Review – Night Game

If the drama in this movie didn’t loosely relate to the late 1980s Houston Astros, it would be little more than just another tiresome serial killer movie. Even with the baseball thrown in, it’s still pretty heavy on the he-man woman hating thing. Roy Scheider plays a hard-boiled detective on the trail of a hook killer who slaughters skinny blondes every time a certain pitcher gets a win. I liked a lot of the footage from Galveston and the Astrodome, but other than that there are plenty of better thrillers out there. Mildly amusing
