlie in the Vietnam War. Walt gets a confession out of Charlie, but Carson has doubts about Charlie's guilt, so he sets a trap in his office, which flushes out the real killer, Walt. Carson explains that he had looked into Walt's history, and discovered that he had dismembered a teenage civilian in Vietnam, though the charges were dropped. When Carson mentions that he had Charlie released from custody, Walt panics, and claims that Charlie is just like him; Charlie helped him kill the Vietnamese girl, and was the one who murdered all of the Pakoe victims after Shannon Davis. Carson leaves to look for Charlie, and Walt is allowed to call home by the officer left to guard him. Walt's daughter Tanya tells him that Jenny, his stepdaughter, has left to explore the abandoned barn where Charlie is living. Fearing for Jenny's safety, Walt escapes custody and heads to the barn. Charlies arrives at the barn (after killing several people, and wounding Carson) and corners Jenny, who is saved by Tanya. As the sisters flee Charlie, they accidentally shoot their father with Carson's gun, though as a last act Walt saves his daughters by setting Charlie on fire. The next day, Carson and his men scour the lake Charlie ran into, but the search is called off by the district attorney, who prematurely closes the case, content with stating that Walt was responsible for all of the murders. As the sheriff laments that it is not over, Charlie is shown picking up a female hitchhiker on the outskirts of town. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Night Brings Charlie」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
