This guy *SPOILERS*
Was one of the most cold blooded proficient killers I've ever seen on screen. And smart too devilishly smart. The Phantom Killer was smarter than most serial killers right up there with the Night Stalker, the Zodiac Killer, Jack the Ripper and the Boston Strangler (the real killer George Nasar not Albert DeSalvo) who were also never punished for their crimes. He knew his business he could have been a top notch hitman if he wasn't so crazy. Always wore a mask, gloves, and used a silenced handgun unlike most serial killers who do not use firearms not because they don't like them but because they cannot afford them plus they make loud noises. It was also interesting that he was a sadist and perversely driven by sex (like most serial killers) but not interested in raping just torture and killing because it thrilled him. I bet if he was still alive when this movie came out he got a real kick out of the attention so many years later. He could be alive and moved on, he could be in jail, he could have drowned in the swamps, he could have died from NC, or he could be living in Texarkana right now. I just wish they would have caught him because he was one sick cookie.
