The Streets of San Francisco: Tower Beyond Tragedy (1972)
Stone (Karl Malden) and Keller (Michael Douglas) match wits with Amory Gilliam, a wealthy but demented executive who "molds" his women into his own special image of perfection--then murders them if they fail to live up to his standards, or dare to walk out on him. Gilliam's latest girlfirend is Toni Craig (Stefanie Powers), who he has "re-invented" as Kim Ahern. Racing against time, the detectives hope to save Toni/Kim from meeting the same grisly fate as her unfortunate predecessors. (Ironically, Edward Mulhare played a far more benign "Pygmalion" of women as Henry Higgins during the original Broadway run of "My Fair Lady"). ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
- Director(s):
- Walter E. Grauman
