Bob plays yet another grumpy police lieutenant in one of his many "cop" roles ...
This one comes in 15 parts - and stars Ken Wahl (Wiseguy) and Nancy Allen (Robocop).
Here's an IMDB synopsis:
"A homicidal maniac is on the loose, killing motorists at random in his "death car" - after losing his brother to the twisted assassin "Skull," Rick Benton becomes a vigilante, and takes it upon himself to hunt down the reckless drivers that fill the streets at night. Being a master mechanic, Rick spends his time converting his pickup truck into an armed and dangerous vehicle - with speed to take on the fastest car, and strength to make sure in a one-on-one situation, he will be the only survivor. The cops soon find out about the vigilante known only as the "Gladiator" and do all they can to catch him before his citizen's arrests go one step too far - but will they find the Gladiator before the Gladiator finds Skull? When the two finally meet, it's a duel to the death and maybe an end to Rick's career as the vigilante."
You get the idea!! Not one of my favorites, folks - but happy to pass it along so you can add another notch to your Classic Culp Viewing Experiences.
Bob is in and out in this Movie of the Week, but you can see him in action at the beginning of Part 9.
Don't worry about coming in at the middle - it honestly makes no difference. Enjoy!
