Amateur journalist Edmund Bigelow (Kip Pardue) becomes obsessed with the gruesome onstage magic of Montag the Magnificent (Crispin Glover), who seems to violently murder his female volunteers before the audience's very eyes. It's all an act, of course, until Bigelow discovers that the women are turning up dead -- days later -- from their supposedly illusionary wounds. Jeremy Kasten directs this creepy remake of the 1970 original.
