Crimewave

(1985)Directed by Sam Raimi83 min · PG-13Comedy, Crime, Horror
“Extermination is not just a business. It's a way of life”

Vic Ajax (Reed Birney) is a nervous security-alarm technician who just wants to work up the nerve to ask Nancy (Sheree J. Wilson) out. Then the owner of his company is killed by two exterminator hitmen, hired by his own partner, and Vic is framed for it. Sam Raimi has him tell it from the electric chair, where he is strapped in and counting down the time left to clear his name.
