The Ripper (1988)
In Los Angeles ermordet ein Serienkiller nach dem berüchtigten Muster von Jack the Ripper reihenweise Prostituierte. Die Polizei hat den Medizinstudenten John Westford als Verdächtigen im Visier, doch dieser begeht kurz darauf Selbstmord. Sein Zwillingsbruder Rick glaubt jedoch nicht, dass sein Bruder sich umgebracht hat, sondern dass er Opfer des wahren Täters wurde. Auf eigene Faust macht er sich auf die Jagd nach dem modernen Jack the Ripper...
