Plot Overview

The owner of a printing plant that burned down seeks help from the detectives. His neighbor, who lost his wife and daughter when the fire spread to his house, is stalking him in revenge.

Memorable Moments

Max Evar (Nehemiah Persoff) operates a fun house at an amusement park. He invites both Flint and Norman Garry (Leslie Nielsen) to the fun house, locks the detective in a supposedly escape-proof room and sets the fun house in motion to terrify Garry, all the while watching on a closed-circuit television. Persoff is truly scary in this scene, and Nielsen, as the object of his terror, delivers an equally good performance.
