Inhaltsangabe: Late one night when
Karen Wilson's (Inger Stevens) husband has left for a trip, a stranger
named Manuel Sanchez (Christopher Dark) begins beating on the door. He
asks to use the phone, claiming he's having problems with his car. Out of
distrust, Karen refuses entrance, forcing him to go elsewhere for help.
Later that evening, she is shocked to learn that while Sanchez was walking
to the nearest service station, his girl friend was still waiting at the
run-down car, and was attacked and left on the beach. Sanchez blames Karen
for his girlfriend's death, promising to get revenge. Karen, however,
suspects her next door neighbor, Simon Carter (Dan O'Herlihy), may be the
guilty party, probably hearing the commotion outside, from the night
before. She confirms her suspicions, particularly when Carter shows up
drunk and three boys "save" her from Carter's sexual advances - not
realizing that the three boys are the real killers. Confessing to Karen
that they attacked the girl who died earlier that day, Karen will be their
next victim. What the boys don't know is what happens next!
