(1976)Directed by Tom Gries184 minCrime, Drama, Thriller, TV Movie, Horror
“WHISPER IT LIKE A CURSE!”

Vincent Bugliosi (George DiCenzo), a Los Angeles prosecutor, wants to convict the man behind two mass murders, even though that man never touched a victim. Tom Gries follows the case from the first investigation through the trial of Charles Manson (Steve Railsback) and the followers who call themselves his family. Bugliosi keeps building toward a courtroom where everything depends on proving what one man made other people do.
