Synopsis by Mark Deming
In this thriller, a serial killer with a difference meets the law in an unexpected way. A murderer is on the loose whose deadly obsession is dismembering women who attend law school; a beautiful female lawyer decides something must be done, and offers herself as bait to lure the criminal into a trap. But it turns out that the fiend is more clever than anyone expected, and he seems to have friends in high places who don't want him to be caught. Psychopath stars Madchen Amick as the attorney in danger and also features Bruce Dinsmore and Chris Mulkey.
