SYNOPSIS

Someone's Watching Me (1978) This TV movie, directed by John Carpenter, tells the story of Leigh Michaels (Lauren Hutton) who is slowly stalked to the brink of madness by a man watching her from the opposite tower block. Her attempt to get the police to take her seriously leaves her with no option but to track him down herself.

The Hand (1981) Oliver Stone directs this tale about a comic book artist who loses his right hand in a car accident. The hand is not found at the scene of the accident, but soon it returns to follow Jon (Michael Caine) around, and murder those who anger him.

Deadly Friend (1986) Wes Craven directs this tale of Paul, a new kid in town with a robot named “BB” whose only real friend is a neighborhood girl named, Samantha (Kristy Swanson). When Samantha’s abusive father throws her down some stairs and kills her, Paul implants BB’s computer brain into Samantha’s human brain.

From Beyond the Grave (1973) The anthology film adapted from four short stories by R. Chetwynd-Hayes strung together about an antique dealer (Peter Cushing) who owns a shop called Temptations Ltd. and the fate that befalls his customers who try to cheat him.

Eyes of a Stranger (1981) An enterprising local news anchor discovers that one of her neighbors is actually the serial killer/rapist who has been terrorizing the city. She must prove her suspicions before the killer gets to her and her deaf and blind sister (Jennifer Jason Leigh).
