Lee Grant stars as outspoken TV journalist Deborah Ballin, whose crusade against domestic violence enrages a creepy loner (Michael Ironside). He brutally attacks the anchorwoman in her home, but Ballin survives and is hospitalized. Her assailant is enraged; he is haunted by a horrific childhood trauma. He enjoys inflicting torture and slow death. And now he as hidden inside the hospital to finish what he started. Can anybody - including her concerned boss (William Shatner), a frantic nurse (Linda Purl), or Deborah herself - stop this psycho's killing spree before it reaches sick new extremes?
