Kolchak is witness to a bizarre manifestation when an unseen force decimates a building and causes a cache of lead ingots to vanish into thin air. He soon draws a connection between the disturbance and a series of incidents where both animals and human beings are turning up dead, the marrow mysteriously sucked out of their bones.

 

 

 

An old black woman uses voodoo to resurrect her dead son to kill those who murdered him, and to kill those like Kolchak who would interfere.

 

When a rash of serial murders suddenly begins in the Chicago area, Kolchak establishes a similarity between the new killings and the murders committed by Jack The Ripper. The killer soon reveals himself to possess superhuman characteristics, and Kolchak suspects that they may be dealing with the original Ripper after all.

 

Reporter Carl Kolchak is now in Seattle, Washington, trying to solve the mystery of several strangulations that recur every few years where the victims are drained of blood in this second made for TV pilot.

 

Episode 1 of a brand new commentary show as Gill and Newty work their way through the Kolchak movies and TV series.

Newty is a huge fan of the show, even owning a book about it, Gill has never seen it before. Join us as we watch along and attempt to debate the finer issues of this classic show that helped inspire Chris Carter’s The X Files. Expect swearing, bad puns and crackpot theories.
