the night stalker (1972)

"Judge for yourself its believability, and then try to tell yourself, wherever you may be, it couldn't happen here."
Old School reporter Carl Kolchak (Darren McGavin), relates in voice over his investigation into a serial killer in Las Vegas. His digging reveals that all the victims had been drained of blood and he begins to think that there may be a vampire on the prowl. Unfortunately when he voices his concerns to the authorities they naturally think he's loosing it. So it's up to Kolchak to stop the murderer himself.
A TV movie that develops into a fascinating and unsettling story, due to its unsensational style. It made enough of an impact to become a tv series, Kolchak: The Night Stalker and in turn became a cult classic.
